We are getting back into the swing of things and starting to touch on our enrichment activities.
For our Art and Music Appreciation
we are covering an artist and composer a month using The World’s Greatest Composers & Artists Unit Studies from Erica at Confessions of a Homeschooler.
These Unit Studies use the Getting to Know the World’s Greatest Artist & Composters Series
by Mike Venezia.
We are also covering a Missionary each month for our World Geography Units. This month we are learning about North American and are reading about Cameron Townsend from the Christian Heroes: Then & Now Series by YWAM.
We completed different activities from our learning center to re-enforced some of our lessons this week. A few of the big hits where these math games:
Chips & Farkle
Roll and Spell for Spelling List Practice:
and various items from our Continent Boxes.
We had a FULL week. We worked hard at our follow through on getting checked off each day before calling a close to our school part of the day. This is one of the areas I want to be more intentional about this year –and this is an area I need to work on and follow through on my part.
At the end of the week we had a store – using tickets they earned from their responsibility charts - and the girls were able to buy some craft items and treats as a reward for completing our first full week of school.
Over all it was a great week~

I love what your weeks look like. The Mike Venezia books are favorites around here, and your continent boxes are very interesting to me!
