April 19

Ria -

Drafting
6 "easy" pages of Math (Key-to Algebra)
one short exercise in Henle
Terminology and regular Latin cards
Science - Notetaking on Biology the Easy Way and Vocabulary Word Cards
Religion - read from Sacramentum Caritatis

Gus -

Math-U-See Delta (3 pages)
Railroad Engines around the World Coloring Book
Constructed another paper Space Shuttle
Latina Christiana II

Terri -

Read a chapter of Pinocchio
Stories from the New Testament
Math-U-See Beta (2 pages - I need to get her a new book as she's working through the extra material in the back - she's eager to start the next book)
Spelling Book - 1 page
Studied Latin Cards - independently and with me
Started new CHC Grammar Book (one page)

Bernie -

Math U See Alpha - 2 pages
1 Language Arts Learning Palette (after which we discussed that she can't just pick the easiest one to do!)
2 pages of phonics (MCP)
1 Chapter Faith and Life Book 2
4 pages of "We Celebrate the Eucharist" (the book our parish requires for her First Communion)
She was stuck on one of the questions (this book asks a lot of open-ended questions like "How Can You Show God's Love to Others") and I went looking for a book to help her, but stumbled upon Little Acts of Grace by Rosemarie Gortler and Donna Piscitelli. We read the whole thing and it is quite beautiful - even if not EXACTLY on topic!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

What this afternoon looks like - Rosetta Stone Chinese for Terri, Bernie and Gus (this has been mostly shelved lately, but we're expecting a visitor for dinner on Sunday - a recently baptized TAC grad who's from China - so interest has suddenly soared).

Gym class for Ria and Gus (little ones get to play with friends)

Read two chapters of King of the Golden City to Bernie.

Ria started Father Marquette and the Great Rivers.

Ria and Gus watched Paul: Contending for the Faith (Footprints of God Series)
