I know that we haven't posted since October of 2011, but my New Year's resolution is to be much better about it. School started yesterday. It was much better than I feared. Topics for the month of January are Geometry, US History, and Magnets and Electricity.
The major project for the end of January will connect Geometry and Magnets. Using a compass, mapping skills, and measuring to follow a trial and map the features along the way. I'm still working on the actual wording of the assessment. With the lack of snow, following a trail will be easy. However, I'm not sure what the end of January will be like. We are covered though- we can get out the snow shoes if necessary.
The Library group didn't work out. The content of the reading material did not reflect our choices. We still frequent the library, choosing materials which are more appropriate.
Dance class begins on Saturday. We will be reading about Jazz and Tap dancing. This will further our understanding of the dance class.
Well, back to planning...
