Yesterday Cimeron and I had to go to Yreka... so no formal homeschool for us. I'm not sure what Keith and Aaron did at home.
Today Keith read to the kids: a story about the childhood of Paul Revere, and a traditional Christmas poem: "The Night Before Christmas". Yes, they are already looking forward to that. Next was reading from a book about the Middle East, and a discussion of what they were learning from that book.
After that was my math class, which I am usually wildly enthusiastic about. I set the kids up with some math to do -- Aaron is practicing multiplication in his notebook. Cimeron is working on a practical math website about
trips. She did two pages this time - about the cost of using different types of cars, and about car rental costs. I'm having her read the website, then show her computations in her notebook. Later I'll make up some similar problems for her to show what she's learned.
