{ Week 4 }

This week we did Cleopatra & Mark Antony.


Now while they actually did end up with some writing, you know what I think?  Outlining lends itself to producing much better work.  So while I like the interactive notebook thing, yeah, outlining does a superior job of teaching writing.  It just produces more, much more, I think.  So on that, I might go back to some mind mapping and transfer that over to an outline and see what we can get out of that.  Just some thoughts there.


The girls did a *little* more Greek.


Hats abounded.



More free time free styled drawings.



An activity for one of the girls.


I also got the girls to check out this months calendar and fill in the numbers for it.


Another activity for a girl one day.


Another add on activity throughout the week.


This week I get to show you Hannah's work.  She totally aced this activity this week!  Yay!!  But the proof will be in the pink pudding test booklet though. :o)


Now while Hannah will write out her spelling words I am often finding a bunch of scribbles with them.  I find her drawings ALL OVER the place.


Hopefully by the time she's 9 her work will look more along this line.


Our gorgeous little Noah.


Phebe saying hello. :o)


This week I'll be joining up with:


 I hope you'll join us.

Thanks for visiting.

  1. Your boy is cute! I have yet to try out interactive notebooking myself. My kindergartener hates the cutting and gluing that's why I've been holding off. Hannah seems to be progressing well with her vocabulary! I struggle to teach vocabulary to my 2nd grader! It's amazing how you can homeschool your girls with a newborn. Hats off to you!
