We're DONE!!!!!!

Wow. It feels so good to be DONE with 1A!! I just can't believe we got here. I know you are laughing at me, but it just feels so good to see that we are doing SOW the way it was meant to be done!! We'll be taking these last two weeks before Christmas off to do a few crafts and we'll use Simple Homeschool's Christmas school stuff probably too. Can you believe it's Christmas time? Wow! Time is sure moving fast.

Recap of 1A12...

Let's see, we learned about Joseph as I mentioned in the last post. My son did the creative writing assignment, which was really neat to see. He wrote a letter to a man named Bob about why he was in prison & what it was like.

Here it is:

Dear Bob,

I am in because I told Saul about God. The prison is very old. I get a roll, potato, greens & plenty of water. My body hurts the way I sleep. God is helping me though.

Write back.

Love, Superkid

P.S. Here is a verse that helped me. Psalm 55:17 - Evening and morning and noon I will pray, and cry aloud, and He shall hear my voice.

Cute wasn't it? I thought so. There were a few misspelled words and several non capitalized sentences or missing punctuation marks, but we worked through those. I didn't think he did too bad though. ;o)

Anyway, this past month was a little rough on time and resources, so we weren't able to do the field trips and experiments like I wanted. Oh well. I have a few pictures I'd like to post, but it's just not happening. We did get a new camera, but now I am having issues with the USB ports on my laptop. Sorry guys!

Oh, we watched a video about the moon that we got from the library. We did chart the moons phases & quizzed ourselves on them. Also, we have been charting what the moon looks like this month. This month it is hard to remember to look at the moon though, since there are so many other things on our mind! Maybe I should post the calendar page up by their bed so that they remember before they go to sleep.

Well, I guess that's it. I'll see you next year!

(Unless of course we do something really fun in the meantime that I just have to share...)
