We read two chapters in SOTW, Ch. 17-18. Peter the Great/Great Northern War and the Ottoman Turks. We've been watching an Extra History about the Great Northern War that corresponds to this.
Seth worked on Khan. He's 68% done with pre-algebra. Catherine did a Problem of the Week about a cow escaping its pasture. She had to calculate time in minutes, then add it to find what time the cow returned. She did it completely independently and got it completely correct. Both of us were very proud. Aaron did a page out of MI with multiplication word problems. He had absolutely no trouble. He also rediscovered Prodigy and spent a while playing the 2nd grade level. Some things are super easy for him, others are a challenge.
For their new projects, Seth picked writing a novel for NaNoWriMo. His goal is to write at least 400 words per day. Catherine picked to engineer a structure using MagnaTiles that will reach to the ceiling of the family room. Aaron picked to learn about weapons.
Aaron had a piano lesson. He hates getting new songs and would prefer to just keep playing his old ones.
Seth read a chapter out of World of Physics. He was super impressed with all the descriptions of different waves and how they worked. He said it was the best chapter out of the book so far. He also has been working on creating an event in the Roblox game he's making with his friend Emberse.
They all spent a lot of time playing playdough. Catherine created a 3D house out of dough, complete with yard and hay bale.
