We started reading Little House in the Big Woods today. We talked about the Louisiana Purchase and how opening up all that land allowed people like Laura's family to head west.
Seth did more Khan for math. Jon will pop down occasionally and help with concept explanation as needed. Catherine has been really enjoying Zoombinis. She also played Zeus on the Loose with both me & Aaron (we played regular and reverse, where you start at 100 and try to get to zero. Subtraction is much harder!).
Seth worked more on his project for Catherine. I'm going to have him start working on a learning journal again. Catherine & Aaron both wrote in their learning journals. They always struggle to remember anything they've 'learned' that week, so it's good to force them to think about it and write it down.
Seth finished Hunger Games. Not sure what he's going to read next! Catherine is getting close to the end of Lightning Thief, and Aaron is still reading Mrs. Piggle Wiggle. He doesn't love it, though. I need to find something that will capture his attention.
Aaron had his piano lesson today. He's doing much better, but still not great. His rhythm is amazing, but his playing is very robotic. He says piano is his least favorite part of school. Sigh.
Can't remember exactly what we watched at lunch, but we've finished the Extra History about the Haitian Revolution, plus some Physics Girl, Mark Rober, Minute Physics, and Ted Ed on Galen.
