I am grateful that this week should be a little less crazy than last week. We have four of five days that will be our normal, and I get to be home most evenings, which bodes well for my household. Normal is good.<\/p>\n
Rejoice: Quiet for me, with Bible and prayer\u00a0and writing something and planning, because filling out that daily index card list is working well for me.<\/p>\n
Relate: We\u00a0are switching artists this month.\u00a0We are done with Rembrandt for the moment, and we’ll look at the art of\u00a0Thomas Gainsborough<\/a>. \u00a0And We’ll continue reading about\u00a0Beethoven\u00a0in\u00a0The Story of Beethoven<\/a>, and we’ll listen to\u00a0Symphony No 5 in C minor, Op 67<\/a>.<\/p>\n Remember: We have new things to memorize this month, including Psalm 1,\u00a0Jabberwocky<\/a> by Lewis Carroll, the Shaker song\u00a0Simple Gifts<\/a>, and the hymn\u00a0Nothing But the Blood of Jesus<\/a>\u00a0(those links are all to YouTube videos we’ll watch at some point).<\/p>\n Reason: We’ll continue with math and grammar as we have been. And one boy will continue with his study of JavaScript and Electronics.<\/p>\n Read:\u00a0We’ll read bits of\u00a0The World of Captain John Smith<\/em>,\u00a0Wild Animals I Have Known<\/em>,\u00a0Pilgrim’s Progress<\/em>, Plutarch’s\u00a0Publicola<\/em>,\u00a0Trial and Triumph<\/em>, and\u00a0Treasure Island<\/em>. (Short lessons mean that we’ll be spending 15-20 minutes on each of those, so that list isn’t as long as it seems like.)\u00a0It is time to change poets, so we will start with this book of poems<\/a> by\u00a0William Blake<\/a>\u00a0 . We need to listen to\u00a0Henry V<\/em> Act 2<\/a>, and when we finish Treasure Island<\/em> (hopefully this week), we’ll start on\u00a0Robin Hood.<\/em><\/p>\n Record:\u00a0The younger boys will do copywork and an IEW lesson. The older guy has an essay to complete\u00a0on\u00a0The Scarlet Letter<\/em>, and we all need to add to timelines and such.<\/p>\n Restore: There are plans to be at tae kwon do at least twice this week, and two will have a golf lesson one evening. We’ll see what other rest and family fun we come up with. I know I have several books to finish.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am grateful that this week should be a little less crazy than last week.
