Week of May 14 Homeschool Wrap-Up
Theme for our studies this week…. This will be my last Homeschool Wrap-Up for this school year. Summer will soon be here! This week we finished up our state studies and reviewed over stuff we’ve learned about the USA this year.
A great book/s we read…. This is not a book that we read together in school, but it’s a book I read this week and absolutely loved, Maximal Reserve by Sam Batterman….it’s a Christian thriller. Awesome, awesome book.One lesson or interesting fact we learned…. We learned that Hawaii actually has 124 little islands that are seldom talked about, one of them owned privately.
We had a lightbulb moment this week…. Jacob is starting to remember his times tables from memory, after much study.
As Mom/teacher, I found this week to be…. almost a relief, as we finished up our My Father’s World studies for 3rd grade. We still have some extras to finish up and some time to get in; Missouri homeschool law requires a certain number of hours in a school year.
A favorite hands-on project…. We played with our Estimation Station from Educational Insights (review to come soon).Favorite extracurricular activity (if any this week)…. Jacob had his tournament last weekend for Tae Kwon Do. He won a ribbon and had a good time.

We laughed when…. we watched Turbo Dogs and when we played games this week.
Craft idea for this week…. I put together a Vacation Creation Station for our summer roadtrip. This will help the kids not only to stay occupied in the car but provide a great keepsake we’ll treasure for years to come.I am praying for my children to…. know God, not as a cruel Dictator Who is out to get them for their sins, but as their Heavenly Father Who loves them so much He sent His Son to die for them.
I am learning to…. believe the above statement and trust Him myself.
My favorite new resource is…. Dare I say Hershey’s Chocolate?:)
Pic of the week…. Got this shot at the tournament last weekend.Now it’s your turn to link up your week and share!
