Last Day of First Grade!

Since the Franciscos are coming this afternoon, we’re making today our official last day of school.  We finished most of our books a couple weeks ago but have been finishing up the math book and working on Mark 5.  We have 8 verses left, so we agreed to keep doing memory work over the summer, but it won’t be official “school” work.  Tommy asked to go to the Reagan Library to celebrate the start of summer vacation!

Last math worksheet of the school year.  Much rejoicing!

Our curriculum this year (with Tommy’s assessments of each):

Bible–CBS Romans study (GREAT!  Can’t wait to study Mark, Job, and Philippians in the fall!)

Bible–memorizing Mark (good)

Math–Saxon 2 (Liked it, especially doing bar graphs)

Language Arts–Writing With Ease 1 (Used to be his favorite subject, liked the story days [narration exercises])

Language Arts–First Language Lessons 1 (Really fun, especially memorizing “The Goops”)

French–Little Pim, Mango Connect, Duolingo (liked doing it with Lizzie)

Anatomy–made a human body model and watched Bill Nye videos (Tommy’s favorite)

Geography–hand-me-down workbook (always enjoyed)

Typing–BBC Dance Mat Typing program (liked being in level 3 by the end!)

Fine Arts–Composer Studies, Concerts, Art Trek Fridays, books from the library (all fun)

 

Favorite part of school: anatomy

Least favorite part of school: Writing With Ease (on copywork days)

 

Most looking forward to next year: Veritas Press history!
