Back in the Saddle

No school last week. Matt and I had a retreat that we were preparing for and then attending.

Monday we did quick school before a birthday party so no opening or closing routine.

Yesterday I taught Joy School so we had no home school.

Today we were back in business. For Mom Class, we had a reading lesson that only got halfway through before kids were too wiggly.

Noel chose art kit. We drew pictures and painted.

Amy chose "pen and book". There's an electronic pen thing you can use to read these special books. You hover over words, and the pen reads them. Amy therefore also got a lesson in changing batteries. She did the whole thing herself, including unscrewing the plate thing that covers them. Awesome!

This is not related to school, but I just want to mention that Amy taught herself to ride a two wheeled bike yesterday. She just started pedaling instead of using her feet. It was awesome! She was so proud, and so were we. We did very little helping her in the last few weeks. She just built up her confidence. Now it's all she wants to do.
