We Love Rain

Today we started off rough. Amy was ready quite a bit sooner than others for school. Then she was coloring a picture that took long enough to not have her ready when we did start. She decided to skip doing a Pennsylvania page like we were working on. I still struggle with being ok with kids choosing out of school activities. That's how I want to be. Plus computers were having trouble. We use them a lot for reference when making our state pages.

For a lesson today, I asked the girls to read to me the rest of the reading lesson for our scripture study reading lesson book. Lots of resistance. Finally they both did.

Amy and Eliza wanted to go outside for their activities so we saved that for the end.

Noel had a difficult time choosing so we came back to her.

We read a couple library books for reading class.

Then Noel chose to play Memory for her activity. HER WAY. Which she made up as she went along. It wasn't really a game, but I think the main purpose was served. We all did something HER WAY and mostly stuck it out even though it didn't make much sense. I think Noel likes that.

Amy said closing prayer, and we went outside for more activities. We rode bikes and raced. My chain eventually fell off. Doh. Then we played some T-ball. It rained about half the time we were out there, and that made it more fun.

We were going to plant lettuce for closing class but decided against it in the rain. So we're done.
