Ah, back to the grind.
We are in physics, science and latin today. New science, the book that he's love love loving. New Latin, we switched to Wheelock and he's doing a perusal day and it's continue on with the system we have in place for physics. All good. I'm going to jump online to some Wheelock links and see if I can find work pages, not worksheets (hahaha) for him to use as practice.
I like how this year is shaping up, I like that the Banker is so into the 2001 book. I spoke to a friend of mine this weekend and he also suggested the Rama books when we are finished this segment. I hope the Banker continues to enjoy the choices we're making.
I spoke to a local educator friend this weekend about how we're doing and she didn't send any red flags my way, you know along the 'i'm breaking him' theory. She is going to reintroduce me to friends of hers, also educators, and we're going to see about getting a couple of science projects for the Banker to complete after this Arthur Clarke series we seem to be doing. Two of the friends are science educators here in town and work in or around the Banker's grade level so it ought to be great. I'll keep you posted on that one.
It's Canadian thanksgiving today, I grew up there. A friend thought thanksgiving in October sounded like a fabulous idea so she's preparing all the sides for a feast, her mother is roasting a turkey and I'm on bread and dessert. I made ciabatta, baguettes and rolls already and just pulled a dump cake out of the oven. All good!
He is working, I am working... I'll update later!
