Week 9 of Homeschool: We did spelling crossword puzzles, created art in the style of Georgia O’Keefe, learned forms of the verb “to lay,” counted with dimes and pennies, read “The Negro Woman’s Appeal To Her White Sisters” and looked at related scripture, learned about Latin conjugations, skip-counted our 15s, worked on word roots and endings, diagrammed sentences, learned the parts of the circulatory system, wrote a paper about Thomas Jefferson, gave presentations on our original comic book series, worked on our typing skills, marked all 50 states on our maps, learned new Latin words and reviewed what we’ve learned so far, hung with friends at the park, visited a real radio station where we watched mom interview and perform her music, and got tons of candy at our cousin’s trunk-or-treat, our church’s fall festival, the Citrus Heights Police Department, and Classical Conversations!
