Weekly Wrap Up, April 18-21

In an attempt to show y'all what we do around here (which is not watch TV and eat bon bons, sadly) and also to keep myself accountable (which is the real reason) I thought I'd start posting an overview of what we've done each week. I've also heard this is helpful in noticing weak areas in our regimen.

If you're also a homeschooler, feel free to link up your own school schedule in the comments section!

Week of April 18-21 (we school 4 days per week)

Memory Work: Books of the Bible up to Nehemiah, "The Moon" by Robert Louis Stevenson, weights and measures, days/weeks/months in a year, seconds, minutes and hours.

Latin: Nothing. We did no Latin this week. Bad Classical homeschoolers, bad!

In my defense of my slacker week, we've all had a cold. See? This accountability thing is working already. Next week we'll be really rigorous!
