WEEKLY REVIEW

Another full week. Had to switch Little Girl's math to Teaching Textbooks pre-algebra. Life of Fred fractions just didn't have enough instruction on new ideas for her. I will probably use it as a review for her, like I did for Big Girl. I am also adding Spelling Wisdom dictation to Little Girl's line up. Here is the week's accomplishments. Again, pretty much the same. I just want to keep a record of what we do each week, even if it isn't exciting. :-)
