Term 2 is under way!

November 12th, 2007

Last week we did our oral reviews on Monday and Tuesday and had an off week the rest of the week. Daddy was able to participate and see how much we are learning. It was fascinating and exciting  to see how much he is retaining. 

At the end I asked an additional question. “What is your favorite part of homeschooling?”  He said, reading, copy work and dictation.  I asked him why and he responded with, “I keep doing it a little bit everyday and now I am really good at it.”  Reading and writing were not some of his highlights as we began.  Now he has the confidence to go for it.  Yet another benefit of homeschooling with short lessons. A little bit everyday accomplishes so much.

Dictation is one of his favorite activities.  We are starting slowly with small three word sentences but he enjoys the process.  Tomorrow we are off to see a production of “The Lion The Witch and the Wardrobe”.  We are excited and will post pics then.

Have a great day~
