Week 1 down and now on to #2

Last week was fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed all the berry picking. The nature study of goats was so fun, we get to do it again today! All the books are so wonderful, I have never read such beautiful works! Benjamin has been saying, keep reading, don't stop! He said so many times last week - I love school! I love school! I love math! The only thing we're going to struggle with is going to be writing and doing his own reading. I've told him that right now, he needs to be reading to me at least for 10-15 minutes a day. For writing, I'm going to gradually work him up to 2 verses for copy work. I also have available for him a notebook for creative writing.
Well, I'm looking forward to another wonderful week. I'll leave with a few pictures from last week.
Enjoy!

  1. Beautiful pictures! You should add pictures of the children with their nicknames on your sidebar. That way, people will know who you're talking about when they read your posts.

    We found lots of wild blackberries near our pond. Aren't they scrumptious? I feel like Jo in little women!!

  2. Jeff says that it feels like we are in the pioneer days, he feels like Pa Ingals. I love the nature!
