And so Begins Term 3, WEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

Now, it's all down hill from here!

Okay, notes so far...
~ handicraft for the term - basket weaving
~ Composer - Maurice Ravel
~ Artist - Raphael
~ Foreign Language - very intermediate beginning introduction of Spanish
~ Art instruction - try DWC again
~ Music instruction - continue working on what theory we can
~ Folk songs - listen to our CD and choose three songs to memorize
~ Hymn songs - that's easy, we sing at church and each night! - learn 3 new songs
~ Poetry - Fujikawa, memorize 2 poems
~ History - Our Island Story, Trial & Triumph, Viking Tales
~ American History - Buffalo Bill (along with Pioneers and the Oregon Trail)
~ Geography - Paddle, continue our journey to the sea!
~ Bible - continue in Judges, memorize a Psalm
~ Science - continue with birds, lessons in wildflowers / parts of the flower
~ Nature study - walks and filling up those nature journals! (we will attend a group Nature Study walk with NWCH) possibly obtain a membership to Desert Botanical Gardens
~ Physical Education - bike riding, neighborhood walks, jumping rope, choose a sport to learn, work on upper arm strength
~ Socialization - weekly attendance at worship services and classes; periodic fellowship with fellow members at VCoC; NWCH (CM group - Free Enterprise Day, Inventions, possible zoo day?); WVCH (park days, field trips, no co-ops just yet); periodic visits to local nature centers - converse with employees; visits to Daddy's work - converse with other adults (maybe twice)

And that's all just yr. 1 to think about for one week (well mostly)! And we must continue with our year 0 and soon transition to 0.5. Woohoo! As far as the schedule goes, I think (for now at least) we have something down that works for us.

For week 25 (1 for term 3) we will be in NM. I will be house and Grandmother sitting for my parents. I'll have to try to get us out to the mountains while we're there! I am looking forward to the fresh start a new term brings each time. I'm looking forard to learning new things!
I have been so thankful for the group email lists through Ambleside, the encouragement and all the tips have been wonderful!

Now to just take a deep breath and dive in!
WEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! It is time for term threeeeeeeeeeeee!

TTFN!
