March 2017

 
 

It's been a while since I have updated what Miss Ray is up to in school!
 
 
Well, for starters... she is reading about half of any three or four letter word. Some are obviously harder than others, but it's pretty rewarding to know that she is learning something I am teaching her!
 
 
She is doing basic addition and subtraction daily now. Daily, as in, three days a week.
 
 
The curriculum I am using puts God in the problems and stories, which I love!
 
It gives me the opportunity to share with her more about our Creator.
 
 
 
She has always asked a lot of questions, but lately she has asked even more because I guess the lessons are getting more complex. She will officially start Kindergarten this coming fall, since she didn't turn 5 until after September 1st. I am thinking about starting Jack on some basic "pre-K" stuff at the same time. They three years apart, but he is already so interested in what she does during school time, that I think it would help all of us if he was involved some way.
 
 
Arrow is pretty easy peasy. Maybe twice this whole school year have I had to hold her during the lesson. She is pretty content just sitting back in her little chair, watching Raylea do her lesson.
 
 
 
 
About a month ago Raylea started Karate lessons. She loves it. She is so excited when I tell her it's time to go. It's twice a week and only for thirty minutes and it gives her the opportunity to get some exercise in and burn off any extra energy she may have stored up. She has made some buddies there and gets along great with everyone. It's on Tuesday and Thursdays, so on the days she doesn't have school. Wednesday night is church of course. Saturday is our day to not "be somewhere," although lately there has either been a birthday party or something to do with church friends nearly every single weekend so far this year!
 
 
 
I've had a few different people ask about my daily schedule, so I will start working on that and that can be my next post, hopefully!
 
 
I included a few updated pictures!
 
 
Have a great day!
