OK, we've hit Monday morning with a thud. After having grandparents visiting and the Thanksgiving holiday, our schedule has been uneven for weeks. Both events were wonderful for the kids, but difficult for homeschooling. So, now I have to get back to full curriculum after moving ahead in some classes while lagging completely in others.
One thing that has continued: Samuel shows a natural talent for math. He has been asking questions regarding fractions and percentages. I find ways to illustrate the concept (cutting up circles in one case so he could see that three halves equal 1 and 1 half) and find he quickly grasps the concept. I suppose that is the foundation for any schooling at home -- taking the opportunities as they come.
