Weekly Wrap Up and the Holiday Plan

 

We had a week of this and that and everything but very little sit down school.  So little in fact that we are revamping the next couple of weeks.  This week was supposed to be the letter Hh and various other math and such, but it turned into a visiting and TV week.  I think each of the older girls did a page of math.

 

We watched some Cartoon Retro. (A TV station of all those cartoons dh and I grew up watching.  Man, are they lame, but my kids love them as much as I remember loving them!)  And we played with play dough.  And we did puzzles.  We decorated the tree for Christmas.  We colored some pictures.  We read a bunch of books.  We went to the library.  We had a Christmas party with Grandmas Irene.  We did some baking.  We took a late night trip to the city to buy a truck.  We watched movies.  We played with blocks.  We pulled out the magnetic dolls.

 

So the math and the science will wait for another week.  The books aren’t going anywhere.  We are learning in other ways.  And for the next month we will continue this trend.

 

Next week we were supposed to do the letter Jj. Well, we’re gonna postpone Hh and Jj until after Christmas.  For the next month we are going to do Christmas stuff.  I can’t wait.  We are going to do baking.  We hope to make some gifts, maybe.  We are going to color and do worksheets.  We are going to read stories.  We plan to go sledding.  Jason wants to decorate outside so the kids will help with that too.  We’ll go shopping for Christmas gifts.  We’re gonna have a couple of special dinners.  There are Christmas parties and choir recitals.  A Christmas Eve service.  There is no lack of activity to keep my munchkins busy in the month of December.

 

Apparently there is no linky for this week because of Black Friday.  I just don’t get the Black Friday stuff.  I guess it’s like Canada’s Boxing Day, but I don’t get that either, so . . . .
