Yesterday was a nice day.
We started our morning with some book work and time at the table. Elijah reviewed some math concepts and then we played "Multiplication Memory" several times together.
Math games are definitely more effective for him than worksheets.
Tove played "Subtraction Corners" with me as well.
We got to our writing and grammar stuff in the early evening because we had afternoon plans, and math games always take a lot of time.
Our afternoon was filled with our homeschool club. The group is so big that we are renting a community hall now! The fabulous moms who organize it had fun, silly games and several crafts to chose from. After the crowds around the craft tables died down, he happily immersed himself in creating something.
It caught on, because near the end of it, Elijah was ready to do the same, as was his best friend, D.
Up to this point, Elijah had been outside running around in the SNOW having light sabre duals with a few other boys.
After they had finished their crafting, the kids broke off into their book club groups. This group read "The Witches" by Roald Dahl, so here the group is discussing the book with our fabulous ever-energetic crazy mom friend, J.
The boys and I started to read "The Gammage Cup", but the way it is written is a bit confusing to them. So we are going to wait a couple more years for that one.
