Play Date

Robin had a play date at a park with one of the kids from his soccer team and had a great time.

I read to him.

Including a book about the Titanic.

And one about the seasons.

Puppetry

Robin attended his Mt. Airy Homeschool Co-Op classes in puppetry, the jungle and Ancient African Civilizations.  He is particularly enjoying the puppetry class and is apparently developing a short show with a classmate that is a retelling of Humpty Dumpty.

I also read to him.

Including a book indirectly referencing the solar system.

And a book about Johnny Appleseed and the Butter Battle Book which prompted a conversation about the Cold War.

"I know them all!"

Robin worked with Saxon Math 1.

He did a word worksheet.  "E" words seem to be easier for him - he's looking at them and saying 'I know them all [how to sound out all the letters in each word]' in a disappointed tone because he likes having me tell him one of the sounds from each word.  I'm trying to persuade him that this is actually a GOOD thing!  I read to him.

Including a book about the legend of Androcles and the Lion.

Robin went for a bike ride.
