Week 4 of 7th Grade Homeschool

In my life this week…

My hubby had a birthday! The kids helped make a cake, and give him a party. Fun stuff!!

In our homeschool this week…

In Bible: We studied Jacob and Esau. Our memory verse for this week is Matt 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness: and all these things shall be added unto you. We memorize one scripture a week. Read more about that here.

In Abeka Math: We reviewed fractions, mixed numbers, improper fractions, changing them back and forth and reducing fractions to the simplest form.

In Art: We're still studying color, primary, secondary and now complementary colors.

Helpful homeschooling tips or advice to share…

We love freebies, I have some here on this blog. Feel free to look around and download them.

I am inspired by…

The word of God, and His unconditional love.

Places we’re going and people we’re seeing…

We had a fun family shopping trip to a neighboring city.

My favorite thing this week was…

A short unit study on Alice in Wonderland that we're giving a whirl. So far it's working out great. Some of the ideas we're using come from here, at Easy Fun School.

What’s working/not working for us…

Our days have been rushed the last couple of weeks, and we've not kept up with PE or Nature Studies the way we expected to. We plan to get back into both this week. ~~Knock on wood.

Things I’m working on…

Organizing my kitchen.

I’m reading…

actually, have read Understood Betsy 1916 novel for children by Dorothy Canfield Fisher. Yes it's a children's book, but well worth the read for any age. It can be read for free here.

I’m cooking…

Cheddar Beef

I’m grateful for…

The privilege to homeschool.

I’m praying for…

hurting people.
