School Week 5 2012/2013

This week A10 read the book From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler and X10 read the book Higgins Bend Song and Dance.  I'm not making A10 do a summary for every single book she reads, she'll do two books in a row and then I'll give her a couple of easier books to just read.

X8 however is doing some type of literary response to every single book we read.  Not the same thing every time, and mostly requires him to draw something, which he doesn't seem to mind at all anymore.  I bought him several how to draw books and they have really built up his confidence in drawing!!

A10 is asking for a more advanced drawing book... she wants to be able to draw animals with more realistic details... I haven't found the right book yet.
