June 10, 2009 (Wednesday)

We didn't have mom school today. I had a Primary Presidency meeting. By the time I got home nobody wanted to do it. That's why it's summer. Choices!

On the way to our scholar school today we listened to more Spanish. The kids are really starting to get some of it. I highly recommend Power Glide!

Olivia: Read her scriptures, chores, defined her 10 words from Thomas Paine, answered the questioned to Common Sense by Thomas Paine, went to scholar school and discussed Common Sense, word of the day, practiced singing, watched Cranford with me (her brain was friend from 5 hours of Thomas Paine) and played golf.

Jared: Read his scriptures, chores, cleaned his hamster gage, read for 3 hours, practiced his piano lesson and played a lot.

Luke: Read his scriptures, chores, read several random picture books, got lots of good exercise outside, and had fun.


Caleb: Read his scriptures, chores, read several picture books, played outside a lot and had fun.

Family (in the evening):
Song: How Firm a Foundation
Scripture Memorization: 2 Nephi 25:26
Family Scripture Study: Acts 6

To Show Parent Core/Love of Learner/Scholar here are some things we modeled to the children today...
Deanna: Scriptures, word of the day, had a Presidency meeting, practiced my piano recital piece, read for several hours and finished my reading assignment in the The History of the Peloponnesian, mowed the rest of the lawn, "summerized" the library room, and watched several issues of Cranford. (Yes, I splurged I never watch the television. The Peloponnesian Wars had fried my brain!)
Alex: Scriptures, word of the day, went to work, prepared his presentation for a county financial class the judge and prosecuting attorney asked his to put on, listening to Master and Commander, listening to The Great Improvisation, had a Bishopric Meeting, and went to mutual.
