WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS

PRESTON

Preston is back at his routine with math and language arts.  He completes 1-2 lessons of language arts and spends about an hour doing his math lessons.  

He will be completing his tech class at Layton High School this year.  He is taking digital media arts, and is so excited to learn skills that will help him with audio and video recording and editing in the future.  

MARISSA

Marissa has also been working on her language arts and math to get back into a more rigorous study routine for the fall.  Her favorite part, however, has been reading "Anne of Green Gables" this summer.  She received a beautiful set of books for her birthday and couldn't wait to get started reading the series.  

CALEB

Caleb is a rockstar!  He's been working on language arts over the summer so he would be ready for the next level by fall.  He is almost there and is working on completing the last few lessons in his book to be ready to start level 4 in September.

SUMMER LEARNING

We had so much fun learning about and working in nature this summer.  We built garden boxes and planted a garden.  We added new chicks to our flock and two little ducklings. We also started fermenting feed for our flock and growing wheat grass to add to their food. The kids found tadpoles that we watched grow into little frogs.  We also had an ant farm and caterpillars that we watched become butterflies.  It was so much fun and we are still benefiting from the learning and hands' on knowledge we gained this summer.
