Week 2, Day 6

Hmmm.. I'm not sure I can keep up the titles this way.  I guess we'll see.

TC is playing math games on the computer (Sheppard's Software).  I'm getting ready to set up my laptop for TS to work on Starfall.com.

So here is today's work listed...  TS read 8 stories on Starfall & played some of the games.  She's really doing well with her reading.  There are still words that stump her, but I think it's more b/c she's looking at the picture & trying to guess the word, rather than actually looking at the word.

Then she moved onto Multiplication.com & did some of the online adding quizzes.  I love those, b/c they're self grading & simple for the kids to do. 

TC also did some stories on Starfall & played some of the games.  She also played some of the games on Sheppard's Software's site.  She moved to Multiplication.com & did an adding quiz (only b/c we couldn't figure out how to get to where we wanted to be.  We finally figured that out, so she did a couple of multiplication quizzes - Ones & Twos.  It seems to be taking a little bit for her to figure out the concept, but she'll get it.

C did the multiplication (Nines) quiz.  She said she missed 0 & did it in just over 2 1/2 minutes (I think.)  She also did a couple of typing speed tests. 

I cut K's hair, then he went to take a shower.  I was outside w/ C & found several cicada carcasses.  We'd see a couple of dead ones (the actual bug, not carcasses) the other day, so I called the T's out to see them as well.  They all thought they were pretty creepy.  :))

It's lunchtime now, so I'll be back later w/ the rest of our day.

K was quizzing the T's & C w/ Brain Quest cards.  He also did a lot of stuff w/ his Roblox worlds.
