Ruby started with guitar practicing at 8:30 and was ready for school at 9. She wrote a brief book report on Number the Stars, and we talked about the book before I left to take Xanthe to piano. Coco came over and they did some writing. Ruby's writing is really good. I like to see the process in her notebook that she and Coco go through to get the finished product. I'm going to have Ruby post her writing on the blog, to help with keyboarding and for proofreading.
After creative writing, it was math at school. She got her math homework done there, came home for lunch and got started on a science packet on heat. She finished that while I taught violin, and copied down her new spelling list. I gave her a pre-test on the map of Europe and she studied the countries. As soon as she can get 100% on a test of the countries, we'll start on memorizing the capitals. hopefully by Monday, since next week is our last week of this unit. Now she is reading for 30 minutes in the book we started today, The Devil's Arithmetic. If she stays on the ball, she'll be able to get her last 30 minutes of practicing done before ballet and be free from 5 until 6, when we go to the church to prepare for New Beginnings tonight! Good job, Ruby!
