Now, AppleBlossom (9) is reading aloud while the red Mermaid Warrior (18mo) keeps stealing stuffed animal Paddington, the Rascal (4) is climbing through the laundry basket of baby toys, and the Princess (7) is coloring her drawing from…

Charlotte’s Web (Literature)
We have been slow going with Literature study. This girl just loathes comprehension questions and discussion (oral or written). HOWEVER, she seems to finally be sticking to task (if begrudgingly) with her favorite book, no less. đź“š #memoriapressthirdgrade #memoriapress #charlottesweb #homeschool #homeschoolmama #literature from Instagram: http://ift.tt/2mRDdbd

Laughing at myself – curriculum thoughts
Today I stumbled across an old forum post that I wrote about this time last year. I hope I’m not too late to join the party! The Princess, is my “spirited” four year old. Night and day scholastic comparison to her sister (my six year old accelerated student, finishing second grade) so it is quite the adventure to try to understand her. We have been using Preschool, then SC:A-C. With the older, it was checkbox it all and keep trekking. With the Princess, we have two good days and then she refuses it all and prefers disruption and drama. I’ve given up on structure with her for now. We pick…

Memoria Press Second Grade {Review – Part I}

In 2011, I added a second child to the mix and my toddler was antsy to get more attention in addition to being a little mama. We dabbled a bit with a book box curriculum of good nursery readers, however, it was in 2012-2013 that our Memoria Press adventure started. At the age of three, my book-loving daughter started in on our K3 Junior Kindergarten with an extremely wonderful year that we still look back on with extremely…
