It was supposed to be a no-schooling day today, but since Fina is still quite sick, we didn't want to go to the indoor playgroup we usually attend on Tuesdays, so as not to spread our germs. We will go to the outdoor playgroup in the afternoon, because germs are much harder to spread outside!!!
Anyway, we decided to do a bit of school work. We finished up 19F in math and started chapter 20, adding hundreds together. We did 20A and B. She is doing well.
We also learned a new cursive letter, the letter f. It is a tricky one, as it is the first one that goes below the line. She is trying hard.
Today showed me something. It took us 40 minutes to do just these two things. Even when she is not frustrated or complaining or fussing, it still takes her a lot of time to accomplish things. Just because she is always wandering around in her mind. Wanting water, thinking of questions to ask, stopping to go to lalaland!
So, other homeschoolers: take heart!!!
Update: Oh my, I just looked ahead at our math curriculum. The next chapter is solving for the unknown. "? + 6 = 9." That will be interesting! I'm a bit afraid, but I will just trust the process.
