We did a few minutes of piano practice.
I read Matthew 2:19-23 and Fina narrated.
We did catechism lesson 14.
Fina finished 16E and 16F of her math. Next we will do the test for making 10 and making 9 and then we will move on to lesson 17.
We worked on her recitations. We had just started Twelfth Night V, i, 226 "One face, one voice" this week and she has it almost completely memorized. She is trying hard to "recite" her passages. It is going remarkably well!
I read "Foe's Fear" from Viking Tales. Fina gave great narrations throughout.
We reviewed all our Spanish nursery rhymes and we sang "De Colores" together. She knows the first verse. I sang through all 4 verses for her. She is enjoying it. I want to start bringing in some vocabulary stuff. I need to get a book first.
She worked on some cursive. I want to have her write "This is the silliest stuff that ever I heard" which is one of her lines from our co-op passage from A Midsummer Night's Dream. She did part of it today.
I read "A Family of Squirrels" from Eyes and No Eyes. Fina gave great narration throughout.
We read two new poems from The Oxford Book of Children's Verse, #131 "The First Tooth" and #132 "Cleanliness."
We sang our hymn and folksong.
Fina read a few pages from Peter Rabbit. She is improving by leaps and bounds!
We listened to Palestrina's "Kyrie" from the Pope Marcellus Mass again. And we talked about the piece a bit more.
Fina spent 20 minutes working on some handicrafts. I asked her to do a few stitches of her crochet, so she did. She also worked on her Japanese braiding. She also wanted to do some woodcarving, so she spent a while doing that.
We listened to some Italian kids' songs by Zecchino D'Oro.
It was very cold today, but Fina got in some outside play time just in our yard.
It was a great day!
