We had a great Manitoba Charlotte Mason Enrichment evening last night. We were 11 moms. We did a discussion on narration and then we spent some time doing a dry-brush of a pussywillow branch. It was really wonderful!
We're continuing to read The Wizard of Oz as our free read. Fina is enjoying it. So far, I find that the movie is surprisingly faithful to the book, which is neat. (Fina has not seen the movie.)
I read Matthew 5:13-16. Fina worked on her recitations. We finished reading Benajmin Franklin by the D'Aulaires and Fina narrated throughout.
We finished Peppa se va a dormir in Spanish.
We read "A Fisherman Robbed" in The Burgess Bird Book. We read about the Osprey and the Bald Eagle. We watched this very cool video of an Osprey swooping down on fish.
I read poem #179, "The Mouse and the Cake" by Eliza Cook in The Oxford Book of Children's Verse.
We did chapter 19 of catechism and read the section about Holy Week as well.
We sang our hymn and folksong.
Fina read aloud from Benjamin Bunny.
We re-read Me on the Map.
And we spent many hours outside at the 6th birthday party of our little friend J. It was a great day!
We've skipped a few days of piano practice. We have had a few late nights and Fina has been sleeping in and I've been wanting to finish by lunch. We will get things back on track!
