Thursday

The week is almost over and I feel as though nothing got done.  Or more accurately, nothing I planned got done.  Lessons are progressing and this week was filled with activity.

Tuesday: The kids had music class.  They learned about flats and sharps.  Thankfully, we have a wonderful music teacher because the only thing flats and sharps brings to my mind is forks and knives.

Wednesday: Discussion Group.  We watched Jumanji and everyone brought in their favorite board game.  Everyone gave a little presentation about the game they brought in and why it was their favorite.  They discussed the different games.  Then they discussed the movie-likes and dislikes, actions and consequences, and if they would like to play that game.  Then they discussed an essay by Benjamin Franklin and how life is like a game of Chess.  The discussion finished off with their breaking into teams and playing a Jumanji trivia game.  They had a great time.

The bathroom renovation continues.  The plumbing and electrical inspector come tomorrow and the building inspector comes on Monday.  One day I will have a bathroom.
