Where are you planning to go? I must have missed that in an earlier thread. Hope you get off sooner rather than later.

I've heard of the word game in English, and I can't even begin to imagine how one plays it in Chinese. How does Chinese spelling work? I thought the characters represented syllables and words rather than individual letters.

Well, we did:
*Two reading lessons with Elias
*ReadyWriter (boys)
*Calculadder (girls)--both girls finished the whole sheet in under two minutes! Now, if they can just do it neatly...
*Handwriting: "O" words for Olivia; Cursive chart for Anna Kate, and also practice writing her name
*Readers--once we finish these, I'm taking a break until fall.
*Language: Finding direct quotations in the Little Red Hen; introducing indirect quotations; copywork
*History: SOTW--Julius Caesar and the pirates; SOTR--Cincinnatus, the farmer hero
*Geography: Found Cincinnati, OH on the U.S. map.

Actually, we're just doing the stuff that I enjoy. It's more fun this way.
