This kid cracks me up. He insisted on the half naked fireman get-up for his movie.
This is his first ‘official’ memorization assignment.
We are following First Language Lessons for the Well-Trained Mind: Level 1 (Second Edition) (First Language Lessons). I have an older version that includes the first two years and I went through the whole book with Lily. We just started it with Ian. It is an awesome home schooling resource. It focuses on:
- memorization
- story summary and narration
- grammer (they memorize several list like all the prepositions)
- copy and dictation
It is all in short interactive lessons. Super easy, literally you read from a script. It was so complete, especially with the grammer that I learned lots of stuff … that I managed to graduate from college without knowing.
I really recommend these books. Even if you aren’t home schooling it would be a great tool to use in the evenings. 15 minute for most of the assignments max and it is fun interactive learning.
