Friday- Week in Review for Grayson

Grayson is my junior.

Language Arts
Grayson read selections from EMC’s World Lit. This week he read a selection from Don Quixote.

He completed his homework for comp class using IEW and Mother Tongue and worked a little in Queen’s Language Lessons.

Precalculus
On Wednesday he went to the math tutor. He is using a Sullivan Precalculus text. He is almost finished with Chapter 1 Equations, Inequalities, and Functions.

Chemistry
Well, he finally finished Chapter 2. Aarrgh, Chemistry is my nemesis!

History
This week in Glencoe high school World History Grayson read about exploration and expansion.

He also watched lectures 8 through 10 from The Teaching Company’s A History of England from the Tudors to the Stuarts. The final lecture dealt with Henry the VIII divorce from Catherine of Aragon and his split from the Catholic church- exciting stuff!

Economics
This Tuesday he attended his one semester economics class using ABeka

Arts
Grayson watched lecture 6 from The Teaching Company’s The Art of the Northern Renaissance.

Volleyball
Grayson’s first game was last night. Grayson's serves were consistent and definitely helped win the game!

  1. Hah, give me chemistry. I HATE math though so I'd want a tutor for that, too. LOL. ;-p

  2. I just finished reading Don Quixote this summer - did he enjoy reading it? Looooong book but very funny!

  3. I changed majors in college to avoid more chemistry. :) I can do elementary and middle school chemistry, but after that - I plan to outsource that (again). Sounds like a good week.
