Aria's School Life

In Science this month we have been learning about Inventions and Inventors. I looked up who made Kleenex (Kimberly-Clark). We found out that trampolines and calculators and a bunch of other stuff was made by kids. 

In music we've been finishing up orchestras. Today we learned about the string family of instruments. 

In Social Studies we are learning about South America. The countries that we are learning about are Brazil, Argentina and tomorrow we are learning about Chile. We learned that Brazilians speak Portuguese but all the other countries in South America speak Spanish. 

In math I started doing grade 5 work because grade 3 was too easy. Recently we've been learning about square roots and exponents and BEDMAS (Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction - the order of operations.)

For example: 
(we have to do the brackets first, then the multiplication, then the rest)

3+2x4-(2+2)=
3+2x4-(4)=
3+8-4=
11-4=
7

In health we have been learning about healthy eating. One day while we were learning about healthy eating, we ate something unhealthy. It was McDonalds! Even Morgan came home from school for lunch. That doesn't make much sense... does it?!

  2. Lol I love the irony of eating unhealthy food while learning about healthy. Do you eat Halloween candy every day too? It's hard not to. Today I made my kids each eat an avacado but it was in a smoothie.

  3. Your notes are good but they leave me asking for more information... learning about eating healthy and then stating that you had McDonald's like that is a bad thing... making healthy choices can be done in any way... and Morgan is a part of the family and should also be part of the journey you and your family is on

    Keep up the good work... I don't know how to change the comment space .. will need to learn that ... Heather

    1. We didn't mean to eat McDonalds while learning healthy eating. It was a surprise lunch and dad didn't know what the topic we were learning was about. Morgan chooses not to be homeschooled as she works better that way. But we include her in as many things as we can.

Liam's Introduction

Greetings, I am Liam Bailey. I am an 11 year old being homeschooled by my mother, Kathleen Bailey, currently. For Math, I have done things like Prime Factorization, Exponents, and at the time of writing, Line Graphs. This is all really difficult for me,  as due to some things I have, mostly some problems with memory and focusing. That is some of the reason for why I am homeschooled. For Science, we are doing DNA/Genes. Before it was some dinosaurs for September, and for October, now it is DNA. This is both half complicated and half not, as I know most of this already. For French, we did some Thanksgiving and Gratitude work in French. Usually quick. For some days, I also do Duolingo. For Literacy, I had to do this post today and for every other day, a page in a certain book and a reading comprehension  like work. That is all for this blog.

All About Me (Alastrin) and my Past School Week

     Hey, this is Alastrin. I am currently in grade 10. I have a total of 11 classes that I am going to do this year. The first semester consists of Astronomy, English, Mythology, Spanish, Mathematics (Algebra 2), and American Sign Language (ASL). Next semester I'll be taking Latin, History, Visual Arts, French, and Chemistry.      All throughout my Elementary years I had always been a bit bored since the work was far too easy for me. I of course liked that I understood the subjects and wasn't falling behind. I just didn't feel challenged too often. Since I have started high school, I've come to quickly realize just how different it was from my previous years. I had been doing in-person school for the first semester of grade 9. Overall I had a good experience. The teachers and students were all nice and everything. The only problem I had was the workload. Each class was 2 and a half hours long, and we did roughly 4 lessons a day. As well as tests and projec...
