Today we are supposed to be taking the day off from homeschool. I had a long midwife appointment most of the morning with bloodwork, gestational diabetes testing, and a regular checkup. So why is it that my oldest woke up and asked to do homeschool this morning? This is the child who would rather wait until noon before we begin any work because it takes her a while to wake up.
Needless to say, I let her do homeschool! She wrote for 15 minutes in her journal first, then decided she wanted to try the test for our next chapter in math. Yeah, the one we haven’t even done the lessons for yet. I figured she could always erase her answers and take the test next week after we do the lessons on reading different dials, gauges, and thermometers, so why not let her try it? She got everything right. That is one less week of MUS Beta for us. The last chapter is on answering questions from data on a graph, which I am pretty sure she knows how to do already. Then she’ll have the end of unit test over the last 1/4 of the book and the end of book test over the entire book.
She was also asking to do Expedition Earth and learn more about India, so we’re going to do that this afternoon. So much for taking a day off!

Just like a kid. When you plan a day off they want to do school. When you plan school they drag themselves to the table at 10:00am when their sibling is just about done! Oh well. That's the way the cookie crumbles... ooooh... I want a cookie.
Thanks for sharing your day.
I love those kinds of days. Chalk it up as a day to have free later ... when NOBODY feels like doing school.
Love her initiative! So how'd the appointment go? All okay?
We just finished up MUS Beta as well! My guy is chomping at the bit to start Gamma. He is bound and determined to catch up with his sister. His sister is *not* as excited as he is! LOL
