This is the hope that I cling to. So many days we are made to doubt the decisions we make where our children are concerned, and so many nights I cry out to my God for guidance and patience. I love this little girl who is longer a little girl but an amazing
young woman struggling to make her own way in this would. I'm grateful everyday for the daily moments that I've been able to share with her along this journey. Through all
the daily struggles and triumphs we have been blessed to share them together, what a
gift.
This week in Biology we continued to learn to classify organisms. We completed our
first experiment using the microscope, first viewing thread. Then we collected cheek
cells and prepared slides to view. Our first experience with methylene blue stain(messy). Sarah really likes looking through the microscope. Yea, for excitement in a school subject.
Teaching textbooks for Pre Alg is coming along well. She is scoring 90's on her lessons. I'm satisfied with that.
Sarah has completed the Brain pop movies and quizzes for DNA, RNA, Mitosis,
heredity, and genetics. She continues to keep a food journal and jump on her trampoline in the afternoons.
She is progressing in Spanish. This week we studied different styles of South Carolina
houses. Reading about Robert Mills. She also watched videos of the shag and the
Charleston.
We read about Marco Polo and Prince Henry and mapped their travels. We have
continued to study Picasso, MRSA and not to forget grammar, spelling and lots
of literature. Sarah worked Wednesday morning at the wholesale. No animal auctions this week. Although she did help clean and disinfect all the chicken pens and coops.
