Saxon Math: In the work packet, you will find these
lessons stapled together. You will also see a packet for this week labeled
“adults only”. These are answer keys or directions I feel may help you. The
children are accustomed to my grading our facts or tests immediately and are
always eager to know what they made. I’ve sent you grading scales in case you
want to do this. You certainly don’t have to.
This week, if you would
like to skip the homework on the back of our math sheets, you may. Your
decision.

Liberty’s Legacy: Unit 9,
Veteran Tribute. Watch videos, complete workbook pages 19-20 and the vocabulary
portion on p. 27. Don’t tear out these pages. This workbook will be returned to
me May 4 (as of today’s writing. I’m sure it’s subject to change).
Handwriting: We are basically
through with handwriting. As I’ve said before, I don’t have a copy of the handwriting
workbook. In the months before school begins next year, try to practice cursive
every once in a while. You can ask your child to write all the capital letters.
Then another day, ask them to write all the lowercase letters, connecting each
one to the next one. (They often forget to dot i’s and j’s and cross t’s.)
