Finished Year 1 Writing with Ease

We started this year slowly, and really just did the bare minimum of Math and Vietnamese. She reads a lot on her own anyway, tons of books from the library. So I had this writing curriculum(Writing with Ease) that we didn't resume working on until Feb( we had started it last year). We did it double time and 5 days and have just now finished level 1. I expect that we'll continue on the double pace until we finish Level 3. It's not really so bad, I think it really is only about 15 minutes for both copywork and narration, not including the actual reading time. I'm using the instructor guide and not the workbooks. I like the flexibility of the instructor guide a lot. Plus it appeals to my frugal nature since 4 years worth of material are covered in the one book.

Home School Day

This a a typical day. The blue spiral is Righstart Math B workbook. She has her weaving project next to her, my camera case and a calendar are also on top. Other subjects are in the boxes underneath.

And here we're doing writing. This story was about Arachne from The McElderry Book of Greek Myths.
I bought a pack of paper that is half blank and half lined, so she can draw pictures and write about it. We also use it to make books, just fold the paper in half and staple. Sometimes we use a piece of construction paper for a cover. The paper is 9x12 and the construction paper is the same size.
