Snow today. 164 and Green River area was closed earlier this morning for an accident. It's about three inches over here and it's still coming down. It is beautiful. I'm hoping all the kids will keep enjoying the snow. Adults are often bored easily by repeats of natural phenomena, and that's not the best example for kids. Enchantment at what is NOW is a much better example.
We will be studying the map of Africa this week when we get back to school.
We will be starting to work on the idea of a President of the Garden School this week. Campaigns may begin as quickly as the children understand what that means.
I am still trying to get a field trip to St. Meinrad on Wednesday for a tour and ashes and Noon Prayer. Not sure it will happen. St. Meinrad is about fifty miles East of Evansville. It's one of seven Benedictine Archabbeys in the world. It's quite beautiful and there is lots to see. We will be there only in the morning and will return to school at 1:00 -1:15 if we go. I will try to either get a room to eat a picnic or try to get the kitchen up there to provide a lunch. Depends on the cost.
The race to read continues, and so does the spelling that goes with that. It is wonderful to know that this years children are so advanced. Many of them are able to spell consonant blends! Yeah!
A hearty cheer to all of you reading this.
