Easter

As all the local children have finished school due to the Easter break I know the children will want to be playing outside more with their friends. With this in mind I just have a short amount of work set up in the mornings. It's mainly to keep it fresh in their minds and keep some sort of a routine in place. 

Hopefully, this will stop the transitional issues I normally struggle with once the holidays are over. 

Owen did some RM maths:

Sam worked on Conquer Maths.

Not long after, there was a knock at the door and they both flew out to play.

Owen was in his usual Tuesday stressy mood. When I finally got him to eat, this improved and he worked on his maths.

Sam revisited Primes and Composite numbers.

Owen finished his maths and then they chilled out for a while before their friends called round.

The rest of the day involved playing at the park and flitting in for lunch. They finally came home at 3pm, which was a good call, as they needed to decompress before ju jitsu class later.

I filled their bellies with chips, peas, bread and butter and they went off happy and a little sunburnt. They had a great time at class this week and came home tired but still chirpy.

The following day they were both up early and we cracked on with some English comprehension and writing. Sam went out to play, whilst Owen decided to play online with one of his home ed friends.

In the afternoon the boys played outside and had a friend round.

The next day Blokey finished work. We needed to take Piggle for a vets appointment and sadly she is worsening. We all felt so sad but hopefully have a bit longer with her yet. Afterwards we visited the garden centre and bought lots of shrubs for home.

The children played out and then we had a takeaway and watched some manga cartoons.

We were recommended to mysteryscience.com by a friend and decided to give the trial a go. We all enjoyed it.

Sam continued to work on Conquer maths and Owen is finishing RM.

We are still doing a slow week as the boys are playing outside most of the day whilst the school children are around.

We do some writing or maths/science most mornings, then they have the rest of the time to play. It's all pretty easy going Home ed wise but Owen is struggling with his anxiety and is having some black moods.

I was a bit hit and miss with recording things on the blog.. we had a BBQ, read a lot, watched films and the children played at the park most days..pretty chilled once Owen calmed himself down a bit lol.
