Day Two - TLT 5h 20m


  • We started Bible at 8:10, reading about Joseph's death and the way the Egyptian's Pharaoh enslaved the Israelites to keep them from overthrowing the Egyptians. We read about Moses's birth and rescuing, as well as how he grew to love God, hold on to His promises and stand loyal to God and his own people.
  • You started a Mr D Math Demo at 8:35. We were testing it out to see if you like it more than Bob Jones Algebra. You did not. We will stick with Bob Jones.
  • You did Cultural Geography from 9:00-9:40. It was still Bible heavy. I like that, but I don't suspect it will continue all year. I'm sorry you haven't really had that in enough of your classes the past couple of years for it to seem normal, good, or right to be learning. I hope this program helps you see how valuable it can be, as well as how to discern between man made doctrine and God's Truth. You would be learning the cultural and geographical concepts through one form of example or another. Why not God? Or more so, it is best that it is God.
  • You did Writing and Grammar from 9:45 to 10:40. It was lots of review about sentence punctuation. You got to do some workbook exercises and an online Quiz. The quiz made us aware of a review you needed on the predicate portion of sentence structure. We reviewed and reset the quiz. You retook it and did well. 
  • You did fun, fast Spanish from 10:45 to 11:10. I love that your Spanish pronunciation and dialect is so on point. That was important to me when you started learning Spanish, since Kindergarden. Very glad to hear that you don't speak spanglish, what-so-ever.
  • You did Physical Science from 11:15 to 12:15 - watched the video. Decided you'd be best to skip videos and write down and study definitions and important info from text for tests on these days. Took test. Did well.
  • You did your intro to Health from 12:30 to 1:10. You shared some interesting observations about the material. I think it is healthy and solid material so far, but will be reading some of the first Unit before or after you do so I can keep an eye on it. 
  • You finished your day out with a nice Art Lesson sometime in the night. (20mins)

Funny of the day:
"Remember that one time when I was at piano practice and we saw the (C Family) and the boy was like, 'I can play Yankee Doodle really fast.' and he was like, 'lets have a competition of who can play it the fastest.' AND I SHUT HIS ASS DOWN!"

Yay! Today we used the program more proficiently in way of our goals. As a result it took us much less time to complete. You kept your spirits up, and I even felt you getting happier and more hopeful as the day went on. I'm happy with the big difference we were able to make in just one day. Congrats!

Lora's favorite part of the day: Experiencing lessons sped up with fast talking teachers.

Forgot to ask Zeek his favorite part of the day.
