CJ earned Memory Master for Cycle 1!

We moved to Nairobi, Kenya in October 2016 where we continued homeschooling and using Classical Conversations. We knew there was a CC co-op that met weekly on Mondays and quickly became part of the group. I helped teach the afternoon Essentials portion, using the IEW Ancient Times themed book. CJ worked hard and mastered his Memory Master testing with the Director and Naomi joined in joyfully throughout weeks and weeks of memory work songs and repetition. CJ and Naomi also completed lapbooks corresponding to Cycle 1 made by "A Journey Through Learning". It has been an incredible year! We are gearing up for a very big change in our schooling as we have enrolled the kids at the International School of Kenya for the upcoming school year. We will take it one semester at a time, and continue reviewing the current CC cycle. CJ will be entering 4th grade and Naomi Kindergarten. It feels like homeschool is our "way of being" now that we're 5 years into it. Although we won't be full time homeschoolers starting in August, I hope to continue cultivating an environment where we enjoy learning, creating and playing together as a family.
