Week 7: October 10 - 14

We took off a week in school last week as we prepared for our move in town. I may be too optimistic in thinking that we'll be able to continue studies as normal this upcoming week, but we'll see. I have planned for a good amount of wiggle room in our schedule for the year knowing that we'd likely see another move in the near future. So long as Elinor learns the letter "R" this week and Mara reads through her materials this week I'll consider this week as a success.
