S2W7

To Do: 

Daily Mass + Morning or Evening Prayer (prayed after Mass at church)

Morning Prayer at home when Mass is in the evening or at noon (children read psalms aloud, alternating verses -- actually, the three of us take turns)

Combined School Odd-Week Reading (substituting F.J. Gould's The Children's Plutarch:  Tales of the Greeks for Eva March Tappan's The Story of the Greek People.  Tappan's chapters are a bit long and expository for my listeners right now;  Gould is a bit livelier, being focused on characters in Greek history. Today we read and narrated about Aristides)

Note:  for Friday's science reading, substitute Archimedes and the Door of Science weekly until finished. 

Lenten hymn for the week:  "Jesu, Dulcis Memoria"

Lenten reading:  Wednesday and Friday, My Path to Heaven (Bliss & Houselander)

One lesson daily in Draw Write Now (child's choice), cursive workbook, math skills workbook

Science:  one hands-on experiment in Magic Schoolbus Human Body kit

Independent reading:
R:  The Adventures of Danny Meadow Mouse;  The Mitchells:  Five for Victory
B: Rolf and the Viking Bow



Bedtime reading:  Through the Looking Glass

Compline

NB:  Read-aloud queue for the rest of the year: 
The Luck of Troy (Roger Lancelyn Green)
Nacar the White Deer (Elizabeth Borton de Trevino)
