First Mini-Day of School

We are starting off slowly with school. Today's first day was only reading and spelling. We read the first two chapters of Once Upon The End, the third book in a series I've been reading to the kids. I also gave Allie and Caden placement tests for spelling. Allie tested at the end of sixth grade. Caden tested at third grade. He's an awesome reader, but we'll have to do some extra work on spelling.

This afternoon, we went to "the beach" at Chris Greene Lake. I use the term beach loosely. Hopefully our next assignment will put us closer to a coast because a lake and dirt shore just don't compare to our beloved Pensacola Beach.
