History – We’ll play hit back and forth with toy swords while reciting our memory work. Or so, I think. I’ll keep you posted if this works or turns into more war than recitation!
Latin – Use the Latin pronunciation helps to practice the endings.
English – Recite the pronoun order. If my guys need extra help remembering, I plan to sketch a little family with a “person” for each type of pronoun.
Math – Trace our hands to practice skip counting by 5s. Complete fill-in chart for skip counting the 6s (skip counting worksheets).
Science – Use food chain cards to visualize parts of the food chain. Watch The Magic School Bus Gets Eaten.
Geography – Review the locations on our maps and practice continent blobbing.
Fine Arts – My littles love to paint, so I think we’ll take this opportunity to create abstract art with an assortment of random tools — paintbrush, toothbrush, whisk, q-tips, and anything else within reach!
Doing things we like with objects we already have on hand keeps review simple and interesting. Look around! I’m sure there are great things right around that you could use for review. If you find a favorite, please share!

Just curious…what all do you do in addition to this? A math curriculum? Writing or extra grammar? I’m trying to keep it simple and not do too much but also want to make sure I’m doing what I should. I’ve got a K and 2nd in CC.
