On April 15th, we woke up to about 8 inches of snow!

Of course we were up in the 60s today, so it melted quickly.

Benjamin finished up his 2nd year of robotics. This time they downloaded a program that actually ran the robot ~ I still can't wrap my head around all this technology.

The robots were dueling...not sure how they knew who won.

I recently gave Benjamin a short test to try to determine his 'intellectual style'. There were 7 different styles and his highest was music, followed by linguistics, spatial visual and then bodily kinesthetic. The music really surprised me. However, he has been listening to internet radio while he does his work and somehow focuses. (I constantly find myself wanting to turn it down). I need to do some reading over the summer about how to incorporate the other 3 into his studies. I have already started thinking about curriculum for the fall. I have figured out that the 2 areas I really need to focus on are math and writing/language arts (sentence structure, writing process). The music, history and science are things that he loves and easily soaks up when exposed to them.

Another quiet week on the horizon. AWANA is now finished, as is robotics, so no extra-curriculars right now. Hopefully just lots of playing outside!
