Lesson Outline
Language arts: Today we began with our daily language review. This task addressed capitalization, end marks, contractions, proper nouns, and commas. Next, we took the spelling pre-test for our new novel study, Afternoon on the Amazon. This list includes words such as screech, freeze, predator, and piranhas. We reviewed his errors and he wrote the correct spelling. This is book 6 of The Magic Tree House series by Mary Pope Osborne. We read the first two chapters of the book where the kids are off to find something to help Morgan le Fay. We looked at pictures of where rain forests are located on world maps. We saw that they fall near the equator and discussed the climate of those areas. Religion: Today we read about the three days from Thursday to Sunday before Easter. We learned that Lent gets us ready for these Three Days, which are called the Easter Triduum. We celebrate Jesus’ dying and rising to new life during this time. Jonathan drew a picture of a way he could celebrate this event by praying together with his family.

Lesson Comments
Due to scheduling mix-ups, my 2 hours language arts / religion session was cut to 60 minutes at mom’s request. I was scheduled with him from 11 – 12 and 12:30 – 1:30, but I had other students scheduled at the same time. This morning, his mom had agreed to put me in for 2:30 – 4:30 to accommodate for the scheduling errors. When I logged on at 2:30 with him, his mom said, “Jonathan just had public speaking for an hour, which was unexpected, so can he just have you for an hour?” I agreed. She requested an updated schedule. I told her I believed the scheduling was being addressed. I informed Nicole of this information via text.
