Lesson Comments
Cameron is taking the FCAT this week, so he didn't have any assignments to work on. However, he did finally finish the Lord of the Flies, so we were able to spend the hour having a very interesting discussion about it. He did a very good job of remembering the characters and details of the book, but missed the larger themes and message. We had a great discussion about the mob mentality and how it plays out in modern society. I think he got a lot out of reading it.

Rowan had fun! We worked on his map skills to navigate there. He told the attendant everything we needed. He independenly picked out his ball and bowled. He needed some redirection at the bowling alley to not wander around while I bowled, and to stop spinning the chairs. He only got frustrated a few times (he had asked for bumpers).
