CC Memory Check Off List

Since Classical Conversations is all about memorizing information, Caity made the kids check off pages for their memory work. They are not the greatest pics, but I think you get the idea.  

Starting School 2014 ( Classical Conversations)

Image
 We have started Classical Conversations this year. Caity is in the Challenge B program and Colton and Cheyanne will be doing Foundations with me. I do not know exactly what I am doing, but I have researched a ton and I'm going to give it a try. Here is our Week 1 Memory Board for Cycle 3: Here is Caity's Latin Declension board: Chey relaxing with Curley. We are also are starting state notebooks since the kids have to learn the states and their capitals. If you need information on individual states you can go here and there are links to all 50 states to get the information guides.
