CC End-of-the-School Year Presentations

Even though we are still doing "school"-type things around our house, our homeschool Classical Conversations group just wrapped up our last day with a pizza party and a little presentation of some of the things we learned. Andrew and Leah have truly loved going to CC this year, have learned a ton and made a lot of new friends. Sadly a lot of those friends live an hour away, where the homeschool group meets, and some are not coming back next year, but we may still have chances to get together with them over the summer and beyond. Andrew really did well for being the youngest in the class and is really starting to find his "niche" in schoolwork.

Here is a little song all the kids learned this year in order to help memorize some Latin. It is the words to John 1:1-6 in Latin. I cannot believe how well these little 4 and 5-year-olds retained this information, and Andrew can still sing the song (although I doubt he could tell you the meaning of any of the Latin words if you asked).

And Leah's class had fun learning this geometry song to memorize some of the formulas. I can't say I learned any of this stuff until high school! They are building a great foundation  for when they get older and remember these songs when it comes time to actually learn how to work with this information.

Here are their class pictures, actually taken a little while ago. Andrew's friends in his class were the only boys, Ravi & Wyatt. His teacher was Mrs. Young.

Leah's closest friend in her class is Fiona (to her left in the picture) and also Evelyn (to her right). Her teacher was Mrs. Larson.
