First Week: Review

--> Wrong choice in one of our English books. It's my fault (I read the Cambridge Secondary 2015 book list inaccurately). I should choose "English as Second Language" instead of "First Language". And I think we'd rather start in the lowest level and finish it fast, than start in the highest level but slow.























So we change one of our English book, from this one











                                           to this one












--> Surprisingly Donna likes Math now (as well as History, Science, Geography and English Writing). During her Primary grades she often felt so stressful to this subject. From my opinion, she did well in her Primary grades Math. Only, most of her classmates took extra math course after school that made them used to count faster. And this reality intimidated her for she often finished  her Math tasks slower. I'd explained to her that that fact didn't show their real abilities. Sometimes it worked and most did not. Now I feel so relief :D  So does her Father :D
He said, She looks so happy now!


We have almost the same schedule everyday, a loose schedule. Change and mix whatever we think suitable with the situation and subjects. The time she takes for each subject is all up to her. Many times I should remind her to stop (bed time or meal time).
Often she learns with some favourite musics as background sound.
Between this and that, she likes to have some fun chit chat via WA with another homeschooler girl ^^

Next week she'll start her flute class and yoga. German language starts two more weeks.
