Mid-Year Update: Literature

We finished The Hobbit a couple of nights ago. I decided to move The Wind in the Willows from school read to bedtime read because I was feeling behind; I was too ambitious with the number of readings I scheduled. She likes the book, and bedtime reads should be pleasurable. The book I was planning to have Gemma read - as a literature book - during the last trimester of 2nd grade is Robin Hood, but now I think we’ll do it as a bedtime read, too. Now, instead of wondering how on earth we’re going to get through it, I can just look forward to enjoying the story with her.

*Gemma Quote: Last night, Gemma said, “I wish we had a hearth so I could warm my feet.”
