The morning started out with cranky kids and a cranky mom — I woke up late and we didn’t get to attend Mass, then had several distractions early on. We started out Latin with not the best of attitudes/behaviors. Migi was up to his old tricks, yelling out the conjugations as if he was declaring war on someone, complete with facial expressions and fists raised, etc. By a strange coincidence, we all recognized it as rap-pish, and I had the (brilliant! :D) idea to have them say their conjugations rap-style. So they did. It was so much fun. They even put on hats and bandanas to make themselves look more like rappers. Muaha. That made for fifteen minutes more of classical lessons that were more delightful than the first fifteen (dictation and copywork). Hah! We were telling Migi, if he were in regular school, he’d probably have gotten detention, doing what he did:D. We love homeschooling!
