I thought it would be fun to pick five phrases Charlie and I could learn in different languages and when we master, then we could share them with our friends and family. I didn’t know where to start. Although God saw my struggles with this and he had an email from Jennifer’s Language page arrive in my email this morning. I have the Homeschool Resource I can use.
The next step if picking out which five words Charlie and I want to learn. BeSo is watching to see what we chose. If we stay at five words or add more to our Lesson Plan as we could combine a new word each week and turn this into a learn long lesson in writing, reading, and spelling and it would be different from what we had been using in the past.
