We have finished all of the stories in our Journeys series and the students have brought their textbooks home to be returned to their school districts at the end of June.  We will continue to do Grammar and Spelling lessons in the workbook.  For the remainder of the year we will be reading the novel, The Thing About Georgie .  Periodically the students will need to bring their copies of the book home to answer questions for homework.  Please do your best to keep the books in good order while they are at home and be sure to return them to school each day as it is important to keep the set together for future classes.
