Friday March 27

Connor was feeling a little better today, so we headed out to Mass at 7:30am. It was further away today, in Leicester. We got home from Mass at 8:45am, and had just enough time to complete 5 Math pages, and then we headed off to Chess. I was asked to take charge of this session of the home-schooler's Chess Club, and I was gratified to see 18 (instead of the usual 10)participants. This means that the price goes down to $30 (from $55) per student. After Chess, we grabbed a quick lunch and headed to the Rochester Museum and Science Center. We hit more areas today than we did last week, and then we stayed for the Dinosaurs Alive show at the Planetarium. We didn't get home until after 6pm! What a long day of learning. After dinner (we ate pancakes with Connor's hickory bark syrup!) Connor responded to his new Pen Pal, a boy in China!! He is now upstairs reading his newest historical fiction, Summer of My German Soldier.
