Week 21.5 February 25-March 3, 2013
The following item were covered in the previous week -- week 21 -- but instead of jumping to week 22 due to Mommy's Breast Cancer, we did a half week where we reviewed week 20 Charlotte Mason Items but then continued with Math and Language Arts, Japanese, Music, Spanish, and Clinical items. So it made sense calling this 'week 21.5'. Following this list are pictures that remind us of the week.
