Okay, so today was my first official day of high school! Yesterday, we got all our workbooks, textbooks, and notebooks together. And, after running errands, which included a dentist visit for my mom, a stop at Barnes & Noble for some books, and a trip to Costco (where we talked with Mrs. Wheeler), we started our lessons.
So what kinds of things am I doing? Wordly Wise (which is like the thing in 6th grade we did in the morning - learning words & their definitions, with fill-in-the-blank type activities), geometry, economics, American literature (reading books by Hemingway, Crane, and Steinbeck), short stories, poetry (Dickinson, Poe, etc.), Spanish, learning about checking accounts, and I don't really know yet what for science.
Today was pretty easy, except for geometry, which took a little while to figure out (and the fact that I couldn't remember how to do roots on the calculator for the warm-up questions). But anyway, a good day overall...
Oh, and my outfit:
- black t-shirt with neon (pink, yellow, orange, & purple) peace signs
- denim shorts
- black sandals
Gatlinburg trip post coming soon!
