June 2020 Reading Wrap Up

GOODBYE JUNE

Another month has flown by.
Another month of reading very little of my own books, but still sticking to picture books and our daily chapter book readings.
We've focused a lot on self-led education this month in anticipation of the upcoming school year (in which we don't go to school because of Covid19). We're attempting to get into a groove so we're working out the kinks and it does seem to take up a lot of time trying to figure it all out and make it a habit.

Otherwise, it's been an okay month. Not the greatest, but we fit in a few hikes, continued to observe tadpoles, and gardened a lot.

As for my reading wrap up:
