Each school day, the girls have to complete their memory work. It includes all subjects with things like history dates, grammar rules, scripture verses, word definitions, random important information, etc. There is a rotation so that they are reviewing things about once a month and practicing new things on a daily basis.
Currently, Claire has some definitions that she's working through. There are probably about 15. She has to read through them at least 5 times when she does her memory work.
In light of this info, here is our most recent conversation regarding memory work:
Claire: Mom, these definitions are taking forever to get through!
Me: There aren't that many. Just work through them. I'll go through them with you once or twice if it would help.
Claire: No...I can do them...they just take like 2 hours to go through!
Me: Two hours? I don't think so.
Claire: (sigh) Well, they take at least 5 minutes!!!
We don't exaggerate around here at all.
