Friday, May 13th, we had our third annual Jensen Family Homeschool graduation. Very proud of everyone’s hard work this past school year. Our program included recitations, book reports, and diploma ceremony.

Ezra: The Caterpillar by Christina Rossetti
Clara: My Shadow by Robert Lewis Stevenson
Anna: Oh Captain! My Captain! by Walt Whitman
Isaiah: Paul Revere’s Ride by
Becca: The Book of Jonah

We were very pleased with everyone’s recitations. Afterwards I handed out diplomas.

After our program we had a dessert buffet, each child worked on a dessert. We enjoyed the desserts as we watched an End of the Year Slide Show.

We also had two display tables out with the kids work from the school year, plus an art wall. And the girls got their yearly dresses made for the occasion!

The Friday before, May 6th, we had our Spring Piano Recital and Catechism Bee. It was a great night. The three oldest children performed. Becca and Anna played a duet. We ended the recital with the grand finale – a trio by Becca, Isaiah, and Anna. Becca and Isaiah memorized all 101 catechism; Anna – 78; Clara – 52; and Ezra about 10. I don’t have any pictures from the night.
