Two Weeks Down -- 34 to Go
Just finished up our second four-day week of school (Labor Day). I am happy to report that it was an excellent week, with many solid hours of instruction and work put in by all of us.
Some highlights of the week:
A science experiment that worked!(photo of the kids' feet demonstrating how our skin lets off water vapor)
Another wonderful poem written by Eli.
More good readings from "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff - for Teens"
Happy, engaged students.
A positive outcome to the tragedy of running out of printer ink right at the wrong time.
Two whole weeks of homeschooling using the same methods and not thinking I need to make any major changes.
Adjustments next week include having Anna-Jessie tackle math earlier in the day since she tends to do everything else first. Also, I want to help her get more organized with her reading. And, lastly, continue to adjust how I give out assignments to students who are in two completely different grades, but doing mostly the same curriculum.
