“I love homeschooling”

Yes I do and now so does Big H!

I was disappointed at how much he regressed compared to when he was exclusively home schooled. With no summer school offered for his grade or at his school, we are having our own summer school, and he is loving it especially math.

While finances are tight, I plan on making his curriculum more varied, our schedule so far;

Monday - Math, Writing, Reading, Park
Tuesday - Library time, Reading, History
Wednesday - Scrapbooking, Reading, Social Studies
Thursday - Science, Writing, Reading, Park
Friday - Gardening (depending on weather), Reading, Math
Saturday - Reading, Park
Sunday - Baking/Cooking, Reading

With both boy’s hair almost shoulder length and battling this terrible heat, I am researching on whom I could donate their hair to with emphasis on cancer survivors, if you have any suggestions, send them my way :).

Sounds like a good schedule. I should have my kids do some work over the summer. Their last day of school is next Thursday. My daughter’s teacher wants her to at least practice her writing over the summer. I find it very hard to get them to do school work over the summer!
Thanks for stopping by my blog & your nice comment :)

Thanks for stopping by Sue.
I try not to be too strict with following the schedule, it is more to keep them occupied while I study, there are a lot of great sites out there that your daughter may find interesting that doesn’t look like school work ;).

Have a wonderful weekend!

I home schooled my teen this year. His grades where not high enough for junior high. It was wonderful, It tightened familly links made respect and understanding a foundation for our familly. For socializing reasons he will be going back to school next september but nothing can beet learning in a loving and fun enviroments and no one knows what your kids need like you do.
