  • Our NEW school shirt!

    As you all know, one of things on my to do list this year for school was create a school shirt! Well we attempted that and even though we had fun as a family it wasn’t quite the “look” I was going for as an “official” school shirt. So I reached out to my dear…

  • We have a new student! (homeschool)

    After praying and meditating for several months, we have decided to pull my son out of public school and homeschool him. I was initially terrified at the idea of homeschooling my high school son, but then one day I received a sense of peace. I have graduated from high school and college, so what’s to…

  • Our week of MFW (homeschooling)

    I am a little behind on my postings,  but that’s okay! We focused on MFW the week before last, and due to a short week last week we did unleash the code and practiced our cursive. This week will be back in Abeka! So here are our photos from our week of MFW. MFW is…

  • Tutorial

    So today was Jay first day at her new “school” She started a tutorial for homeschool kids at a place called shepherd’s heart. I figured this would give her a chance to have the feel of a classroom setting, meet some great people, and get a breather from mommy! This would also give me a…

  • My fathers world

    we have finally purchased my fathers world, thanks to a friend of ours! We eagerly jumped right into this week and started learning about the sun! This is Jay doing her blindfold portion. We talked about how the Sun helps us to see. She was so excited and did this exercise 3 times! Here she…

  • Tot School

    So we are our 2nd day into tot school! Don’t know yet? LOL I will say it’s great having a schedule to follow with them. Yesterday we played with play doh. I know that doesn’t seem like anything new. Well it was, because we played with a purpose. I gave them scissor to cut up…

  • Back to it!

    The end of our Fall break has come to an end and it is time to hit the books again! It’s a little bitter sweet as I have been enjoying just spending time with Jay and the babies and not worrying about “learning” like I have to do with school. During school I am a…

  • Tot school

    So I was visiting a blog lovesschool that I visit often, I am more like a spy as I read but do not comment. She inspires me. Anyway I was reading her tot spot blog for the week, and I thought this is what I need. I need to start tot school in my house…

  • Quarterly Assessment!

    Today was the end of our first quarter. I broke our calendar up into 4 quarters 45 days each for a total of 180 days! At first I thought I would not do assessments, but then I decided how else will I know how I am doing as a teacher! So I don’t give her…

  • Keep the spark alive

    This is a troubling area for me. I am trying to so hard to keep Jays love for learning going without becoming an unschooler. Not that there is anything wrong with unschooling infact, when I homeschooled my son this was my approach because he had been so programmed. All she really wants to do is…
