I'm a bad blogger!
|
It has been over a month since my last
blog! I have been so busy studying and keeping up with
homeschooling. The kids are doing great and I am finishing my
transcription course. I cannot wait to be done and be working. I
know I will enjoy working from home. It snowed over the weekend here in East TN. We still have snow on the ground. The temp is supposed to be up to 47 degrees, so it will most likely melt today. The forecast for Thursday is a high of 60 degrees. Wow, snow one minute, spring the next. Gotta love Southern weather! Schooling is going well. We are using Easy Grammar Plus, and it has made life so much easier for us. I love language arts, but some of the curricula out there is just downright tedious, with way too much busy work. Easy Grammar is straight to the point and fun to each. The kids like it, because Grammar doesn't take all day and they know they are learning. We are still moving along in Rainbow Science. We do 2 lessons and an experiment per week. It is also easy and fun. Math, as usual, is always a struggle for us, mainly because I am not a math person. We have used every kind of curricula available for Math, just to come back to Saxon, which I wished we would have stuck with in the first place. I feel Saxon is easiest to teach and keeps the math concepts fresh in their minds with the constant review of concepts. Michael is in Alg 1/2 and Kari is in 7/6. Michael does his through the Coop and has a wonderful teacher. I am teaching Kari. I plan for both of them to do Math through the Coop next year. They also do History and Spanish through Coop, and some other extra curricular studies. This has worked great for us this year. I have some pics of the snow to show you. I think you will enjoy them. Happy Valentines Day! Beth |
