Learning How to Juggle 2!
Posted in weekly class log
It's taken us 4 weeks, but we have a clean, organized school room and have finished 2 weeks worth of ECC for 3rd grade and 3 weeks worth of MFW K, and have survived a family-wide round of the tummy flu! I think I'm getting the hang of how to ballance it all finally and give both kids their fair share of one-on-one teaching time. The only thing I haven't consitently gotten added in yet is our Spelling Power program because I'm still reading and trying to figure out how it all works! I think this coming week we should be able to accomplish a full week's program for each of the kids.
Big J is loving learning cursive handwriting and R is doing really well in starting to print her letters as well. A few weeks ago she brought me a card addressed to "NUM". We talked it out, sounded out the letters and talked about what sounds she was trying to make. A few minutes later, without any assistance, she came back and poundly presented me a card addressed to "MOM"! (I need a happy tears picture here!)

Jennifer,
How nice to see you on Homeschool Blogger. I first "met" you (via internet) in 1997 when I was going through infertility issues and found Hannah's Prayer. When HP still had Area Contacts, I was one here in El Paso, TX. I saw "infertilitymom" on Kate and Noah's website, was curious, and wow! It's you!
Blessings,

What a great place to be in as you find balance between the two programs! Congrats on a big accomplishment...one I'm still seeking for my own kids. Sorry to hear about the tummy flu, not fun at all, and hoping you guy stay well this fall!

I hope you don't mind, but I put a link up to your blog from mine. I found you through the MFW blogroll. I just wanted a place where I could remember to check in on those using ECC. Let me know if this is ok.
By the way, I'm in NV too!
(close by you...email me & we can meet up!!)
