5 Wonderful Things About Each of Our Children

10:28 PM, Saturday, July 15, 2006 .. Posted in Living Learning Moments, A Dixon Home Education .. 5 comments .. Link
     For awhile I used the term 'Teachable Moments', because that is how I believe home education works best. Then, I found a site, where the lady has already coined that term, so I tried to come up with another heartfelt term, but I really liked the connotation of Teachable Moments. All I could come up with so far is Living Learning Moments.
     Anyway, seeing as our homeschool is full with 7 dear children who will be learning through Living Moments.... I am going to share a little about them occasionally.  I like to visit blogs and see what interests other homeschool children have also, so I hope you consider this 'homeschool info'.
    In re-focusing this blog to 'our homeschool' - which we named Dixon Christian Academy (DCA, for short) about 10yrs. ago - I will also be linking to or re-posting some of the dd's entries.

Thanks for posting this. I really enjoyed it!

I also call MY Hannah, HANNIE... I thought I was the only one who did that. Plus, half the time it sounds like I am calling her Anna... so she answers when other people misunderstand and call her Anna!
