....so far has been lazy and uneventful since the iron tablet incident. I have switched to a liquid iron which isn't very pleasant tasting but I don't get any nausea, so it's a winner in my book. I hate throwing up!
The boys have been plugging away at their spelling and their About Me project. I decided that once they have finished their first draft, they can finish it off on the computer. That way they are doing they Technology part of the curriculum thing.
Did I mention I really don't like the Curriculum framework? The fact that most teachers don't use the thing, should be a good indicator. Homeschoolers are held to a much higher standard than the school system, which bugs me but I am not sure what can be done to get more freedom for homeschoolers on Australia. I would be interested if there is a committee or something.
Once we have finished the About Me thing the boys will be going on to swans. We have heaps of black swans around here, so it seemed a natural thing to study. There is a swan family not far up the road. They have six little cygnets, which are so cute.They look like balls of fluff floating on the surface of the water. So we will doing that soon hopefully.
Well I had better be off. Next time I should have a bigger and better entry!!
