Wow. An Entry That's Actually Homeschool Related...
We had our assessment a few days ago. Everything went very well. My eldest just completed his second grade year and is reading at an eighth grade level. This year I'll be schooling a third grader, first grader, and a pre-schooler who's dying to read. I still have to send in my notification letter. I'll be working on that this week. Since I've just moved to this area, I have to find out who the superintendant is... I do not enjoy change.
I'm looking forward to school this year and dreading it at the same time. The lower grades are easier as you can't fall behind. Our school this year is going to require more time, more planning, more consistancy, more of me.
Also...
I'm looking forward to fall. My property is heavily wooded. Once the lower temperatures kill the mosquitos, I'm looking forward to lots of beautiful walks. I'm also looking forward to things slowing down. It's been such a busy summer. I can't wait for a lovely afternoon of raking leaves, the smell of burning wood, the taste of apple cider and glazed doughnuts, the feel of a thick sweater, and the smell of ice on the wind that tells me snow is en route.
My favorite time of the year: The start of school and autumn.
Life is good.
