It was a fun and busy break that we had from the books but it is timeto get back. I am ready for our day to have a schedule again. We were only off for about 5-6 weeks but that is long for us. We should have started back two weeks ago. I hope this is not a sign of what is to come for the whole year, lol...
I have one daughter starting 6th gr and one duaghter starting 10th. We aren't changing up too much as far as what we are using this year but there will be a few different things. I hope to spend more time with my younger one learning more "off the beaten path" so to speak.
I have listed our text books and/or programs on my side bar. Let me know if you would like to know more about anything that I am using. This will be our 12 yr to homeschool and I only have 6 more to go !! I can't beleive that we have been at it for this long. But I must admit, I do "day-dream" about what I will be doing with my days once I am finished. I love this time with my girls but to be honest, I have a project list a mile long that I am dying to get to, lol....
Well, I don't have much longer before I have to get the girls started for the day. I hope everyone has a great day out there.
Well ladies, I have set my sights on getting back to normal around here and that means it is time to get back to school !!
I have been working on our planners and getting lesson plans in order and waiting for the last few books to come in. We are changing a few things up for some things but not everything. Sometimes you just need a change to keep things interesting, you know?
I am hoping to post more this school year and keeping everyone up to date on what is going on. Not just with my family but also with TOS !! There is some exciting things in the future for everyone and TOS is the one to bring it to you.
So while you are here, take a look at my side bar for the girls subjects/text books and let me know if you want to know about any of them. I will also be posting as we go with some of the new ones we are using.
Back to the schedule making and working for the magazine (TOS). Stay tuned for more news items as they come available, lol.....
