What a great start to a new year!

Posted in Reflections of a Homeschool Mom

We are now 2 weeks into our 8th year of homeschooling! WOW! I can hardly believe it has been that long since we started this wonderful life adventure.
Our curriculum line up this year is;
Math:
Epsilon by Math U See
Level B and C of Rightstart Mathematics

Typing Instructor for kids:
They are LOVING this and learning much

Brainbuilder:
Not loving as much but definately is helping with the ADHD, ADD, and short term memory issues.

Tapestry of Grace:
History Core readings
Literature
Literature Student Activity Pages
Hands on/Arts/Crafts
Church History (this has been esspecially interesting to me and my boys)
Geography
Writing
Language Arts

My oldest, boy of 12, has done nothing but tell me how much he is enjoying his History and Literature readings...imagine that...a boy enjoying history and literature...reading no less. It has been a wonderful first two weeks. As Tapestry lends itself to co-oping so well we are co-oping with another family this year. Next week we hit the Byzantine Empire and the Rise of Islam and then we get to hit our ancestors, the Vikings (the kids can hardly wait!). The best part is, we are all studying the same thing together at our own levels. I hope that next year I can join in the fun by doing the Retoric level myself!
I hope all of your weeks have had a wonderful start!
Thank you Lord for this wonderful opportunity to homeschool freely!
