Our Homeschool Room / Space

Posted in Homeschool

NBTSbloghop


Many of you know my blog has been sleeping for months! I figured now would be a good time to come out of hibernation with Darcy's fun Blog Hop and The Homeschool Open House!

This week Darcy has asked everyone to share their school areas in her "Not Back to School Blog Hop"

We do our lessons here, there and everywhere! Inside, outside, kitchen, living room, playroom, playhouse, in the car or even at the Dojo!
 

 

Our playroom / schoolroom

 

Troy teaches music lessons in the living room.


 

Work Station - Holds our "Workbox System" adapted for my 3 little ninjas, ages 4. 6 & 8. We use folders instead of drawers. 

 

The boys are eating lunch in the clubhouse; they can be found doing lessons in here too.

 

On the deck outside.

In bed!

 

This is where most lessons are done...our kitchen!

 

Mr. Dominick... teaching letter sounds.


Hope you all enjoyed our little tour of our homeschool spaces.

 

Don't forget about our Homeschool Open House on THL ... it's the same Homeschool Open House I hosted on my blog in 2007 but with many more prizes! 

 

Happy Blog Hopping!

Since my poor little ole blog has been completely and utterly abandoned since the launch of The Homeschool Lounge (The very best homeschool community for Homeschool Moms) I new without a doubt there was no way we (my blog & I ) could possibly be nominated for a Homeschool Blog Award but I was WRONG!!!

We were nominated for "BEST BLOG DESIGN"!! Since this is not tooting my own horn (which I can not stand doing) I can shout it from the roof tops!

PLEASE GO VOTE!!!   VOTE FOR "LESS OF ME ~ MORE OF HIM" The basic concept of the blog was my own but Christi brought my ideas to fruitation with this amazing Blog design (if I do say so myself).

A vote for this blog will be a vote for Christi who not only put my blog together but has blessed so many with her lovely work including working tirelessly for TOS! Lets acknowledge this amazing hard working blog designer and fellow homeschool mom and vote for her design!  PLEASE???

Fall Into Reading 2008: Are You Ready to Read?

Posted in Homeschool



Autumn is crisp days and cool nights, a time to curl up around the dancing flames and sink into a good book. (John Sinor)

 "Happy Fall Y'all!"

It's time for the "Fall Into Reading 2008" challenge over at Callapidder Days!

Photobucket

How time fly's! I feel as though I was just putting this list together a few short months ago. My list will be rather short as I scarcely have time to shower let along read! LOL (Kidding)

On a serious note , most or all of my so called spare time usually falls on The Homeschool Lounge and rightly so. :-)

I do still make the time to read to the boys and we have a nice list of books that we will tackle throughout the year!


This fall we will limit our books to the following...

A Family Guide to Narnia: Biblical Truths in C.S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia by Christin Ditchfield
(We are finishing the above.)

A Family Guide to Prince Caspian by Christin Ditchfield

Farmer Boy Days by Laura Ingalls Wilder

Animal Adventures (Little House Chapter Books) by Laura Ingalls Wilder

The Long Winter (Little House) by Laura Ingalls Wilder

To sit alone in the lamplight with a book spread out before you, and hold intimate converse with men of unseen generations - such is a pleasure beyond compare. ~Kenko Yoshida

“A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint. What I began by reading, I must finish by acting.”

~ Henry David Thoreau

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers. ~Charles W. Eliot

Hugs, Blessings and Happy Reading!
