For our portfolio review this year, I'm going to give the blogging portfolio a try. Our reviewer is a great lady, a fellow homeschooler and also a public school teacher. This is our second year working with her and our first year doing it via blog. I'm not sure what the final product will be exactly, but I do have some ideas. I think I will do a seperate entry for each subject covered, then various entries with examples of their work. Things may change as I figure it out and tweak it along the way, but I'm up for a challenge and look forward to chronicling our year.
Our state requires that we show progress in 5 areas: reading, language arts, math, science and social studies. So I'll do entries for each of them for each of the children, and probably doing a lot of entries for all three children as we study a lot of things as a group.
So, here is my intro for the 2007-2008 Portfolio Review. I have about one month to get it all worked up and emailed to her. Wish me luck! |
