I began this blog to create an on going yearbook of our homeschool chronicling our highs & lows with photo's and journaling. Through the past few years I have really enjoyed getting to know so many homeschool moms and their families. Being a Homeschoolblogger has been both fun and encouraging. Please make yourself comfortable and enjoy getting to know us and how we learn at home!
The Homeschool Lounge is hosting their annual Homeschool Open House where you can share about your homeschool plans for the upcoming year,meet other homeschoolers, and win great prizes too!
Our curriculum plans for 2009 are listed over in my right hand side bar under each of the children. We will continue to participate in co-op which has been a huge blessing over our last 9 homeschool years! I have seen the Lord provide many opportunities for the kids through co-op....
Kayla will continue with Spanish 2 (a great class to study within in a group) and will be completing her
Apologia Chemistry labs at co-op (while completing the textbook at home).
Jordan and Jesse be taking a NY state history class which goes along perfectly with the "Around NY in 80 Days" curriculum I was planning to do with them anyway! Also, Jesse will be taking a gym class.
Joshua will also participate in co-op! He is taking a gym class for his age group as well as partcipating in a "ABC" class that I will teach.
All of these classes help to relieve my teaching burden as well as meet NY State requirements!
At home we are trying out a few new (to us) books as well:
My favorite resource for buying Homeschool materials is Rainbow Resource! If you've never tried them you need to visit their website and request one of the 1000+ page catalogs!
May God bless your homeschools this year!
WAIT!!
Here are just a few of the great prizes you can win just by entering.... below are my top choices!
1. Rainbow Resource Center gift card
2. Homeschool Boutique T-shirts
3. Home Educating Family magazine subscription
Thank you for stopping by my new wordpress blog at whateverstate.wordpress.com. Like you, I have been homeschooling many years - and am a homeschool grad, too! I hope you will come by again and share the site with others who may find the discussions resources encouraging.
