Oct. 22, 2009 - It's a challenge..
Yes it's a challenge for me. Learning to teach my dd who has some special needs. Learning the best way to help her learn the best way she can!
We follow a unit study method of learning and while my other children do well with it Gabriellia does not. So yesterday I pulled her out of the unit study and begin to use textbooks. I was pleasantly surprised to see how well she did! She read and answered the questions getting them all right. I think she just needs something more concrete in front of her. I am excited to see her blossom! :)
Our astronomy unit is going well. The children are learning alot. We're on day 4 and we have gleaned much information already,
We have learned about the moon and did some moon mapping. The sun was next. We drew the stages of a solar eclipse. Yesterday my children did solar system worksheets on each planet filling in each planets information. Things like color and appearance, distance from the earth, composition, etc.. We will be doing some neat experiments with this unit and learning many new things we didn't know before!
Well, it's time for learning! :):)

Isn't it great that we can homeschool our children so that they can learn in a way that best suits them!
