Our Journey As First Time Homeschoolers

Day Three

Posted in Our First Week

Today went great. We are LOVING the feedom of schooling at home!!! Brittany is understanding so much more already just by having things explained to her in a way that SHE understands instead of how a teacher THINKS she should understand. I worked with her on long division (writing it out instead of doing it on a calculator) and she understood it right away. We are going to practice more with it for the rest of this week and next week, and longer if need be.
Brittany is also finding out that she can actually ENJOY learning things she did not enjoy so much at school. She loved The Diary of Anne Frank video, and has even asked us to purchase a copy for her! Now that was a SURPRISE!!! She is also really interested in learning about the Dust Bowl!

Things are going great! My only regret is that we did not do this alot sooner!
