My Journey through Homeschool Land

Sep. 3, 2006 - Bells, canning, and planning/log sheet, Bible study

I'll start with bells.  Our ss class ordered a set of children's bells to try out and to teach the children how to play.  Their ultimate goal is to raise enough money to buy a large set of bells.  They are pretty expensive and very fragile.  The thoughts are to try to start some kind of ministry playing these bells.  I wasn't present for all of the discussion so I'm not sure what they actually want to call this.  I am suppose to come up with a way to teach some of them to get this started.  I guess I'll have to do some thinking and then play with them a little   I admit it, it will be fun to play with the bells.

 

Canning.  I canned spaghetti sauce yesterday.  I forgot how much time that took.  I think I have enough tomatoes to do 3 more batches.  Some of the tomatoes aren't ripe yet so later this week I guess I will do more.  I am thinking that I will prepare everything and do it all in one day.  I'm hoping to enlist the help of other members of my family. 

 

Log sheet sorrows.  I cannot find a planner or log sheet that fits what I need and want it to do.  I don't have a program that I can create one that I like either.  So my search continues even though this weekend has been busy with other things.  Any body know where I can find one?  I may have spare time tomorrow to look around a bit for one.

 

Bible study.  Next week starts a nine month intense Bible study.  This is my last year for it, and that is both a relief and a sorrow.  I have gotten to know some very nice and interesting people through this couse and will miss those that I don't get to see.  I have learned a lot but feel I have so much more to learn.

 

The girls played at church today.  The youngest was very nervous even though they played  a couple weeks ago.  They did very well and I think the nervousness will pass after she plays in front of people more.     She plays the violin which I think is a hard thing to play.  Her sister doesn't seem to mind playing in front of people.  She is a very out-going person and once she gets comfortable around people she has no trouble with shyness.  Not like her mother.
