. Monday: Today was Jayden’s last science class at the RMSC. They learned about insects. He came home telling us that “bug” is not a scientific word. At the end of every class they always get a chance to get up close with one of the animals they have in the classroom there. This week […]
. Monday: It was Museum & Music Lesson Monday. We have been heading to the RMSC every Monday for the past 6 weeks in order for Jayden to attend a science class. The class never starts on time because of something I heard others call, “Homeschool Time” which is really a horrible excuse to be […]
. Monday: A long overdue music and museum Monday. We have been going to the RMSC every Monday recently for a science class that Jayden is attending. Today, Chloe, Ava, and I spent the entire time he was in class at the K’nex station. I encouraged Chloe to do something other than the gyro swing […]
. This week Chloe took the time to input her “schedule” into the calendar on her iPod and this is what it looks like! . Monday: Beach . Tuesday: Beach . Wednesday: Beach . Thursday: Disney . Friday: Beach . Now, I can (and will) add in a few more details for you, but that […]
. Monday: Today was a modified museum and music lesson Monday. Poppy kicked it into grandparent duty today! He had to take Jayden, a friend, and Ava to the RMSC. Jayden had his 2nd science class this week. This one centered around Solids, Liquids, and Gases. Both he and Ava came home with this “goo” […]
Monday: Today was the first of 7 science classes that Jayden will be attending at the RMSC. I was surprised how many children were there to participate. The first class topic was Discovering Weather. The classroom was broken down into 3 different stations (mini-experiments) for the kids to rotate through. Jayden and Chloe both thought […]
. Monday: Jayden has been spending time working on his salt dough map of Florida for his independent project. He was very much looking forward to finishing the written part of his project so that he could move on to the salt dough map. After getting it drawn out on the inside of his pizza […]
. Monday/Tuesday: We started out the week with our “work day”. Plus we had the addition of it being “testing time” here in our house. I have tested Chloe every year since 3rd grade, even though I only had to report them to the district in 5th and again next year for 7th and then […]
. Monday: Our bi-weekly Museum & Music lesson day! We were very excited for this one because the Colossal Dinosaurs Exhibit has come back to the RMSC. Ava is still pretty dinosaur obsessed and she was thrilled to see the T-Rex move and roar. In the photo below she is checking out the stegosaurus but […]
Monday: Today was our busy work day of the week. We diligently worked most of the day on our “bookwork”. To my surprise we stumbled upon two unexpected lessons. The kids asked me to read to them during lunch so I picked out Aesop’s Fables. This led to a discussion about the lessons, or morals […]
This week was an unusual one for us because all the local schools had their Winter Break. For us that means not hitting the museums and other local outings because they will be much busier than what we like. It also means that Chloe wants to fill her social calendar since most of her friends […]
A Monday: Today was a big day, for me anyways. I have had my blog for over a year now. But over the past few months I have been working towards making it geared more towards homeschooling. Both for myself to have easy access to all the links I love, and books I have read, […]
