The first week of homeschool



We did it. We jumped off the public/private school wagon and started 7th grade with homeschool. Excited (both of us) and a little nervous (just the teacher) we embarked on a full curriculum of many subjects, new curriculums and a lot of enthusiam. Here is a picture of Katherine on the first day of school. Notice the tiara. It added alittle sparkle to the day.




We dedicated the dining room as our school room., installed a large whiteboard and posters on the walls. Katherine has a work area and I have a work area both with computers. We are close to the kitchen for easy access for the working/eating day.




World History, Math, Science, Bible, English and Reading are to Core subjects. Spanish, Spelling, Health, Flute and PE are the extra subjects. Our daily schedule always starts with flute practice. I am going to try to include a video of her practicing. Let's see it it works.? Nope...just a picture.
