Ready for school. I have been busy making my kids curriculum for the first week or so of school. I have duo tangs (for worksheets I make). These subjects are: geography, social studies (canada) science (currantly
learning periodic table, plus experiments), tracking, Writing , Nature Study, field trip reports. Also notebooks (for subjects where we go from book, to whiteboard to notebook) these are spelling, quotes (both are handwriting too), & rocks and minerals. For Math we hav
e a text book (Math Smart). for cultural studies we don't have a notebook or anything like that, same for learning our traditional language. we have some new books, new printer, pencils, coloured pencils, 3 hole punch, paper, erasers, glue sticks, new
games, new novels...Oh I am so excited. I got asked yesterday how come S.W. wasn't going to middle school like Sunny Not did. well first of all I have to deal with Sunny Not's Dad, that's the biggest reason she is not Homeschooled...at least she fits in. But more importantly why would I send him back to th
e system where he was a D student when he is now an A - B student. Who would do that? No one would even ask such a stupid question if he was getting these improved grades somewhere other then homeschool. I am lucky, I am generally supported in my decision and I know many families are not. Anyway back to my euphoria. I am just so excited to start. And we are not starting til Wednesday. Tuesday is day one but we are spending the day at the "Not Back To School" picnic. *sigh* it seems so far away :)
