It's Been a While

Wow! The time has flown. I can't believe we are on week 4 already! I feel like we are finally coming out of the fog.
We are starting to get more done and into a routine. The confidence level has risen a bit as well. Our dance classes have started this week so this was a good week to feel like we are okay. Thursday we will work on the sarcofagus again and measure out the Ark using string. The younger kids may be going to John Heinz Refuge at some point.
They are studying birds so this is a real good time to go. Writing class seems slow to me but I'm following the curriculum and I'm seeing it's important to go over all the steps carefully so there is no question how to write the assignments when they come up. If anyone else is wondering what to do in the mean time, I suggest they do dictation every day. Even the 9th graders will benefit from that. Until Thursday!

You know Lin it seems that TOG doesn't do a lot of writing. I thought TOG would have them writing everyday.

Hi Lin! Nice to see an update! We finally started yesterday (we were on vacation last week). I can't wait to feel like we're "in a groove".

I'm sending you an email...needing a mentor moment from you (you're my longest running HS mom....so I thought you'd be a good place to go!)

LOVE YOU!
