Well I am really hoping that with everything else I have going on with life I can get into the habit of actually blogging every single school day for us and then some. Unfortunately my almost 2 year old baby girl was diagnosed with pneumonia yesterday and so as you can imagine I just didn't have time for school, caring for her, and blogging so here I am tonight catching up. Yesterday we did end up finishing our work but it was around dinner time once we finished because of doctor appointments and chest x-rays. So as for yesterday I couldn't tell you anymore other than WE FINISHED!! Which in and of it self was a miracle.
Today went on to be so far the best day ever. We got a late start of 11:30 but as I was looking over their work I told the boys, "Look there is no reason what so ever that it should take you guys 6 hours to complete this work today. It should only take you maybe 2 hours if that." So I went over their work with them and they got right on it and they were done by 1:30. I was such a happy and blessed mama. Later this evening though we sat down to do some catch up work on a few of our fun activities and then I sent them to bed.
Kids In Bed + Quiet Time = Some School Planning For Me
The reason I am planning is because I am trying to go over each assignment before we sit down to do it together. This way I am prepared and if there are any pages that need copied or any supplies I need to get I have it all ready so that our lesson will go off without a hitch. I am starting to see quickly how much easier this make homeschooling life for me. Plus I get to enjoy the time I have with them instead of being to frustrated to do anything other than slam papers around because I should have prepared myself better. (Yes I am a Christian but we are not perfect, I to throw fits on occasion).
So now I am reading all these things that we get to do next week and I am so excited. There is a fun building activity that we get to do on Monday and my husband is off that day so he gets to participate. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ohh nice try, you thought I was going to actually tell you what it was. Well you will have to wait till Monday to find out.
Okay well I am going to finish up my planning, I just wanted to jot down my thoughts so that I didnt forget and then I am off to bed.
HAPPY HOMESCHOOLING!!
