Still busy

Yes we are! The kids are doing great. DS is having to work a little harder on his math this year but he is doing pretty good.

Currently we are reading a book called, "The Story of Rolph and the Viking's Bow". They are really enjoying it. This is for history as we are studying American History and are now with the Vikings.

Science we are in the midst of the universe and stars and moving right along to planet Earth. We did get up the other night and lay a blanket out in the drive way and watch the meteor shower. That was neat and kids enjoyed it.

They are both doing great with their language arts. I've been very pleased with DS's writing. It has improved so much over the last 2 years. I'm amazed. DD's spelling is already improving since we started having a spelling list every week. (Last year she kept a dictionary of words she had a hard time with but knowing there will be a test she is doing GREAT!)

Well, that's about it for now. I've started a new blog over at http://www.homesteadblogger.com/mommy22ss you are welcome over there anytime.

Cruising along...

That's what we've been doing. The kids are doing great on their work. They get right to it and get it done without much fussing. I'm really proud of them. We've been having fun. They like doing their history and science together. We all gather around the book, or computer or whatever we happen to be using that day and do it together and they enjoy it. Me too.

How is your school year getting started?

Tomorrow is the day!

We will start our official homeschooling. We spent about week last month working a little but didn't have everything we needed so we put it off. But now we are ready to start. We are going to start this week with just language arts and math. We'll start out slowly as we have a lot of extra stuff going on this week so this will be perfect for us.

I'll let you know how it goes!
