Back to School

Like everyone else we have started back to school. Although as homeschoolers we never really stop having school. We believe that learning takes place all of the time, not just when they are sitting at a desk.

We are trying some new things this year. One thing we are doing differently is dividing the subjects (half one day and half the next). This helps to give Tanek a break from all of the writing he has to do this year and we can concentrate better on the subjects we are working on that day.
Our homeschool group will be getting back together next week to start meeting regularly. We took the summer off so I think everyone is now ready to get going again. We have some great field trips planned for this year and I don't know who is more excited the kids or the adults. We plan to check out the U.S.S. Kidd, a plantation, the Louisiana Renaissance Faire and much more.

Here is to a fun and educational school year!
