Some glimpses of our summer! Brian and I celebrated our 24th anniversary. Lily traveled to Washington, DC. Nathan got a giant icee for helping me one day. Hunter had surgery. We saw movies (Twisters with Sam and Deadpool with Lainey, Anden, Hunter and Nathan). Brian had fun fishing on his camping trip. Sam had senior pics taken and, finally, we had a fun family vacation (minus Lily). Now we are gearing up for the start of another school year.
Our Homeschool Plans:
Sam is a senior (!!!) this year and Nathan is a freshman!! 2 highschoolers! We will be getting a new supervising teacher so that's always interesting. The boys are signed up for one class at MHSAP and we'll go on field trips, as well.
For classes, here is our curriculum plan:
-World History
-Astronomy
-IEW for writing
-Language Lessons for a Living Education for grammar and spelling
-Various books for reading (both independent and read alouds) and the Reading Detective for comprehension
-Spanish 1 for Nathan
-Medical Terminology for Sam
-Culinary workbook for both
-Apologia Who Am I? for Bible
-Teaching Textbooks for both and a Practical Math book for Sam
-Art will be various projects
This is the 1st year I have zero Barton for the boys!!! Of course, this is just the beginning so we'll see how we like the choices I've picked. I'm excited to get started and help Sam adjust to the thought of being done with homeschool!!!!!
