The Olympics are here! I love using the Olympics for school. I have since we started homeschooling in 1991. (yes, I’m old! lol) Since I had so much information to share about homeschooling and the Olympics, I put it all in a separate post, Homeschooling and the 2012 Olymmpics. Stop by and see what we do!
The three youngest kids have all been at sleep away church camp this week. It sure has been quiet around here! When they left Monday morning:
I sure have missed them and can’t wait until they get home tonight!
Before she left, Hannah made a toiletries case she had seen on Pinterest. Here it’s rolled for the suitcase.
And open, it has 3 “slots”. You could also put more “slots” in if you wanted. It depends on the size of the items you’ll be putting in it. Very clever and I think she did a great job!
Monday is back to school for us! First up is sending in our homeschool notification letter. Since the Olympics coincide with our back to school dates, we won’t be starting a full load of book work until the Olympics are over. We’ll concentrate on the unit studies, lapbooks and activities for the Olympics. As well as items we are working on for reviews.
I posted a review last week for Super Duper Publications Hear Builder Auditory Memory. If you looking for a way to increase your children’s auditory memory, check it out. I also posted a review for Knowledge Quest TimeMaps. Very cool!
