Back To Homeschool

It's that time again..... back to homeschooling. I have 3 posts still in draft form that I had really wanted to get up last week but instead I decided to get my ducks in row.

We start back to school the week of the 18th so I spent last week and most of this week tying up loose ends. I ordered the last of my materials, set up binders, and bought all our supplies minus what ever items we find out they need for private lessons.

I have my teacher’s guides set up, the kids have all their books minus the few that should arrive any day and we have slowly begun the process of getting up earlier.

Even though we homeschool and have for 12 years I still love to stock up on supplies when they go on sale. I usually get enough to last the entire year and pick up crayons and such for my Wednesday night class at church. You may be amazed at how fast 1-3 graders can go through crayons, honestly I had forgotten.

We will be using Bob Jones Homesat again this year for everything except literature, we use Sonlight for that.

As I got things ready I suddenly became overwhelmed by the fact that this will be the last year I homeschool my daughter, she is a senior this year! As if that was not enough by baby will be 13 in a few weeks. The older they get the faster time goes.

Stayed tuned I plan to get those three post finished up over the next day or so and posted, including some homeschooling tips.
