"Look at that! It popped!!"
Planet cupcakes
We have been learning lots of fascinating things. For the past two weeks we have been doing a little solar system study. We also did a science class with a little friend on chemical reactions. Today we are going to finish up the solar system study with the moon. We will make a poster of the phases of the moon! It should be fun!!!
I am really loving homeschooling so far, but I wasn't prepared for how mentally exhausting it would be. It really takes a lot out of me. I find I just don't have the energy to do a lot of activities I used to do more often before. But, we are still in the adjustment phase. Also, since undertaking the homeschooling job, I have a greater appreciation for what public school teachers do. They have a hard job, and I am grateful to them for all their work!
i think you're doing a great job! i like her poster, and i wish i'd learned about the solar system with cupcakes - yum!
ReplyDeleteWow, I am so impressed! I didn't know you had decided to homeschool! Did you just start after Christmas? How on earth do you do it!?!?! I love the solar system, it looks amazing. I look forward to reading more about your adventures. :)
