Homestead Haven Beginnings

School is in high gear!!

Well, I think I was preparing for the worst as far as school is concerned, and I have been pleasently suprised!  This is my third year, but my 1st with 2 students.  I was very nervous because my son is a very different learner than my daughter.  DD7 is a very quick learner, and she could sit and do workbook pages alllllllll day long.  Abraham is very hands on, for instance, he didn't learn his colors and numbers with flash cards like my daughter, he learned them with his cars.  "Hand me the blue car...let's make the number one using your cars."  But he has taken a shine to this school thing, and takes his role as a kindergartener very seriously.  Hopefully it lasts!

We are part of a program where the kids get to go take enrichment classes, and those start tomorrow.  They are so much fun, some of the classes are ceramics, ag. animals, and ag. plants, wood working, family history and tons more!  It is a break in our week, and a time that the kids can go practice listening to someone else!

How are all of you homeschoolers out there doing?  Believe me, I am keeping all of you in my prayers!

Blessings, Rossie

I was supposed to start this week but with all that's going on I completely forgot to buy text books!

Guess I'd better get busy!

Happy School Days!
