An Update

My Timehop app today showed pictures from 5 years ago when we were first starting school in our new schoolhouse!!  5 YEARS!!  I cannot believe I have been doing this for 5 years!

And it was amazing to see how much the schoolhouse has changed in 5 years!  Here are some then and now pictures!

The room is not the only thing that has changed!!  I was only homeschooling one child 5 years ago. Now I am homeschooling 3!!!!  The kids are in 5th, 3rd and 1st this year!

We are excited to be starting a new history program this year - The Mystery of History!  It is world history in chronological order with biblical history (from Christian worldview of a young earth!)

We are doing Apologia Astronomy for our science and super excited about that too!

I am putting together my own FUN English/Grammar program that will be interactive and will involve all three kids!

We are sticking with Pathway Publishers for our reading!  I still love that program.  We are still doing the Explode the Code workbooks for phonics work.  We are still using Singapore Math for our math curriculum.

The kids will be involved with Salvation Army classes as well.  All three will be taking choir.  Seth will be continuing guitar lessons and Aaron will be continuing piano lessons.  Alyssa will be taking dance and art!

Our first day of school will be this coming Monday - August 17, 2015!!  It is going to be a great year!

Until next time,
Kellie
