Schedule Switcharoo

Well, as it turns out, we only have three days for school this week. As mentioned, we took Monday off for Superman's birthday. And, I completely SPACED that tomorrow (Friday) is our monthly "homeschool meeting." It's essentially a few of us moms getting together to talk & let the kids play. But, we do usually talk about homeschooling at least once each time. :-) Anyway, I can't miss it. My friend just had her baby yesterday, so we get to meet *her* tomorrow!



Anyway, so we're all messed up here now. We might do a little school this weekend? Or just do Thursday's and Friday's work on Monday. Oh boy. Somehow we'll be working it out here.

As far as today has gone, it has just been strange. There was a lot of handwriting stuff today and as I have mentioned my son struggles in that one, so we are working slowly there. There wasn't much for us to do in Geography because I don't have any clue how to help my son memorize the states. I just had him add a few & name the ones we studied yesterday. I had looked at books at our library to see if I could find some "magical" book that would teach him the states, but I guess nothing like that exists. For science we are supposed to do the nature walk which just isn't happening this week. So, there wasn't much to do- yet we have been DRAGGING today. Mostly because of the handwriting issue I think, but there is a bit of "ugh" in all of us about doing our work.

Speaking of which, I really should get back to being focused. My son is waiting for me right now and that's never a good sign.

I should be back to post on Monday unless we get a few spare moments for school this weekend. See you then!
