We had another good week of schooling. We didn’t start quite as early as I had planned, but we still did all start together. I’m thinking of tweaking our start time a little so my oldest, who is a night person, can get a little more sleep. I’m still undecided on that, so I will…

Weekly Wrap Up (1/9/10)
What a great first week back to school! Over the break I had some time to think about why we weren’t getting as much done as we should be. I instituted (or re-instituted) some practices that had worked in the past. I realized that I’ve allowed myself to be influenced by how other people homeschool.…
Weekly Wrap Up (12/4/09)
I had just written up a fairly lengthy post when I hit the wrong button. It is kind of fitting with the way the rest of my day has been going. So rather than rewrite it; here is the last week and a half in pictures. The Thanksgiving table before the feast. We went on…

Weekly Wrap Up (11/20/09)
What a week this has been. Certainly far from typical. Monday was my birthday, so we took off school and I went to a day spa. Well, not quite. We had a somewhat typical school day except that during the day I made myself a coconut cake and helped my children finish preparing for their…
Weekly Wrap Up (10/30/09)
Another week finished! The year is flying by. I can’t believe we’re through October already. Our week started out as a fairly typical week. Everyone is making good progress in their individual studies. My older son finished Life of Fred: Fractions this week and passed the Final Bridge on the first try! (For those unfamiliar…
Weekly Wrap Up (10/23/09)
It’s been a while since I’ve done a Weekly Wrap Up at Weird, Unsocialized Homeschoolers. This week was not an ordinary week, but I’m beginning to realize that ordinary weeks don’t really exist. (I know it’s amazing that it has taken me this long to realize that!) Since I have failed to write a wrap-up…
Weekly Wrap Up (9/26/09)
It’s time for another Weekly Wrap Up at Weird Unsocialized Homeschoolers and I am struggling to think of what to share. We did start our Tapestry of Grace studies this week. The little ones and I read one book about St. Valentine and another called Brigid’s Cloak. We all began listening to an audio book…
Weekly Wrap Up (9/19/09)
It’s time for another Weekly Wrap Up at Weird Unsocialized Homeschoolers. I’m not going to make this another listing of curriculum. That would be time consuming. (Not to mention boring for you.) So I’ll just summarize some of the things we’re learning. (And a lot of them aren’t from a book.) First, we started our…
