What is this?

Do you TWITTER? Um...What exactly does that mean? Please someone explain this and if it what I think it is, will someone explain one more thing...WHY?

Too Bad...

Too bad my kids have my sense of humor. Too bad my girls think pulling their pants up too high is funny. Too bad I got a picture of it. Too bad they will someday hate me for putting it on my blog. I love these wild and crazy girls.

Learning Style

I recently took a learning style quiz from a link I received from a homeschooler. I thought this was interesting (but who knows how accurate). See what your learning style is at:

Her are my results-

Nature Study

This year in school we have been spending more time in the best classroom ever, outside. Armed with bug jars and binoculars we have seen things we've never seen before. Here is our hike group.
What is it about an open field that makes you feel like you need to run, hop, and jump around?

I will continue to post our awesome discoveries in Nature's Classroom.

What are you reading?

I used to hate to read, especially when I was told what I had to read. Now, I quite enjoy it. I also love to hear what books others enjoy reading. So share with me your current and favorite reads.

My current reads:

Book 1 of Charlotte Mason's writings labeled Home Education

Louis Braille A biography for Rebekah's next book group

Pinocchio The original, not Disney. I am reading it to my girls. I thought I would hate it, but it is a fun read aloud.

Extraordinary beginnings to ordinary things My bathroom read, go ahead laugh, but I know you read in there too. :)

Some Favorite reads of mine:

Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury

What Ever Happened to Penny Candy by Richard Maybery (about economics, i actually don't hate or fear the topic after reading this book)

5000 Year Leap by Skouson (sparked a passion in me for the Constitution and the founding of our great country, and a sadness for where we are today in our government)

The Giver by Lois Lowry (I love, love, love her books, but this is my favorite)

Alright...I could go on, but that is a small sampling of books I would recommend to anyone who asked.

Well, off to bed and a little reading.

Howdy

So glad you came over to my very new blog. I can't wait to hear from you all. I will begin posting soon.
