Home Schooling
We start tomorrow with “official” homeschooling. I thought it would be fun to let grandparents, et alia, follow along, so there is a new page (you should see it at the top under the title) devoted entirely to Lucy’s little projects, my lesson plans, the books were’re reading, and the like.
Before you get too excited about it though, remember that Lucy is only two. So “homeschooling” at this point is going to focus on a letter a week (with themed books, crafts, snacks, etc.), a saint or two a week, and lots of playing and being two. But I’m hoping that getting an early start on the structure (!) of organized (!) home learning will pay off when we get to quadratic equations and the like in a couple of years (kidding, only Craig thinks that will really happen).
So check out the new page, there promises to be plenty of cuteness oozing from it in the weeks to come.
Whenever you get to the quadratic equation, call me, I made up a song to remember it
x=-b+-(sq rt)(b^2-4ac)/2a
thats right! i still have it memorized although I haven’t used in in OVER 10 years!!! the song works!
