Although we've had a major change in strategy for Misha, since the first term, it was still quite a hectic term, especially for Jesse who's still got the "school at home" scenario because of the pressure & expectations from Le-Amen. Of course all those tests & exams he needs to write cause me a fair amount of strain due to setup & marking, but it’s a sacrifice well worth making in light of the positive impact home education has had on our family & relationships.
All the boys' books have been handed in for monitoring today & will be available for collection again on 12th July. Until then, we'll be taking a well deserved break. Nothing but reading, fun & games for 4 blissful weeks for the boys.
Jesse's going away on holiday with his friend again from the 8th – 18th July, so we’ll be continuing education when he gets back home from holiday.
Of course I still have some backlog admin to catch up as well as tax return preparations that need to be done. I also need to prepare some more LapBooks for Misha to do next term. … but first I'll be spending a week on "scrap therapy".
I got a Holiday Art Box for Misha from Little Picasso today. He just couldn't wait to get home to start work on his Tin Foil Robot. Took it only took him a few minutes to complete it & here is the result:
There are 8 projects in the box. We'll be doing some this holiday & then 1 per month for the rest of the year.
