Good ol' PA

I asked hubby to consider homeschooling laws before he ever moved us to another state! LOL! He agreed. Actually, I hear MA is the absolute worst. Probably your best bet is talking to other homeschoolers in your district. I would also recommend joining the HSLDA.

Friday, we only got as far as copywork/reading lesson. Then, DH came home obviously not happy, and left right away without telling me what had happened at work, so that blew the rest of my day. I prayed for him while he was out and basically did housework while praying. I used the hose to clean off all the dish soap my boys had dumped on our front porch (trying to make bubbles--obviously, I was not tomato staking too well that day Smiling ). Well, that was the death knell to our well pump. Guess I burned it out! So, the guy came and fixed it yesterday; $900 later, we had water.

Got to church yesterday (biblical instruction) and Mom came over for lunch (family interaction) and left the Little House on the Prairie episodes she had taped for us (literature study).

Today, we did copywork/reading lesson, readers, language lesson (conjunctions, interjections, using commas in a series), math (a game of "Snatch"), and had lunch. Then we went to our friends' house (socialization) where the mom and I had a really nice chat and the kids played together. It was nice to get out and the day was BEAUTIFUL! My friend and I are planning a history co-op using Story of the World (just the two of us are interested, so far) for next year and are thinking of including science too. Smiling

Later!
