MrsMommy Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 We're not starting up again until Monday, but I did finally do a report for our summer school adventures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SorrelZG Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I don't have a blog to link but I was given permission to join in anyway! :) We are still working on a slow wind up. For the past two weeks we've kept a very light load while we got past jet-lag and worked on establishing a good daily routine. It may seem cruel that I started school the Monday after we got back in the country but we all needed the distraction and structure. My oldest has been doing math, copy work and dictation, and reviewing his Latin vocabulary from last year, my daughter has been doing math, phonics, copy work and spelling, and my youngest ones have been doing daily phonics lessons. After having four months off from formal lessons, they all hit the ground running with very little lost over the long break. I have so far been mostly impressed by their attitudes and excited by their progress and I am pretty happy about the choices I have made (so far) this year. I'm still not settled on writing for my oldest but I'm going to start a trial of Writing With Ease and KISS Grammar this week and see how I feel about it after a while. Classical Writing Aesop and Brave Writer are still on my nightstand. I might not be able to get a good idea of what is needed and what I will be capable of doing well until all our subjects are up and running (history, science, etc.) which won't be starting up again as soon as I originally planned because we are moving this week. The highlights have been my oldest getting his math lessons done with a decent attitude and mostly of his own accord and my daughter's growing skill and endurance in reading and writing. :D I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Oh my goodness, we just did this last year! We visited the States for four months smack dab in the middle of our school year and then returned to South Africa where we're missionaries. I was just wondering whether you are returning to another country or to the States permanently now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just returned to Cambodia after two months in the States (the two months before that I was just burned out and/or prepping for the trip).
