  1. Thank you all so much! I feel much better after your comments. Whenever we have a rough day, I can feel pretty discouraged at my teaching abilities. It seems like we are right on track from everyone's comments so I will stay the course and keep positive. Thank you again!
  2. As homeschooling is still a fairly new thing for us, I have a hard time knowing if I am on track with my daughter's education or if I have unknowingly delayed her. We have been doing Ordinary Parent's Guide to Reading and are a little past half way finished with the book. We journal every day and her writing is great, but spelling definitely needs some work. We are working through SOTW for history, and we do a fun science program called mystery science twice a week. We also work on memorization with poetry and use math mammoth. Somedays - school takes us several hours and it is a challenge for both of us because she drags her feet on getting the simplest tasks done. Are there any other experienced 1st grade parent's that can comment on benchmarks and expectations? Thank you!
  3. Hello! We have three little girls and I started homeschooling the oldest for Kindergarten this year. We decided to place the the 3 yr old in a preschool for three days a week so I could focus on school with the oldest on those days. As the holidays approach, the 3 yr. old is having school programs and parties and I feel incredibly guilty for keeping the 5 yr. old home. She wants so much to be a part of the fun. We just moved to a small community and there is no local home school groups. We have talked with her to see if she would rather go to school or stay and do school with Mommy and she wants to continue home school. She is learning and doing well, but I feel like I am failing her on the socialization/fun aspect. Has anyone else faced this? I feel so bad. Thanks!!
