Please help, I'm in over my head.

Thanks OhElizabeth! I think I can get some of the dvds from the library and maybe Netflix. I'm so excited about our planned projects (so are my girls). We will try to post pictures as we finish them. I'm feeling much better after meeting with a wonderful woman who homeschools her 8 children. Between the amazing people on this forum and her, I am both inspired and excited for our future. We had decided to homeschool our children in the fall but with a little push from God this has turned into a blessing. -

I love the idea of spending time on Shakespeare. I was teaching her how to sew and we could make the costumes. My sister in law loves Shakespeare and we had planned to take her to live plays in a park next summer, but I think we should do it this summer. (we can all go in costume) (ok maybe not all of us) Do you think bju is not worth the money, what I meant is can we pull together most of the same stuff? I have to say I am so glad I joined this forum! Everyone has great ideas and has helped to ease my stress. -

I'm meeting with a local homeschool mom tonight. Are you sure we can choose our own submission dates? I think the lady at the district office doen't like me. Maybe I should bring sweets next time.:D Thanks for all your help. -

I went to hand in my paperwork this morning and they let my give them my notice, but told me they needed more details for our curriculum. What? So I asked them to explain what I'm missing. They want a list of books we're going to read. Ok anything else? Nope. Oh wait, she has to take the state tests with the school. What? Why? The answer, because she has to. Ok fine, whatever. I think they need her high scores to boost their stats. I need more coffee! -

Thank you! We love to snuggle and read together! I've been told our librarian is a little grouchy to homeschoolers but I'm going to butter her up with kindness.;) I love the idea of spending some time teaching life skills. (and I could use some help in the garden) -

Wow, thanks! In PS she is in 6th grade but she is in 7th grade English and science. I was going to order RS5 for my younger child so we will have it here. The timeline looks good, is there room for added drawings? -

Ok, I'm taking a deep breath. I guess I'm still in PS mode and I forgot we can change it as we go. I have a fear that I'm not going to do enough for them. Thank you for all your wisdom.:001_smile: -
My husband and I decided to homeschool our two DD starting this fall and I have been researching for about a month now. Now my oldest (6th grade) has had some issues with kids on the bus and we want to pull her out now. I need help filling in the holes! Math- Saxon Algebra 1/2 Language- R & S English 7 Science- BJU Space and Earth History- We have both the Kingfisher History Encyclopedia and DK visual guide, so with add lit and projects I think we'll be ok. Reading- all the classics we can get our hands on Geography -? Latin-? Timelines-? Writing- ? do we need more of this? Spelling? I don't know what else I'm missing! DD is a A+ student. I hope you can understand my frantic list and help me fill in the blanks. :scared:

Thank you Starr. Posting on the general board is a great idea but I'm still a little shy. I'll give it a few more days and then I'll repost there. Thank you the reply though.

I'm new to homeschooling and want to find people near us. We live in the East Fishkill area. Anyone? :001_unsure:
