Renai Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 @Carolina Wren I should specify: a Science Time Spanish class about Plants. Duh. I've considered it for a while but never moved on it. Speaking of classes, I'm trying to switch things up. I'm getting burnt out and bored. I love teaching, but need new things to teach to keep myself interested and my brain constantly learning. I also need passive income, so I'm not only making money when I'm talking to people. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Back from camp early today. My extended day student wasn't in today. I didn't get an email telling me why, which is a little unusual for this family so hopefully everything is okay. Although, now that I type it, I'm trying to remember if this is the family that told me they had a family member who was sick or injured, so if they missed a day, I'd know why. I probably should have made a note. We changed the plan a little for the rest of the week. The younger students in the afternoon are VERY young and there are a lot of them so we're adding more crafts and games for them and doing the more involved activities with just the older kids. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junie Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I've been planning science labs. I went through the labs we did last school year and checked the appropriate boxes in my high schoolers' grade books. We did 50 labs last year!! That's a record for us. In fact, I'm not sure if dd21 and dd19 even did 50 labs. They seem to be surviving college ok without them, though, so I'm not worried about it. I have long told dh that dd11 would end up with the best education because she benefits from years of learning from our mistakes. 3 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Morning. Happy Humph Day. I need to get up off my butt and finish getting ready in a minute. We're dropping dh's car off again because the AC stopped working again. Has a leak evidently but they put dye in it last time so they could see where. It's a 19 year old Suburban and one of these days he's going to have to accept that it won't get to 300,000 miles. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
