Homeschooling has been interesting so far.
We been relaxed and not following a strict schedule. Dd wants to do school work at odd times and on weekends. Which is fine since homeschooling can be done whenever. When she works when she wants to, she works longer at whatever she chose.
Dd is also enrolled in extra curricular activities so she gets to do stuff with other kids.
Today we played with lentils and cardboard tubes. It was part of an experiment I found from Tops Learning Systems http://topscience.org They have some free science experiments to try using stuff that someone might have on hand.

Starting the adventure
Well, lets see, how shall we begin.......
Welcome.
Here at Acorn Grove we are homeschooling our dd this year so I'm sure there will be many adventures along the way. I'm sure there will be bumps on the road as well, but hopefully they will be small and infrequent.
The naming of Acorn Grove stems from all the acorns covering our backyard. I really mean covering! Dh had to rake them up the other day just to see if we still had grass under the oak tree LOL.
It is the 3rd morning of homeschooling. Dd is just 4 so what she's learning isn't too hard for me to teach her.
Well I'm off to see how she's doing with what I left for her to do while I was here.
I hope the weather stays nice so we can head to the library to get some good primary readers for her to work on.
