This is our last full week of lessons. We will be doing Math over the Summer, plus my son has to finish Biology. We will be doing two to three days a week, of about 2 hours of work. Caitlin will be doing Writing along with her Math. She is currently writing a book on Wattpad, but does not want that included in her school work, so that will be free time work. DJ is also at a stand still on his second book, so that is also on hold until he figures it out. Wattpad has helped encourage Caitlin and her creative writing. Assigned writing assignments are still a hassle, but she is getting a hold of it. So, over the next few days, I need to come up with final exams for each child, and each subject. Biology, no final needed, he holds an average of 100, and Caitlin is finishing up her Science testing, and should be done soon. I, believe it or not, have next year's curriculums almost completely chosen. I will be sharing those in the coming weeks. I also have to start working on our portfolios, for our yearly evaluations in August. There are two websites I want to share with you, to use over the Summer months.
Nanowrimo is doing a Summer writing contest. DJ did their Fall contest, and loved it. However he is not interested in doing it over the Summer, much to my sadness. It is completely free, and an awesome way to get your kids writing. He will be doing it again in the Fall. Click this link to check it out.
Second, I got an email, yesterday from Homeschool Buyers Co-op with their list of free for Summer class offerings. There are several awesome options here. I took advantage of Mathhelp.com and Emusic. If DJ likes the Math format, and setup, then I will buy their Geometry course for next year. Otherwise I will stick with Saxon Geometry, which I have not yet purchased. Be sure to read all the directions when you sign up for any of the classes. They are not complicated, but there are steps that must be followed. You do have to be a member of the website, which is also free to get the deals. Click this link, to visit and check out all the offerings.
That is it for now. Be back in a few days with more awesome stuff that I find.
