Crisp Autumn Air Is Upon Us!

Wow, autumn sure is arriving these days! We are trying to savor the last days of skipping outside with just a tee or long sleeved shirt on! The temp range lately has been 55-70 for the highs.

On walks we have been collecting leaves and getting supplies for autumn projects. I love to hear the leaves crunching underfoot! We are hoping to make a huge leaf pile this fall!

Emily has been a great student! We are awaiting a new shipment of books, they should arrive tomorrow. It is Singapore Math. She has been using Kumon math books in the interim and they will serve as an awesome supplemental system when the Singapore Math arrives.

Now that we have a good routine in place we will add in a group session on Fridays with some awesome friends of ours. Emily has also started Good News Club, an after school Bible club that is held in a public school. Tonight she started her dance classes for real! She absolutely loves Tap and Jazz! Who says homeschooled kids aren't socialized? That is the go to question usually when people are asked about their decision to homeschool. When will the child be able to socialize with others their age? Hmm, I never sent my daughter to school for 'socialization', I sent her for education. So, we are now getting into our new routine with so many activities starting up. Want the run down? Here it is!

Monday~      Good News Club   3-4:30
Tuesday~      Tap Dance             5-5:30
                      Jazz Dance            5:30-6
Wednesday~ Awana                   6:30-8

At some point we will add piano lessons in also.
