Free Week for School




This is our free week! We rotate weeks for homeschooling as follows: 3 R's week, 3 R's week, fun learning week, and free week. During the 3 R's week, the kids do reading, writing, and math. We focus on those not-so-fun things like doing tests, workbook pages, and it can be a lot of work. Then during the fun learning week we get to do the "fun subjects" like geography, Spanish, Latin/Greek, Sign Language, music, art, cooking, science, and history. The free week is free for them, except we try to play a lot of educational board games. Here are a few of our favorites Parts of Speech, See It and Sign It, Made for Trade, Dino Math Tracks, Apples to Apples Junior, Rummy Roots, Postcards Across America, and any Professor Noggin card game. We try to go on field trips or the library during this week also. Well, we are off to learn!
