Getting Started
It has been a busy month for us Chamberlains! As of March 1 2012, Katie is a homeschool kid! We really knew so little about the process, especially the first week. 3 weeks out, I know we don't know everything of course, but I feel better about things. Kate is doing so well. She's excited to start every day, which to me says so much. Her dad is fighting me over it, but I am trying to balance being realistic with being optimistic. We have even gotten started with Bella. Today we started her "classes", which really means we spend 20-30 minutes a day at this point. I found a great website, thanks to Chelita, that pretty much lays it all out for her. http://www.letteroftheweek.com We are doing the Brightly
Beaming Steps
to Reading Program Step One with her. Today we started Week 1: Cows. Kate is using www.time4learning.com I really think she could do two years in one year next year, but first I have to get through the legal battle with her dad. I guess that's all for today!
