Friday Five

Well, the first week of school is in the books! Three days of learning down this school year...only 177 to go! :)

Considering the potential for issues, this week has gone relatively okay. There have been glitchy video moments, a few times of being unable to log in, and even some confusion about the overall schedule and when/who does what, but we got through it. Next week will bring the new challenge of me also being online at the same time, so that is when the real test will begin. Eek!

The one part we all really like about schooling at home is that we are so much less stressed and hurried in the morning. The boys get a whole extra half an hour to get done with breakfast and getting ready, and it makes ALL the difference.

The big boys had to do some physical activity and mark their pulses before and after they exercised. Both boys chose swimming. It was the perfect solution to exercising when it is hotter than heck outside. I am so, so glad we have our little pool. They both continued the activity while they broke up blocks of ice with a hammer. LOL. They LOVED that part, too!

Jack has to complete an "All About Me" slide show for his class. He spent this afternoon walking around the house taking pictures of everything so he could include it in his slide show. It is too cute. It has been nice that I've been able to sit there and give him one on one computer training. I'm not sure how he'd manage all of this technical stuff without someone there to walk him through it the first time. I feel for all of the kiddos who have no one who can do that for them.

Did I mention it's been hot? Sheesh. Hot, hot, hot. Inside and out!
