Is anyone else in shock about summer already wrapping up?

One of the biggest roles I play in life is that of teacher.
Home educating is one of my greatest joys and biggest challenges.

Though we do school year round, during the summer months, our load is lighter and I’m much more lax. Beach trips, play dates, and Lego building marathons often win out over more formal lessons.
And I’m okay with that, because living is learning.

During the traditional school year, we choose to be more structured and my life can be almost consumed with the task of educating older students (this year I’ll have a 5th and 7th grader; GULP!).

Over the next couple of weeks, I’m hoping to share what resources we use in our home for each subject.
I’m super excited for the new year, and I’m looking forward to this being our best year yet!
