Well, we are getting ready to start our first day of school on Monday. I am particularly excited about the latin. Savannah listened to O Come All Ye Faithful in latin over and over to get the pronunciation down all day today. She will really enjoy learning a new language... just to show off. I'm excited about latin because she is excited. It is fun to teach enthusiastic students (Charlotte will be learning it too).
Charlotte is excited about spellingcity.com and the fact that I'll let her play spelling games until her heart's content. I put their spelling lists, vocabulary lists, and latin words on there for them to play with. Should be quite helpful.
I took our school pictures today; I'll have them up soon. I like to make IDs with them.
Monday I am going to surprise them with something special... I'm just not sure yet. A trip to get donuts maybe? Or frozen yogurt? Maybe I can wake them up early and we'll go stand at the end of the driveway and wave at the bus as it drives by, lol. That is MY favorite part. We are going to a Not-Back-to-School pool party on Friday with other homeschoolers in the area.
Piano lessons start on Tuesday; we took the summer off. Homeschool class (PE, art, computers) starts next month, along with Maddy's gymnastics class.
It was so great to meet you today and then I find out you blog! And have a classical bent! Hope we can get together again soon!
