Our Homeschool space

We love our homeschool space downstairs! It's a great place for our maps and timelines and we have a nice home library and large chalkboard. While this is super fun place, most of the time our classroom and our learning happens upstairs around the kitchen table! Still this is a fun space and I love to show it off! One of my favorite things is the boys artwork! Masterpieces for sure! When we school upstairs my IKEA cart has been a lifesaver to stow all our books and art supplies. I love it! Getting our classroom set up and organized is one of my favorite homeschool things to do! I love creating a nice space for the boys to do school! 

It's a new year!!

Somehow time has gotten away from me and we finished up 1sr grade and I now have a 2nd grader and a Pre Kindergartener!! Our first year of homeschooling was a lot of fun and a lot of learning but after just a month now into our second year I feel so much more confident. I think a huge blessing was the My Father's World curriculum that we are using this year. It has been great keeping all of our subjects tied together and just rich with history and bible. I love it! Evan is using Adventures which is an amazing year full of US history! Lane is using Gods Creation A-Z and as he works his way through the Alphabet he is learning wondering Bible points like S-Sun , Jesus is the Light of the World , and A-Apple, If I stay in Jesus I will have much fruit. Along with MFW we also use and love Math U See for math and Explode the Code for phonics and Evan is using Primary Language Lessons for English and A Reason for Handwriting. Mr. Jace, although not pictured, is learning right along beside them! The other day he told me that Meal Armstrong (Neil) went to the moon and that Christopher Columbus came from Spine (Spain). Little minds soak it up!! I hope to blog more regularly this year and capture our fun that we are having so that the boys have a nice end of the year yearbook. Soo , here's to a new homeschool year! 2014-2015 :)
