This week in our Homeschool

Today my goal is to actually follow the schedule I’ve set out for our homeschool year!  Some new things start today.  My 5 yo daughter starts violin lessons.  She is so excited!  I’m am so blessed to have found a teacher who comes to our house.  The older boys will be continuing their lessons, too.

Also, this evening BSF (Bible Study Fellowship) begins for the older boys.  This will be the first year in about 10 years that my husband won’t be in leadership!  The break will be nice, but I’m glad that the 3 of them will still be going.  They will be studying the book of John.

As for our studies, we’ll be finishing up our Pirates study this week.  I decided to fit it in before the more important history studies begin (Explorers, Reformation, Renaissance, etc.)  My oldest son has been begging to study pirates for about 3 years!

Here is a copy of the schedule.  We’ll see if I can actually do it!
