I'm so happy!

This year is going to be great fun I think! We will have preschool through high school this year! In the past we have used unschooling, waldorf & more - this year we are totally changing our focus yet again & i have a really good feeling about it! Very excited!

My 9 year old dd will homeschool this year and my 6 year old ds wants to go back to Montessori...

What kind of program are you switching to???

Thanks mamas

She went to public school for 5 months . It was such a hard decision but it worked great for us!

I think we will be focusing on a classical education. I will be learning more about Thomas jefferson Education next month as well. We wont limit ourselves to just that - but I do feel like this will be a good base. I want to get a lot done this year - next year my oldest will go to college!!!! We just decided she will start college at 16. OMG! But we want to send her with a really excellent year of homeschooling as a sendoff.

We have also decided to add some academics for the 3 yr old. I never thought i would go there. But she is a little sponge, we have decided not to fight it with her like we did with the others. It'll just be fun stuff though LOL
