when Ethan comes downstairs, and first thing Monday morning asks, "Mom, is it ok if I write a book about the Trojan War?"

uh ... yeah, it's "ok"?! :lol:

We've been "doing" Ancient Greece for a long time now, but he's just so immersed in it and drinking it up, I'm letting him dig in as deep as he wants. Even though *I'm* antsy to move on *lol*.

Today we'll start making a Greek warrior helmet out of paper mache ... wish us luck!

That sounds exciting!!!

I saw this post yesterday and it reminded me how homeschooling can be. We had a pretty crappy day yesterday, but today is a new day.

I would love to hear how his book turns out!

We spent over a year on Ancient Greece, and it was wonderful. It's really engrossing for some kids - my son, too.

Very cool! :thumbsup: I love it when we find a subject that ds is really excited about.

AWESOME!! I love those days too!!

What a cool kid (and mom)!

great!
