I started homeschooling my daughter this year.She is in the 4th grade, and I really wish that I had startedhomeschooling sooner. Overall, I think that it's been going a lotbetter then we all expected. The one think I was prepared for was allthe work that's involved in homeschooling. The scheduling ofassignments and tests, the grading of assignments, and everything elsethat is involved in keeping things running smoothly. My daughter justfinished up her Unit 4's right before Christmas, had a two weekChristmas Vacation, and now we are starting her Unit 5's. We have acurriculum that we ordered for her, and it consists of 10 Units foreach subject per year. She is taking the following subjects: Bible,Science, Language Arts, Art (it was offered as an elective and shereally wanted it, and have since found out that it's for high schoolstudents.... but she's doing quite well at it), Math, and lastlyHistory & Geography. We have it planned out that at the rate we aregoing she will finish her Unit 10's in June, so she will get 2 monthsoff during the summer.
I know this post has nothing to do with bunnies, but the Homeschoolingis a huge part of my day, and today especially I've got a lot on mymind with it because I've got to tabulate all of her assignment'sscores, her self test scores, her final exam scores, and her overallgrades. Then I type of a in-depth progress report, so we have recordsof what she's learned and how she's been doing. The whole process lasttime took over 2 hours. (at least i do it for 2 units at a time so it'snot a monthly thing). Grrrrrrrrr....... It's so worth all the timeinvolved, but on days like this it is sooooooooooo tough. Sorry for thelong venting ramble. I promise not to do it again!
