Most of the time when my grandchildren leave Crain at the end of the day, I am at work. Today was different. I had to go to Corpus and got back just in time to go to the school to give them a ride home. I have never been so frigging appalled in my life!
These children have to cross Airline at...

Well the semester is nearing the end. I always like this time of year because it allows you to breath deep, in other words EXHALE.
This has really been a hectic semester. I am in school, I have a 12 year old and an 8 year old in school, I work full-time, my husband works full-time,...

I feel like a hypocrite. I know I always say, “There is a difference between school and learning; focus on the learning,” but it’s really hitting home. Less (school) is more (learning.)
While looking over my learning journals I made some...

Teaching your child at home is legal in all fifty states. The legal details and regulations vary from state to state but in Texas a homeschool is recognized legally as a private school so your child would be exempt from compulsory attendance laws.

My son is pretty nervous about having to take this test. I think it is simply ridiculous that the children's destiny is dependent upon a test. No matter what you do during the year, if you don't pass this test, you don't go on to the next grade.
This is absolute absurd! What...

I blogged yesterday about keeping a learning journal and how this helps me document informal learning that takes place in the home. I thought that I would share a sample entry. This is from October 7, 2003:
Today, K**** taught me how to add 100 + 100. She even explained why...

I just never took them to school, so here we are! Kidding. I was raised by two teachers and often played “school” for hours with my many plush creatures. I created tests, took those tests, graded the tests, recorded the grades, and averaged the grades so that my...

There is some kind of terrible virus going around. I had to pick-up my little boy from school this morning 45 minurtes after his arrival. I already had a scheduled teacher conference (9AM) this morning and I couldn't get my foot out of the door soon enough before the school nurse...

Busycountrymama has simply been a little too busy. Is anyone else feeling that way? The college semester is definitely full speed ahead……and I took my only day off during the week and agreed to work that day also (for a month) out-of-town. I must have been crazy at...

One of my favorite memories while homeschooling my children was when a few homeschool families decided to start an informal Ancient World History Co-op. Those families who were interested in the co-op were encouraged to purchase “The Story of the World” and invited to...
