First Day of School

Today was Twiggy's first day of school and I must say I was pleasantly surprized by how the day went. We decided that we are going to, as much as possible, stick to a schedule of starting school at 10 o' clock and finishing around noon (being she's only in Kindergarten). I'm very thankful because Twiggy announced at supper tonight that she couldn't wait for school again tomorrow. As of her first day, here are Twiggy's stats:

Favorite subjects: Math and Art

Least-favorite subject: HANDWRITING (only a few tears were shed)!!!

Words she can read: cat, hat, pup, cup, etc.... and spank (you should've seen the look on her face when she figured that one out)

Favorite Teacher: Mommy (heh, heh....)

Curriculum used: Math-U-See and Five in a Row.


I'm sure we'll have days when we will wonder what in the world we're doing, but if today is any indication of what homeschooling could be like, I'm one very excited Mommy! Posted by Picasa
