School Board Cuts out Lunch Choices03 Jun 2008 07:25 AM I agree, at best there could be the hot lunch, and/or a choice of pre-made sandwich. How Do You NOT Know When Your Child has Gone Missing at an Airport?16 May 2008 10:27 AM I can't imagine. I traveled frequently with my kids from 6 weeks of age until about 8 and 10 when airlines just got too expensive after 9-11. Not only did my kids know by the age of two how to keep close to us, even if it meant taking out someone's ankles with their little roller luggage, I don't don't think our eyes left their little bodies for a moment... not even long enough to sneeze. The problem is much bigger than leaving the kid unsupervised in an airport. How many times have you been in a mall and seen kids running about with parents not paying attention. One time I had a 3 year old kid run me down and repeatedly ram me with a cart.. it took me 5 minutes to make him stop and find his parents! End of Year Gift Giving14 May 2008 09:37 PM Today, I cleaned out the chest where I keep photographs and momentos. I cam across a little brown notebook shaped like a hershey's kiss. In it, there were notes from members of my child's family, including myself, telling my child why we all think she is is special. On the last page were notes from her last two teachers. I vaguely remember this year end progress that was done by teacher and parent together. I remember my child's last year at school (before we began homeschooling) as being very turbulent, but now I appreciate the efforts of the teacher to be as loving as possible under the circumstances. Does Education Slack at the End of the Year?14 May 2008 09:23 PM I think that end of the year activities are needed to balance out all of the testing that also occurs during this time... (at least as I remember it anyway). Socialization of Homeschoolers in the Upper Grades13 May 2008 04:40 PM This is not my experience. We are fortunate to not have any problems with our middle school age kids finding friends and fitting into any social groups. Still getting kids together can be hard because middle school homeschoolers are pretty busy people. Between drama club, fencing, and church groups, and academics my kids barely have time to get together for the sole reason of socializing. What Annoys Me About Mother's Day09 May 2008 06:27 PM Interesting... I feel the way way about Christmas.... On mothers day I want breakfast.... and clean sheets. What Does it Feel Like to be a Homeschooler?23 Apr 2008 09:46 AM Nancy, that sounds so exciting.. I will definitely check out your website! Is It Time for a new Homeschooling Survey?15 Apr 2008 10:38 AM There is not one large group that I am aware of but most states have statewide groups. You can find them through your local school district homeschool page if they have one or the HSLDA ;) group page page if they list it. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 |
