The pics were great. It sounds like they did a lot of cool stuff for their Native American Day–what a great way for the kids to have fun and still learn. I think it’s great that your kids are starting to see the upside to what you’re doing.

i was pleasantly surprised that all the kids talked about when school starts next year and seeing their friends. a marked change. but this summer many of their friends will be traveling so that will make it hard.

We still have one more day. It drives me crazy. The oldest has exams, so fine, I get that. But the 7 year old? Movies and snacks all day today, fun day tomorrow. They haven’t had reading in two weeks, haven’t done any work all this week. Why do we have to go this long into the summer? How about we end at Memorial Day and just agree to actually work right up until the day before the last day. I don’t mind ONE day of fun!

i know, for the older one the last week was all field trips, all the time. but he enjoyed them and i don’t think he would have preferred to be home. the younger too had a few things, reports and stuff, but i have a hard time believing they actually changed any grades. i’m sure grades were turned in by friday. no matter when they get out there’s always a few days at least of nonsense.

I thought it was Winter there, your still in the Northern Hemisphere then? I really should brush up on my geography!

yep, northern hemisphere. and i think they could label their seasons. hot, hotter, wet & hot and maybe not hot – no – it’s hot
