Yeah - me either ;~)
~snicker~
Party part was pretty fun, but then it was followed by all the exit interview paperwork. Not quite as fun, that. :-\
Just got a couple things to finish up, then I'll be heading home.
The One Shoes now reside in the West.
But they long for their Master to the East. If I send them that way, they may fall into his hands once more!
I hate a boss that gets me drunk before she fires me :~)
Or do I love a boss that would? :~)
Tough call!
eh, you lost me.... I thought there was two of them?
Im also going to be mixing and matching with stuff from Calvert (I like their science kit) and MAYBE A Beka again..not sure...there is a local HS family that has set up a 'private' school that offers 6 weeks of "how to organize and study" which I thought would be good for the both of us. Im going with sonlight because they ARE using SWB's Story of the World for their history and I used it this past year...was very helpful in that regard. It was just planning out evreything else that drove me bonkers...Am also switching to MathUSee cause Saxon is starting to get a little too repetitive for her.
Definitely need to look at TRISMS again!
:p
They wants to be found...
Evening G'nad - great pics of thenewpup and thenewboy, luv them labs. Good choice on breeds and a rescue doggie to boot. God Bless You and Yours for giving the pup a loving family.
Good name Hair, 'Gunner' seems to fit.
Ramius and RMDupree: Great Pictures, thanks so much for posting them.
* the 10 years part *really* freaks me out.
You can print out a sample lesson plan from their site. I can't remember what grade your daughter is in this year. "History Makers" is designed for the Middle School years, but what a lot of folks are doing nowadays is doing that one over two years in the 6th and 7th grades, to get the kids used to the research needed for the program. "Discovering the Ancient World" is then done in the 8th grade, moving into the next program each year until the 11th grade, then spreading "Age of Revolutions" over the final two years of high school. It's quite a bit of information
Yeah, the Committee Chairman for Joseph's troop raved about Philmont. I know that some of the boys were starting to think about fundraising to pay their way there when they got on up into high school.
A whole year, you can do it! Make some goals and some sort of plan. That helps to keep motivated. At least it has for me since I started this triathlon kick.
Encourage them in any way you can. A Philmont trek may be the single most authentic and formative experience a Scout can have.
yuh say that likeitsuhbadthing...
