Our first year home was spent "deprogramming" the boys. I constantly heard, "That's not the way Mrs. xxxx does it!" Also popular was the suspicion that I had no idea about ANYTHING. I fixed that! LOL.

We use a couple "canned" courses. Math workbooks that they work through on their own with help from me when they get "stuck". A beginning Latin course that we work through very slowly. They have really started to apply it in everyday language. I pull grammar out of a text to go along with the Latin work. History of Rome. Some basic science, although dad usually comes home with aerodynamic lessons for them.

The rest of the time they read and play. My boys love chess, although the younger is very frustrated with losing.

If I had my 'druthers, we'd be outside all day long doing whatever we wanted. Too many neighbors :-)
