Co-op Class Planning

Spent the afternoon with my two co-coordinators going over the co-op class proposals and trying to make some semblance of a class schedule for next year.

This was our second meeting going over this. So we are going on about four hours of finagling it between the 3 of us. I've typed it up into a spreadsheet as well. We're going to make sure we don't have any big errors in the schedule (already found one!) and also make sure we have all the teachers lined up to fit the age group needs.

We hope to have this finalized soon!

If you are interested in our co-op procedures, check out the e-book I've self-published. The link is on the left sidebar. The book covers everything you need to know!

They Came, They Bowled, They Partied

Today was our homeschool group's Valentine party, held at a bowling alley. The kids are invited to create a Valentine box to serve as a "mailbox". They are supposed to do this completely on their own (although I think some parents "help" a bit too much). Anyway, this is a 'tradition' in our group. We've done it for years now. Here are my children's entries. David did not participate. In fact, none of the 12+ crowd did. I think all 12 of the ones who showed up in that age group today were all boys!























No, none of my kids won a prize. Each age group was judged separately. But because I thought they each did a phenomenal job deciding what to make and making it, yes, on their own, I bought them each a prize myself.
