back to school


Despite the fact that we're *still* not done traveling for the summer, I decided to start school back up. We started Monday. We'll go slightly light, leaving history and science off until after our next trip. We're going to Yellowstone & Glacier in a few weeks, so right now we're reading books & watching DVDs about the parks. That's definitely science-y, right?. It would be a pretty big stretch to call it history, though. So, that and the usual math, spelling, logic & some reading time are kind of easing us back into the routine.

Unfortunately, piddling and daydreaming are part of the routine and it has started already. All you wise homeschooling moms out there . . . can you help a sister out?? What do you do to keep the kids focused on the work at hand??
