summer school

We are making suns to celebrate the upcoming summer solstice. Xavier thinks Iris's paint might be better then his and he ought to try a swipe :)











Serena is going to 7 on her birthday so that means we need to start recording our hours of school. In Missouri a child must do school 1000 hours a year. 600 must be in the core subjects and 400 can be other. This doesn't need to be turned in to anyone but we need to have it in case someone were to accuse us of not educating our children.
I got a binder and am keeping a diary of what activities we do and the time it takes . our goal is 1hour of math a day, 1 hour of art or music, 1 hour of science or social studies ( I am doing science one week SS the next so we can focus on a topic all week, this week is science and we are studying oceans) and 2 -3 hours of LA

Iris is learning lots right along with Serena.
She loves doing school because she is a big girl now(3 1/2) and doesn't let us forget it :)
