Both public/private schools and home schooling have their pros and cons. Home schooling lacks "organized" field trips (although we take tons of "unofficial" field trips every month), learning the protocols of a classroom setting, and other things like plays and public speaking. Public/private schools lack, among other things, flexibility, custom teaching for specific learning styles and the ability to let a child discover the subjects they are passionate about and pursue them as long as they desire.
Since we are home schooling, we found a co-op of other families would handle both the difficult things to incorporate into our home schooling situation all the while maintaining the benefits of teaching our own kids. These are snapshots of our classes this last week. In the top two Dodge and Scoochy are making clay models of the brain.
The third one shows Princess Cutie Pops' class getting its grub on. Brain cupcakes are the snack item for the day. Can you guess what we studied this week? (answer below)In the final photo, Tank, ladies' man, escorts his adorable pink boot-clad friend throughout the building. They walked, hand-in-hand, for at least 15 minutes. Can I get an "awwwww"?
answer: the brain
