The kid is not to blame... we are both not as gung ho as we were
in the beginning of the year. He got behind and so did I, but we are trying to
make it up. The best part is that even though he has not been all in with the
school program, he still has been learning through reading and playing video
games. YES! Video games can be educational!
He is still up for learning to
write Japanese and he found a video game that will help him (I'm not surprised,
are you?). He is not going to buy it until it goes on sale though. Smart kid.
He has also decided he wants to cook without me or Dad in the kitchen with him.
He is going to experiment with different foods which I think is a fantastic
idea.
Even though we are not entirely
focused on the school work, we are still learning practical skills. This is the
best part about homeschooling... it is fluid and all up to you. We are going to
finish the school year strong even though we have gotten off course this
semester because homeschooling is what you want it to be - nothing more,
nothing less.
Happy Homeschooling!
