Wow, it's hard to believe all my babies start school today! Lauren started local kindergarten for the first time, Katherine is in the same kindergarten but a different grade, Benjamin is in 2nd grade, and Regan is 3rd grade/4th grade.
First day of school...what cute classmates!
My deal was put up with Mommy and all of my pictures and you can make silly pictures when we are finished. They are just too funny!
These two are classmates this year. It is our first year of homeschooling. It was a great day and they had fun.
And of course, they wanted a silly photo as well.
Here we are going down the elevator. She has been waiting ALL summer for this day!
Jonathan carried their school bedding and pillows and they ran to school. Well, I should say, Katherine ran and Lauren tried to keep up.
Big sister, Katherine, was in her element. She is my shy one, but when it comes to school, she is full of confidence. Lauren was looking back at home....probably thinking "What am I doing?" :) I picked them up from school and both sets of teachers said that they did great! Lauren's teacher said that at nap time she sang at the top of her lungs. They finally had to tell her that she had to sing in a whisper. :) haha!
When we dropped them off, each class had a station to play at. It made for a very easy drop off time. No tears. Not even a good bye! They just ran and started playing.
I guess we'll find out tomorrow if they rotate through all of the play areas. Katherine is so excited because her class goes swimming tomorrow! How fun!
Here is our school logo! Sheddan Academy is now open. Go Cougars! :)
Sometimes they work together at this table in our living room and other times they are at their desk in their bedroom.
This week in geography we are reviewing the continents and the oceans of the world. Our hand-drawn continents didn't quite fit on the map, but it's close enough. They are also studying history, Bible, science, geography, reading/literature, spelling/vocabulary, handwriting, math, computer, and P.E. Wow, looks like a lot when I see it written down, but it is fun.
Now for the "school uniform fashion show" that the little girls gave when we picked up their uniforms 2 weeks ago! This is obviously the current uniform....for summer and spring.
Fall
Winter
school winter coats
And then this one just to end on.
