Start of new school year

We started school about 5 weeks ago because we will be taking off some time during our move in September and October. I plan to take our math books, TOG Year 3 and Writing Aids. I will have the kids do math 2-3 times per week so they don't forget anything and we will keep a journal of interesting things done and seen while traveling. I started TOG 3 earlier than the online co-op we will be joining in October so we could take it easy during the move. By starting early, we will finish week 7 before moving into the hotel here in Hawaii and then will have to complete weeks 8 and 9 over the course of the next 6 weeks.

I decided to put aside the individual science curriculum in favor of doing a unit study with both kids. We started with air pressure and have moved onto cloud formations. We will be keeping a daily temperature chart for the next month or so to see how the temperature goes up and down in different areas of the country. I picked Divide, CO because that is close to where we would like to retire, N chose Herington, KS as that is where Grandma and Grandpa live and S chose Summerville, SC as that is where we are moving to. So far so good on keeping abreast of it each day.

I plan to move my other blog over to this site in a couple of weeks, or possibly after the move once I see if this site is easier to use than homeschool blogger. I have been having problems with pictures not loading and would like to post lots of pictures. It just makes the blogs so much more fun to read.
