Transitions

The last few weeks of summer have been packed with fun, and I have loads of pictures to share when I get a moment! But for now, we are transitioning to the fall. Don't these cool evenings call for bonfires and smores? During this, the last official week of summer, I'm working on lesson plans for my little kindergartener. Over the past two years, I've been following homeschool blogs, groups, and talking with real live homeschooling moms :) to get their opinions on everything from curriculum and scheduling to teaching different personality types. This past year we've been extremely relaxed with homeschooling for preschool, learning whatever we felt like it, whenever we felt like it. Now it's time to have a plan and be intentional about studying academics every day. So... on to the next adventure.
