I'm working on getting back to blogging after a break to figure out exactly what works for us with homeschooling. Right now we're working on learning about life cycles (mosquitoes), weather, the human body, archaeology, and introducing Ancient Egypt and how farming changed the world.

Geekling has developed a serious interest in Minecraft and playing on a server with other kids has done wonders for his sentence writing abilities through chat. We're also just starting to learn about mining and geology which has great tie ins for American Geography and history.

I'll be using a lot of free adult educational resources to brush up on the necessary skills to be able to teach Geekling well and I will post links to all of the great resources available.
