Morgan's Spring 2014 Schedule

As I posted, Friday School is back in session!!  Morgan is so happy to be back with the friends she missed while we were on break.  

Morgan is taking these classes this semester:

Block A: Art

Block B: Craft World

Block C: American Girl Molly

In addition to these classes, she is doing GEMS and Karate.  In Karate, she is excelling because of her flexibility from gymnastics.  She can do the splits like no one I have ever seen!!  She is so talented.  I hope she can get back to gymnastics some day soon.  

Jaden's Spring 2014 Schedule

Spring 2014 classes at Friday School have already started up again.  The girls LOVE our group of friends. Jaden is taking some great classes:

Block A: Crochet

Block B: Art

Block C: Amerian Girl Molly

In addition to Friday School classes, she is participating in GEMS (Girls Everywhere Meeting the Savior).  She has been in GEMS for 4 years now.  This fall she will move up to the older group of girls called Discovery.  They earn badges for service projects and other things.  

We have not been able to do gymnastics for the past couple of years because the the cost of gas and classes makes it too expensive.  I do hope we will be able to add that back into the schedule some day soon.

On Wednesdays, Jaden goes to a karate class that is God-centered.  They learn karate, memorize bible verses, and work on becoming a better person thru service projects and character building.

Why I LOVE Homeschooling

I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE homeschooling!  I can not explain how exciting it is, especially for those who have not done it before.  Here is a short list of my extremely long list of why I love it so much:

1. God!  We get to talk about him ALL day long!  There is nothing greater in the world!

2. Choosing and using curriculum is addicting.  There are so many choices for curriculum, and I am so grateful that I can choose the one that works best for my students year after year.

3. I get to spend every day with my girls!  I am not missing a minute of their growth.  I wouldn't want it any other way.

4. We have the most terrific homeschool co-op.  Not only do the girls get to take extra classes with their friends, but the people there are like family.  

5. Field trips can happen all the time!  We have seen so much these past few years: museums, zoos, events, conferences, theater productions, behind-the-scenes experiences, and so much more.

Like I said, this is just a short synopsis =)
