Busy, busy

This Friday we have this year's first field trip! There are so many amazing things to see and do close by that it's tempting to be out and about every day, but in truth we have a fair amount of desk work to get done and so cannot. Nevertheless we find time to go on many outings that enhance our understanding of said work, and for that George is grateful.

Planned outings for the next month include

9/6  TOWN CREEK INDIAN MOUND (Native American history, NC History)
9/11 HOMESCHOOL DAY AT OLD SALEM (NC History, US history)
9/14 NORTH CAROLINA MUSEUM OF ART (Art history, world history, performing arts)
10/4 DIXIE CLASSIC FAIR (Biology: biodiversity)

The first seven days of school have gone well! In addition to the regular NC math textbook, we are using IXL.com again this year. Math is still George's least favorite subject ever, but it's not quite as loathsome as it was a year ago.
