Meet George. George prefers his history accurate, animals obscure, and costumes ornate. He has a wide streak of humor, a deep love of family, and a strong affinity for purple. He also has Tourette syndrome (primary: gross motor) and OCD. At the start of fourth grade we began exploring his love of learning at home. This website serves as an occasional showcase of what we cover. Thoughtful recommendations and reflections welcome.

Spinning wheel, round and round
Sometimes when George gets excited he talks so intently that he's pretty much oblivious to his surroundings. During those times I like to snap off like ten pictures and imagine he's a very short professor. Here he lectures after a demonstration of "What goes up must come down" using water balloons.

Sounds like a FUN lesson! When does summer break begin, so he can really put those water balloon skills to work?
We're slowing down, but we'll only take a few weeks off. Geprge does better with small, subtle breaks. Fourth grade will end July 31st, and fifth grade will begin mid-August.
