It really bothers me. I want my kids to do their work and then live their life. <br /><br />Oh wow I didn't know that about sandals! I am going to have to read up on that. <br /><br />Thanks so much for reading this and for your awesome comments! I love getting to know you better too!theconners4https://www.blogger.com/profile/01500447272972262444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1227164142632960105.post-16361437298960369762010-06-24T08:41:10.046-07:002010-06-24T08:41:10.046-07:00I read somewhere that sandals are actually good fo...I read somewhere that sandals are actually good for your knees, because they encourage natural step, rather than those shoes that you don't even get your foot anywhere near the ground.<br /><br />Good luck with the driving!! My scariest moment driving: first time on the highway! I was terrified! But you know what? I lived. And no one hit me. And I didn't hit anyone else.<br /><br />I don't have any homeschooling tips, I'm sorry. We are thinking about homeschooling. We both had positive public school experiences, but we are Catholic and question the way morals are going and being pushed in our country lately. So we are thinking of homeschooling or private schooling. (In other words, we'd homeschool if we couldn't afford private!! In PA homeschooling will be pretty easy for us because if I have a teaching licence, I don't have to do as much paperwork reporting to the state. Which means I need to go do my student teaching already!) And my brother was homeschooled. I guess from seeing that, I'd say take advantage of field trips, for real life learning. (learn percentages at the store, go to the zoo when you're doing biology, etc.) My brother learned a lot of real life things, that I missed being locked up in the school building with infrequent field trips.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10718507085706474315noreply@blogger.com
