Re: Get it Together Thursday

I keep reminding myself that "Getting it Together" is a journey, not a destination. I am so very thankful for this group to travel with on this journey.
Homeschool has not had a smooth start. We have stopped, adjusted and restarted SIX times this morning. Hopefully, the rest of the day will go smoothly.
One of DS10 daily reading assignments is "Select & read a newspaper article and verbally summarize". The purpose of this assignment is obviously reading with the added benefit for him to scan the headlines which helps keep him aware of events. It also has another purpose as it gets him used to neatly opening/folding a newspaper. What DS10 doesn't know is that he is on the front page of the newspaper today. I am waiting for him to pick up the newspaper and see his picture.
Today's activities -
** Homeschool
** 1:30 DS10 to STEM class
** Return library books and check out new ones for the week
** 3:45 DGD7 from school
