What I Like About Homeschooling

I like homeschooling because it's fun and I learn more. I get to have more break time. I like getting to play outside for a longer time. My favorite workbook would probably be Explode the Code or Singapore Math. It's fun, there's sentence-writing on the last page of every lesson, and I think I'm on lesson eight of Explode the Code 5 1/2. I like Singapore Math because on one of them there was robots and spaceships.



What I sometimes do on my break is take Minnie for a walk. Usually I take her up to the park fire hydrant.



I also like playing games a lot. I like playing Monopoly and Candyland. Mitchell especially likes Moose in the House. Sometimes we play Blokus at bedtime.



Sometimes when we get all of our school done if there's extra time we'll play outside. When we go sledding, some loaders came and dumped a lot of snow by the park so it makes the park hill even bigger. The teens made a couple courses and I like going down the one without the jump. We haven't gone down the jump yet. Mitchell wants to but I think he's a little scared. HE says he really wants to but I don't think that's a hundred percent true. I also especially like going down the slide into a big pile of snow.



Sometimes on break I will go down and do Legos. And if I get tired of doing that I will read out of a Judy Moody book.



I especially like when Mommy reads Narnia at nighttime for a bedtime story. We finished Little House on the Banks of Plum Creek on Monday, February 2.



In the summer on break time sometimes I will go biking up to the park fire hydrant and back. My record is seven times and I'm gonna try to get to ten. I also like going to New Ulm near the Fourth of July because last year Uncle Danny and Uncle Brian got us some party poppers, sparklers, and Black Cats.



I also like building snow forts when we play outside.



I like going to Mommy's music classes and doing tonal patterns and playing with the ball pit balls and parachute. Since our co-op hasn't started yet, I take going to Mommy's music class as a field trip. This co-op time we are going to be studying about different countries from around the world.



Sometimes on my break time in summer, if I'm lucky I'll catch a dragonfly.
