Where did the week go? This was a week where we accomplished all of our academics, and then some. It was a week where we were home each day and could focus on some deeper learning. It was a week where I was THANKFUL to be homeschooling my children and THANKFUL to have this chance to witness their learning each day.

Today's Collage Friday has a math emphasis (among other things). Our math times have been much more enjoyable this year, and I wanted to take a chance to share that with you.
We thought and researched very carefully about math instruction this year; resulting in a "math epiphany" of sorts.
For my children, a rigorous, no frills approach to math works best. Our spine needed to be demanding and very structured. Math is one of our "non negotialbes" (read more about a day in our homeschool) that is completed first thing each morning.

Have you ever made a change that just pleased you for several days? Well, I changed my haircut on Monday and I'm so glad I did!
It's funny how something so little can make such a HUGE difference. I've had long, curly hair for the past three years and decided it was time for a change.
Monday several inches were taken off my hair ... I'm enjoying much less time being spent on my hair and just a bouncier feeling in general.
