My Music Appreciation Curriculum
I'm Speaking for LEGO® Education!

Collage Friday is here again. This is officially the 36th week of this link up, and it's my favorite time of the week.
Looking back on all of the posts I've felt blessed by the many blogging friendships and inspiration I have gained through sharing some simple photo collages.
If you haven't joined, I'd love to have you!

After last week I was TIRED. We had been going for eight solid weeks without a break.
Our curriculum this year is challenging. Couple that with teaching piano lessons part time and blogging (not to mention other volunteer commitments) and I have run myself ragged.
We have committed to activities for the kids that are worthy... things like children's chorus and baseball and co-op. It, however, was just getting to be TOO MUCH.
I gave myself permission to take a break, and that is what we did this week. LIFE IS SHORT. I don't want to live it frazzled and checking off boxes, but rather relaxed and enjoying the little moments of every day.
Friday, September 21, 2012 at 5:00AM We've completed week 8 of our homeschool year. It was another great week of Classical studies, paired with a healthy dose of Interest Led Learning as well. The kids are going strong with their studies, children's chorus, piano lessons, and baseball. We are busy, but it's a happy and productive busy. I'm so thankful for the many opportunities in our path this year.
