School's Out!

We officially turned in all of our work samples and grades yesterday. I guess that means officially "school is out" for this year. Well maybe....

Everyone has had differing reactions.
The boys are saying "Great! Now we can play, play, play!"
Randi is sad, "My school was fun!"
I am excited, now I can focus on MY learning without the distractions of deadlines and paperwork!

Inspite of all the complaining and cheering, I am still pulling noses out of books, ears away from story CDs, and fielding numerous requests for science experiments, LEGO building, and robot programming. Over all I consider this year a success in introducing a love of learning. (http://www.aktjed.org/ )

Caelin is already planning his books for next year's book club.
I am well into my planning for next year.
Randi is requesting for finish EVERY lesson that we haven't finished yet.

Now that "school's out" we can focus our attention on to reading up on how to plant a garden, measuring rows, planting seeds, and watching plants grow. Oooops, that sounds like school!

Jodi,
You're awesome. Great job getting your work samples in already. My plan is to have mine in early next week. We'll see how it goes.
See you early for our walk in the morning. (Aren't you so excited to be up and out that early :)
