Homeschool Co-op

We have joined a homeschool co-op called blue oak, and our first day was great! We loved the building, the people, the teachers and classes. This semester Jax is taking a class on Letters and PE. Linden is taking Art and American Sign Language. Kaelynn and Daniel are taking Speech and Debate. To supplement curriculum we are doing an outdoor unit studying mushrooms. Kaelynn and Daniel are also taking courses on Khan Academy for math, reading/vocabulary and science. We are very excited for this new school year and being on our own schedule and agenda!

My kids had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. We got to see sea turtles and their nest that were taped off. It started a nice discussion of sea turtle nest and how they are protected. Linden thought it was fascinating that the baby sea turtles use the light of the moon to find the sea! It is pretty cool!

Then went home and completed the bear workbook we got from the presentation. I thought the whole thing was so interesting!
