Week 5 reality!

Monday was thanksgiving this meant everyone was home and the girls were here. So we did our school work early before the girls got here and that was a fight at first because dad is home and well apparently when dad is home that means he suddenly hates doing school work but we got through it. We did our outing with the girls. It was just a walk around the block collecting leaves to put in our paper bags, the poor girls didn't even make it half way around the block before they were complaining they were tired lol. We got back and started to sort the leafs, the girls had no interest and that is okay so Blaine and I did his bag, what we noticed was we have a million trees around but mostly they are a variety of maple tree lol. It was fun none the less. We had to move our thankful tree to above the table bosscos tail kept taking it off the door and ruining it, but its growing. I love seeing what he comes up with each day.

Tuesday we had our Nature Walk with St.Clair child and youth it was just a walk around the neighborhood near their college street location. We looked for things on our list and found all of them. He had a blast, I was hot.
We got all of our school work finished without a fight and even for a bunch of our learning path finished in ABC Mouse. He retains so much from learning it is crazy. We did leaf rubbing on our work sheet today and he said "just like at forest school mom" he even remember ALL of the parts of the leaf without help.



Leaf painting with a child who hates to get messy is something else lol. He did great though but only did a few and that was that. We seem to have the word "can" down pat already which is very exciting and he did his school work with no issues at all.

Because we have the homeschool trip to korny korners on Friday the homeschool chat and play had to be moved to Thursday which makes the day a tight squeeze as we normally do all of our shopping on Thursdays as well. He loves the chat and play with the homeschool kids and they mainly get along great. I have noticed a big difference between children who attend school and those who are homeschooled in their personalities and interactions with each other.

We had a blast at Korny Korners with all the homeschool kids. Even got a pumpkin. He tried putt putt
