This was in incredibly busy week for us. We had a LOT going on and I was determined not to get thrown too far off track. I had to work all week and hubby was out of town so I played "single working parent- homeschooling mom" NOT AN EASY TASK by any means! We didn't accomplish all on the agenda, but we did ok. We even managed to take our first field trip of the school year. Not too bad considering I worked a 35 hour workweek on top of everything that we had going on!

You got Rosetta Stone!! Yippee! Do they like it? Do you?
You could have listed the Zoo field trip under science as well. :)
I think I forgot to say how excited I am that you all will be doing Latin. My hope is to begin Latin next year - what resources are you using? :)
Veni Vidi Vici
We got the homeschool edition so it comes with a workbook and ideas for cultural activities- other than that I don't know yet.
Oh- and as far as if we like it or not- It is too early too tell. DD is going to have to go through it a lot more slowly than I had originally planned- she has problems with pronunciation (In English as well LOL) and she gets frustrated easily- so we will see....
I myself, like it. I have been using it along with them :)
