Well, we have received our first official Homeschool Curriculum. We will be starting our School Year on Tuesday, September 4th. We will be using the new Horizons Preschool Curriculum this year. School will be 36 weeks long. Our last week of school, barring any illness or unforeseen circumstances should be the last week of May. I am looking forward to the school year. I am excited to be able to watch Edward learning, growing, and becoming more self confident on a day to day basis, as he masters the basics in learning and beyond. I am so impressed with this curriculum, towards the end of the year Edward will be introduced to our skeletons, heart, brain & inner ears. He will be learning to tell time and beginning basic reading. He is already wanting to read, so I know this will be right up his alley. I plan to get the house cleaned at the end of August by having some maids come in and do the deep cleaning while I get our "classroom" in order, so we can start out in a nice clean, organized environment. I will be working on the first months lessons plans here shortly. This Curriculum comes with Teacher Guides and a basic lesson plan. I plan to add to it and supplement this curriculum with other learning materials and activities. Edward is now signed up for a Homeschooling Bowling League through the bowling alley. This new league (for us) will start in September and goes through April. We are hoping to be able to get into Kindermusik again this fall. Edward might take swimming lessons again this fall. We will be bumping him up possibly to the next level.

Sounds like he is going to have an awesome year of learning. You are such an awesome mom. I wish I had the patience to homeschool but I just don't have it in me.
