First Day of School 2016-2017

We are ready to start a new school year.  The classroom is all set up.  The supplies are laid out.  The curriculum is ready to go. The kids are excited.  We are going into year 2 of homeschooling with a 1st grader, a 3rd grader, and two little girls who love to play.  I am excited to see how the kids grow and learn this year.  Here are a few pics of the kids on their first day.

 The time has flown by!  This guy has finished kindergarten!!! He has worked hard and become a good reader, mathmatician, and has developed great penmenship.

 2nd Grade was great with this guy!  His excitement and love of learning made teaching him so much fun!  He worked hard on grammar, spelling, and multiplication. He has even begun dabbling in cursive.

 My sweet 6 year old!

My awesome 8 year old!

 Nothing better than sharing a class with your best buddy!

 The boys have had a great year!  They are excited to start 1st and 3rd in the fall!

 One last morning in the classroom.  It will soon be transformed back into the play room!

 We did a lot of growing and changing this year as we figured out this "home school" thing.  I feel so blessed to have been able to be their teacher!

These little munchkins have been with us through it all.  Chaos and cuteness all rolled together ;)
