Stretched to a New Dimension: March 2012

http://stretchedtoanewdimension.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html

Stretched to a New Dimension. This is a look into our family's journey of homeschooling two highly gifted children, and the challenges and rewards that we face. Tuesday, March 6, 2012. Practice makes it easy. Lately I've been watching videos from the Suzuki Association of the Americas. I'm also thinking about how to incorporate a 100 day practice challenge with them. The hardest part about this idea is deciding if there should be a reward at the end. I'm familiar with all of the work done talking...Liter...

Stretched to a New Dimension. This is a look into our family's journey of homeschooling two highly gifted children, and the challenges and rewards that we face. Saturday, August 28, 2010. The last two weeks we've been doing a literary unit with the Nuehrings. It culminates with an awards ceremony (complete with a red carpet) on Saturday. The kids spent their time learning so many literary techniques. At times it was a little overwhelming, but they all did a great job! Links to this post. Zoë has decided ...

Stretched to a New Dimension. This is a look into our family's journey of homeschooling two highly gifted children, and the challenges and rewards that we face. Friday, February 24, 2012. A Day in the Life. Recently someone on one of my. 8-9 Aiden gets up, makes breakfast (usually either a bowl of cereal or he makes muffins) and talks to me either about his dreams or the things he wants to do today. Today he's convincing me of the importance of having a work day at Panera and something about "redston...

Stretched to a New Dimension: October 2010

Stretched to a New Dimension. This is a look into our family's journey of homeschooling two highly gifted children, and the challenges and rewards that we face. Thursday, October 7, 2010. Orlando and Free Learning. Although I'm glad we went, it will not be a place that I revisit. It was by far the most expensive and exhausting "vacation" I've ever been on. With the bustle of everyday life I often forget how odd our family is, but taking a trip to Disney World was a huge reminder! Would that be so hard?

Stretched to a New Dimension: Evolution

http://stretchedtoanewdimension.blogspot.com/2012/05/evolution.html

Stretched to a New Dimension. This is a look into our family's journey of homeschooling two highly gifted children, and the challenges and rewards that we face. Friday, May 11, 2012. This week we've started studying evolution. We've begun with the history of our planet. All week the kids did research to find when each of the events on our timeline occurred. The only place we had big enough to put this timeline was the driveway. I'll be sad when it washes away! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Just Eno...

Stretched to a New Dimension. This is a look into our family's journey of homeschooling two highly gifted children, and the challenges and rewards that we face. Wednesday, June 30, 2010. It was an absolute delight to see her so excited about learning again! Since he didn't have any books from the library to read, Aiden kept to his schedule and worked on our explorers unit and a lot of math. He started his new level on Monday and is already 50% complete. My head is spinning at this point! We had a discuss...

A Time for Growth. This has been a difficult week filled with lots of lessons and possibilities for growth. Aiden has experienced disappointment, joy, consequences and rewards all in a few days. Tom says we might look back on this week as a real turning point for our family. I certainly hope he is right. Links to this post.

Stretched to a New Dimension. This is a look into our family's journey of homeschooling two highly gifted children, and the challenges and rewards that we face. Tuesday, April 13, 2010. There are curricula and state guidelines for education. I'm still looking for that parenting manual for the rest. Saturday both of the kids participated in a Tae Kwon Do tournament. They did fantastic! Aiden got first in forms. He looked very crisp and powerful. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
