So often at the end of our homeschool day I ask the question that many homeschool Mom’s ask, “Did I do enough?” Sometimes my friend and homeschool mentor will call me and ask “Did you have a good school day today?” As we sit at the dinner table my dear husband will often ask our boys “What did you learn today?”
So often I think about what we did not get done. Let me see….we did not get to our Apologia Science today. Oh dear, we did not get to our “Jump In” writing program. We did not write our vocabulary sentences today….and we did not do our copywork. Oops, we did not get to our “Daily Grams.” Yikes! I did not listen to them read aloud today!
What did we do….how did we spend our time today and did we learn anything at all? Would my boys have accomplished more if they were in a classroom?
Inspite of our schedule, my heart is full tonight. As I write, I feel as though we had a really good day, even though our list was not completed. We talked a lot today. We talked about the Founding Fathers and how they shared the Gospel and spoke of the Savior in their last Will and Testaments. We learned that most were devout Christians. We discussed what revisionist history meant. We watched a video on the founding fathers.
