Working this weekend.

I'm working a lot this weekend. We took 2 snow days and I let the kids play outside, but I do think we'll have to buckle down and go back to school tomorrow, even though it kind of looks like we'll still have snow on the ground. I know, I'm horrible. I need to give some thought to what I'm going to do about math. A wonderful friend was going to share some math resources with me last Friday, but with the snow, I was afraid to venture down our driveway and out our street so we've postponed meeting until next Friday. Hopefully the weather will be clear and hopefully looking at those will help me decide what to do about math. Right now I'm thinking of using a checklist, trying to go through and see what they know and still need to know and making a how-to math notebook. Then, I'll use whatever DVDs, computer programs and math books I have to teach them the skills they are missing. We used Homeschool Math with them for several years, but then we got beyond its scope and we've kind of floundered, trying to find something we like equally as well for the higher grades. Now I really just need to find a good math skills check list.

Hey, it sounds like I might have a plan now. ;-)
