Update on our Family

2009-09-24T10:04:00.006-04:00

Just a quick update on our family.
Tyler-13, is at Keystone Heights High School in the 7th grade. He is in Pre-Algebra and other advanced classes and is doing very well. Tyler is running Cross Country again and achieved a personal best last week of 22:16 for a 5K run. He runs 6-9miles every day. I am amazed. He is doing great.
Brandon - 11, is homeschooled and is doing Pre-Algebra online and doing very well (except for a few stubborn moments). Other classes are going well. Brandon was elected Chaplain of our homeschool group. He is one of the top players on his football team and the coaches say that he is the hardest worker on his team. They have won one game and lost two..
Caleb - 8(will be 9 on October 6th.), is also homeschooled and doing very well. Caleb was elected Treasurer of our homeschool group. He is enjoying playing football. They have two wins and one tie.
Allison - 4, is in preschool and loves her teacher and has lots of friends. She is learning beginning sounds of words.
Savannah - 2, stays home with mommy and is still mommy's little girl.
Everyone is involved in Awana's and choir at church.
Mommy is as busy as ever.
Daddy is working hard everyday and he is about to open a new store in Jacksonville.

Hey parents and kids. Check out the new links to Edheads (this is really cool - virtual surgeries) and Think Quest. Brandon uses this in school and has an email pen pal ( I guess that would be an e-pal. ) Anyway, hope you enjoy these.

In case you are wondering why I have assignments on my blog, I am taking a class called Educational Technology. I am suppose to create a website that has a teaching page on it. I still new to all of this web site / blogging stuff, but I will eventually figure it out. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Parents and homeschooler's, here's a great activity for children who love to read. Grab your favorite Magic Treehouse book. Go to edhelper.com and go to the literature section and find the title of the book you chose. This site gives you book reports, worksheets, puzzles and much more.
There is a membership fee. I think $20 per year, but it is worth it. There are worksheets for every subject and every age available on this site.
