On Tuesday our co-op had their first field trip of the school year to the Augusta Canal Discovery center. It was so much fun and budget friendly. We had a guided boat tour on a replica Petersburg boat, puppet show, & scavenger hunt in the museum!

That evening, we stopped by Chick-Fil-A for the touch a truck event.

I was going to post about how my kids are living what I would consider rich as a child. My grandfather grew up in a house his daddy built with an outhouse, "warsh" tub on the back porch, and a stick with baking soda to brush his teeth. I grew up in a trailer with holes in the floor, no central heating or AC, and no hot water a lot of the time. But then I unexpectedly came across his watch tonight and I just can't put into words how blessed we are and how proud he would be if he were here.

📚🌎 September week 2 co-op 🌎📚

I had the pleasure of teaching a lesson about geography. We read "Me on the Map" and completed a craft to learn about our planet, continent, country, state, and home. The kiddos took home a handwriting practice worksheet and continent identification worksheet.

My homeschool co-op had its first official meet on 9/11. I'm not going to lie, I was a little nervous taking on this venture by myself. Once I stood in front of the kids to read a story, I knew I was doing the right thing. All the skills from teaching public school came back in an instant and I felt at home again.

We are focusing on social studies for the month of September so I decided to teach a lesson about American symbols with a story, puppet craft, & name game.

I know there will be bumps in the road as I continue to take on this adventure, but I am just so thankful for the families that are trusting me with their babies. The co-op couldn't exist without them.

Hooray for year 2!
