Why do we have to wait until after orientation to get our books? I can order the books through are school bookstore. They have a list of what we need, but we we have been instructed to wait until after oreintation. Orientation at my school is the three days before school starts. It would be nice to get a early start, but I will have to wait until after orientation.

That is cool! No I am not working at all right now , just trying to focus on school and taking a summer off( last semester I took 17 credit hours :bugeyes:) my brain is in rocovery just now! Yeah I am excited , it will be nice to "know" someone when we start~ PM me sometime and we can exchange e mails if you want!

I live right outside of Columbia. It is really Knifley. I know some other homeschool families in Burkesville. Do you know many families there? We do need to start a support thread for nursing students that homeschool. What are curriculum are you using? I am trying to get everything organized so that it will run smoothly once my school starts.

Yeah a support group would be a great idea! I do know some of the families but I have not been in the homeschool group for the last few years ...I just never had the "extra" time for the activities. My curriculum is really a mix of several things, including Rod and Staff and things I have created and I was blessed to know a retired elementary school teacher who gave me years worth of materials she had accumulated , everything from worksheets to classroom decorations and educational games~ I know about trying to get organized ...I decided to try somthing new this year , my kids are actually schooling through the summer and are going to take the last of August through October for their summer break so I can get in the groove of classes without having to create their lesson plans and all that stuff!

I am also schooling through the summer. I have used Rod and Staff before. We now use a mixture. I have all their work planned for the summer. I am going to plan from August to December in the beginning of August. It is a good idea to take off August through Oct. I didn't think of that. They work independantly most of the time. I am just hear for questions or when they get stuck in math,ect.

My daughter is fairly independent at this point as well ,just asking for help when she gets stuck but I have an 8 y.o. boy who is really struggling with reading so the majority of my time is spent with him right now~one plus though is he is great in Math and is somehow teaching himself ...he does not get it from me, as I have been focusing on phoenetics and sight words and other basic skills , he just seems to get math!

I guess during OUR Fall break ,which should fall in October , I will plan out the next six months or so for the kids so that is done in advance !
