Time 4 Learning (Homeschool Review)

Over the next 30 days, I will be reviewing Time4Learning’s online education program. It can be used as a homeschool curriculum, an afterschool tutorial or for summer learning. My opinion will be entirely my own, so be sure to come back and read about my experience. You can write your own curriculum review, too! www.time4learning.com

Enzo’s Language Assignment

Enzo was recalling the run-in his daddy had with a flock of birds (seagulls I think) in a Target parking lot one weekend. * my phone needs a better camera

Lesson of the Day

Don’t fix what ain’t broke!

Mummy or Butterfly?

Enzo craves being snuggled, squished and rolled…some days more than others. So when he asked to be rolled up in this crazy soft blanket, it was a welcomed request on this particular morning. Yes, our day had barely started and we were more than ready to be squished. He has his pj’s on to prove [...]

As the bell rings…

So we don’t have a school bell, but our holiday slacker and vacation days are over. It’s nice to be back to our normal routine. Although I can do without our “flustered with Pre-Algebra so I flip the pages furiously” routine. This is what Lizzie does after school. She’s practicing. We should probably worry. ps. [...]

Family Life

Save the Forest!

For science today Enzo picked the sloth to learn about. The sloth is one of his favorite animals because it’s “his daddy’s” favorite. We did our usual – sit on the couch, mom reads from a book that we picked out from the library while discussing interesting facts about the animal, and of course looking [...]

The Prey

Enzo said the predator got the squirrel so we needed to help it. Then he asked if the prey can eat the predator because he was mad at the neighborhood cat (the predator) for trying to eat the squirrel. Well, we didn’t see the culprit, we’re just assuming the mean neighborhood cat did it. Enzo [...]

2nd Annual Back 2 School Bash

Remember last year when we decided to have a Back 2 School Bash for the kids?? Well it’s that time of year again, and this Ormeo Family tradition is here to stay. Just like last year, we didn’t tell the kids what we were up to or that it was even time for another Bash, [...]

Ready, Set….Almost!

The past couple of weeks have been spent getting things ready for a new school year.  Well, maybe we’ve spent more time getting the house ready for a new homeschool year since t all three kids will officially be ‘school aged’ kids! Poor Toots has carried in more boxes from the garage and attic more [...]
