The kids had a great day of school today as a foot of snow fell in the mountains. We've gotten into a great rhythm with homeschooling. This month the boys are working on a compare and contrast essay. Jack chose Portland/Salt Lake City, Grant is working on Maine/Utah and Hank decided Utah Jazz/Boston Celtics. Last month each of them completed a three week long research paper on the habitat in Yellowstone. The plan is that they will tackle a different style of writing each month, focusing on what they find unique to where we are. As far as math, Kahn has been a great program for the two older boys and Hank is working on a similar computer program called Math Score. We have also had the opportunity to spend a lot time on the primary elections and American political system. It all sounds so charming, right? You've caught me on a good day!

Hey guys. These classrooms don't look very much like the ones I ever taught in. The students look so well behaved and attentive. It must be the threat of no study, no food.
