Getting back into routine!

Last week was one of “those” weeks.  Anyone struggle with getting back into routine after taking a few weeks off from school?  
I felt super focused and was ready to get back into the swing of things.  The kids....not so much!
I was a mean mom and even made a few unnamed children finish on a Saturday.  Gasp!  They had no excuse for not getting their school work done during the week!

We started a few new things.  
Weston is learning the states and capitals.  Easton is reviewing them, as he learned them a few years ago.  We use an ap on my ipad, worksheets, puzzles, and many different games.

The boys took a Survival 101 class on Outschool.  It was a 3 day course (55 minutes each class).  Their teacher was from Hawaii...still lives there as well!  They LOVED the class and want to take the follow-up,  Survival 202, but it is the same time as our NASP archery class, so maybe she will offer it again another time.  

Jocelyn started an online class on Outschool.  It is different having her turn in work to another teacher for a grade.   Even though the first week was a lot of extra work, she really enjoyed it.  This class lasts 8-weeks.  She is also starting an online watercolor class tomorrow.  She can’t wait!

We love Outschool! If you want more info...I have a link to the right under my kids pics.  It is amazing what classes they offer!!

Katelyn isn’t interested in taking a class on Outschool....but I may make her...because I am mean mom like that!  :/:)

Landon.  Oh Landon.  Our little four year old.  We do school here and there.  I try to keep his attention with fun games and activities, but he would rather just play, do his ninja skills, and shoot everyone with nerf bullets!  He will learn his letters one of these days right?!  
Pictured below is a box Landon played with all week.  He painted and decorated it with stickers.  




Well we have another busy week coming up.  Life with the kiddos is non-stop!
