NOTICE ON PICS - All pics on this blog (unless otherwise stated) are my personal work. DO NOT take pics from this blog without seeking my permission first! Bless you.

Welcome to my blog. It is updated weekly with pictures and projects from our homeschool - maybe you can find something to inspire you :) I have a (no longer updated) materials page elsewhere on my website and will, occasionally, post my homemade materials in this blog.

I'm married to Tim (delivery driver and gorgeous musician), have 2 daughters, live on the south coast of the UK and have 1 aging cat (Hemmingway or Hemmy for short). I love reading, yoga, crafts, baking, daft old comedies, music and teaching.

On this page you can find my homeschool blog, if you want to read my general, day-to-day blog, click the link below :)

NOTE ON PICTURES: This shouldn't be necessary but I have, sadly, noticed growing cases. Please DO NOT link directly to pictures on this website - it steals my bandwidth and is BAD! I CAN trace you if you do and I will take action.

Today

.. just a few pictures - certainly not everything we did today though!

Looked after the garden birds by putting food out for them

built words with the printed alphabet

drew shape pictures by tracing the inset frames

did some reading analysis

Rosie also did her daily maths lesson on Conquer Maths - we really are so pleased we invested in this as she is doing fabulously well. Just as she used to do brilliantly with the Montessori materials (after being presented a lesson), now she is doing briliiant working on Conquer maths. Both of the methods rely on independent work and, clearly, she thrives on that.
