Preparing to Homeschool

As of January 6th, MacKenna will be homeschool until we decide that going back to public school necessary.  It wasn't a decision that we lightly because NY state has a lot rules and regulations dealing with homeschooling.  We did involve MacKenna in the decision to do it because we didn't want her to feel like we were just making choices about her education without her.  So, for the last month I have been collecting/buying curriculum, workbooks, supplies to start this coming Monday.  Our dining room has turned into a classroom.

I have several workbooks for her to do busy work/practice work from.  I have downloaded the Common Core Curriculum as we will be following parts of it as to stay on the same that she was on for school so if/when she goes back she will have the same knowledge as her classmates.
