Homeschool Wrap Up

I had such huge hopes for this week and then Monday hit me with stomach issues. Tuesday they progressed into a fever. Wednesday the fever hit strong, and then left. Thursday I was in bed. Friday still had stomach issues, but could leave the apartment. Today, a bit better.

So, homeschool didn't happen. But,  I do want to report one thing. Matthea has started a class with Ms. Jones, a Special Ed teacher, twice a week for 45 minutes each time. We were able to get those in this week and I am so thankful.  In class they continue to work on Matthea's IEP.  I'm glad for this time because it gives Matthea a chance to be with another teacher. For me this time allows me to see if she can sit and listen, follow instructions, and communicate with another person.  It is going well and Matthea LOVES going to school. Here she is with her backpack ready to go out the door.
   
The temp just dropped to 65F and all the kids thought they needed winter coats.    
  Since this week was a strange one for me, I will post the giveaway details on Monday.  So, be on the lookout for a fun and eventful blog party celebrating that feeding tube removal!

I really hope you're feeling better soon! We all have times when homeschooling just doesn't happen. I gave my kids a week off not too long ago just because I needed a few "mental health" days myself. If Mom doesn't have herself together, no amount of effort will get the kids to learn!

I have a special needs child as well, and we use an online program for homeschooling that works so well for kids with special needs. Check it out at http://www.time4learning.com/learning-special-needs.shtml

I'm enjoying your blog; thanks for sharing! :)
