As most of you know, we participated in our first year of tutorial this year. The difference between a tutorial and a co-op is that we are able to choose which classes we'd like our children to be in. This can be tough to find for elementary aged kids. Jane took geography and science this year and made lots of new friends. She REALLY took to geography and demanded that we quiz her regularly. Her class had a Geography Bee last week, and Jane tied for 1st place. I'm telling you, she knows things that I never learned or at least didn't retain after test time. We were really proud of her. Next year she will take Geography II, Drama, Choir, and Art.
She has also been reading the Little House books and started wearing her hair in braids. Jane never wants anything done to her hair, so it's been a lot of fun to get my hands on it at last. I even bought her a bonnet at our curriculum fair last week. After church on Sunday she ran straight to the car to put it on and show her friends in the parking lot. Chris and I decided that only homeschool kids do stuff like that with no shame. Others probably think it's odd (so do we, a little bit), but hey...she's happy!
