celticdragonflyOkay, dear people, help me out here.
Now that Jamie is in school in the mornings, I'm Getting Serious about moving ahead with Maggie's homeschooling.
Not at a really heavy level. She is only 4. I don't want to push too hard. We're looking at oh, a half hour to an hour's worth of work each day, to start.
I need to keep records. Well, I don't really need it NOW - but I will need it in the future. And I suck at this sort of thing, so I better try hard to establish habits now. I want to get a folder (Hey, Karl, bring me a few folders tonight, please) and put the sheets we write on in it and have a slot in the filing cabinet for them. Maybe by month?
And I want to create a secondary livejournal account, that I will note what we do in it. Just little entries. I suck at keeping records, but you know, I'm not bad at writing up lots of LJ stuff.
I'm trying to think what to call the LJ account. GallagherHomeschool is too long. Miles suggested Gallagher_HS, but that sounds like Gallagher High School, and that's a long way away.
Suggestions, please?
I will friends-lock everything, just because I don't think this should be public, but if you're on my flist and interested in following her progress, let me know.
Also, I clearly need a good homeschooling icon. Also accepting suggestions.
