As much as I enjoy homeschooling and I do think it is beneficial for our kids, Molly has missed being around other girls and has requested to go to school. I don't blame her for seeking out a social network. We have been very lucky and have many activities where there are boys Dom and Will's ages, but not any for Molly. As such, in August, I signed her up for a once a week program geared to homeschoolers. She attends for 4.5 hours and gets lessons in art, music, science or history, and literature and has made several friends who homeschool. Here is her review, I have included the pictures the teachers send home for the day:
INQUISIMINDS
IS AWESOME!!!! By, Molly Buschelman. Date, Dec/02/19. For, Writing in school. HELLO THERE!
I'm Molly ( Surprise, surprise.). I am going to talk to you about the MOST AMAZING PLACE IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD... Inquisiminds. Yep, Inquisiminds. I LOVE that place! Every Friday, I and few other children are dropped off at 9:00 a.m for THE BEST TIMES OF OUR LIVES!!! Honestly, if you do NOT even like Inquisiminds, then, I am most terribly sorry,but you a sad sad person. Sorry, but it's true. Sadly, on some Fridays we don't have Inquisiminds ( pout, pout)like: Black Friday. Yep, sorry "Black Friday sales" lovers out there,but, Black Friday is my fiercest enemy.Sorry, but it's true (Again? yes person.).
We usually have literature first, this quarter is about a book (Well, I guess ALL quarters are about books.) called "Island of the Blue Dolphins " by Scott O' Dell. It's about a girl of twelve years of age living alone on an island for a few years because her people leave without her and she must survive all alone. Last quarter, we had a book called "Hatchet" by Gary Paulsen for literature.Thank you Mrs. Julia! Then,second, we have music. I LOVE music. Our teacher is so fun! I really love that subject.I really love it.Thank you Mr. Pious!
Third, we have lunch. Since the lunch room is not a cafeteria, we have to bring our own lunches (even if it was a cafeteria, I would still have to bring my lunch because my mom, will NOT let me spend money on lunches only I could enjoy. Thumbs up Mom!!). Fourth, we have art. Art is fun because all the time we get to be creative. Fifth, we have science. Science is really Virginia History so I'll call it Virginia History. We always talk about the Native Americans who live/lived in Virginia (you shouldn't call it ancient Virginia because was 1620 AD really that long ago?). Thank you Mrs. Cheryl!
I want to thank the teachers of Inquisiminds for those hours full of fun,education,learning,and more! THANK YOU TEACHERS OF INQUISIMINDS!!!!!!
