Even though we have been doing some schoolwork all summer (mostly reviews), today was the first official day of our 2013/2014 school year. I have found that is works out much better for us to ease back into a full schedule. So we usually start with one subject and gradually increase so that by the week after Labor Day we are back up to a full schedule. Usually I start off with morning schoolwork, but getting out in the morning and working right after lunch has been going so well for us over the summer, I decided we would start off with afternoon school work. Today the children all dove into their brand new Math U See books. Well, except for Christian and Chelsea. Chelsea started Algebra 2 in January so she is still working through it, and Christian was so excited when his books came a few weeks ago that he has already been doing a math lesson everyday.
Since today was our official start to the new year, I took pictures of each of the children in the same spot we do every year, so I can see how much they grow and change throughout the year.
