Homeschooled children are weird

Which kid isn't a little odd? :) They might look perfectly normal for their parents... but... let's be honest... most kids have a little goofiness to them... it's refreshing!

Mine... are no exception (not at all!) and I thought I'd share with you a moment of our family's homeschooling adventures with you.

Here's hubby... with his method to teach long-short vowel sounds... I usually leave phonics to him because, ehem, being a Mexican and having a thick accent (that's what some people say... I honestly can't hear it... but hey... it's me!) it's not the best idea for me to try to teach phonics to my kids....

here we go... enjoy!

Inspired and Educational Coffee Friday!

Hello everybody! Welcome to our Coffee Friday Party! Today I am very happy to introduce to you a wonderful blogger, her name is Elizabeth Peterson, I don't really know her that well! But I love everything that has to do with education and arts! And she blogs in a very cool site, The Inspired Classroom, where teachers and parents can get inspired everyday!

I really encourage you to visit the site... Elizabeth didn't really share much about herself when she submitted the picture to be published here... I soon realized it has to be because she doesn't want to "toot her own horn" but... she's amazing! she's a 4th grade teacher and she's just so dynamic and creative... well... you can read more about her here

I will now let her share with us! Welcome to "The Coffee Shop" Elizabeth!
