School's out for the next 84 days. What do I do? I have decided I want each day to start with chores and a little school work. Where do I find school work? Any suggestions? I have no idea!
I also decided that by doing chores and homework the kids can earn points towards things like a trip to Lagoon or the zoo (thanks Tam). Sound good? So I know I can come up with chores, but I need help with curriculum!

I went to the alphabet station on state in Orem and bought a work book for each of my kids. They have books from pre~K to jr high then they do a page each morning and read a chapter to me. very easy for them and it makes me feel they are not losing everything they learned at school.
There are some fun math sites too... Since a lot of what my kids forget is math, we're planning on using them. The one that looked the best was www.coolmath4kids.com. It even has a section for ages 3-5, and for older kids, pre-algebra lessons. So much funner than filling out worksheets! :)
Hey Carlie-
I did a post on 30days with all kinds of ideas. Check it out.
We get out next week and I'm freaking out!!!
Workbooks work!! I've used them for years and I let my kids go at their own pace, but offer a reward when it is completed. Emma's already doing several pages a day to finish and Haili is working towards a Jamba juice when her's is done.
