"Like effects in nature are produced by like causes, as breathing in man and beast, the fall of stones in Europe and in America, the light of the kitchen fire and of the sun, the reflection of light on the earth and on the planets."
~Isaac Newton, The Principia
Heidi,
ReplyDeleteHow do you decide what to study in what year? And since we live in the same state, I was just curious how you are assured of meeting the state standards for testing? This is my first year "officially" homeschooling (meaning I had to send "a notice of intent to home educate" to our school district this year) and I am a little unsure of how to make sure we are on a good track timewise. Anyway, your's seems so orderly and well thought out...when do you have time to that?? Time management is my biggest foe and woe!
I would be so grateful if you could shed a little light or point me to the right past post of your's! :) Thank you!
