Who is to say if Newton would have had the time or inclination to meditate and discern solutions if he had been more social? Frankly, I am inspired and grateful that the potential and achievement of human greatness grows in a variety personalities and circumstances. There is hope for all of us. What will I share? PS Bach’s music was launched. Into outer space using Newtonian.

Our repository of home school guesses, attempts, experiences, knowledge, frustration and joy. Tuesday, April 20, 2010. I felt some trepidation when my son became old enough to start Scouts. I'd heard horror stories from lots of people, especially my little brother, about some of the terrible things they'd experienced at the hands of fellow uniformed boys. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Current innovators in every field share their ideas in 15-20 minute presentations. I can only handle about three or four in a day or my brain will get stretch marks. Here's an easy one for starters and it relates to the last post about creativity and relevance: Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity. Monday, Augu...

Unless you're Michelangelo) DO try this at home. I wasn't sure if the kids would be interested because it was our third week in a row painting. I printed off some Sistine Chapel ceiling coloring pages. Just in case. I only had one taker. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What else we're saying. Love is Easy - Simple Anniversary.

This really was about the elasticity of egg whites and the net they create for the air. We started out with a few experiments with rubber bands and water. We always get excited about tasty science and having our home school exchange friends over made it a bonafide party. Whip it and measure it and spoon it on a tray. Mixing water and dishsoap.

Shared his love for color, painting and meaningful ideas. He clearly sparked something. We happened to catch a flyer for a geological tour of our neighborhood which just so happens to be one of our subjects of study this year along with New York history, so.

Their enthusiasm inspired this post. First I gratefully acknowledge Joseph Campbell. Who laid it out so beautifully in his seminal work, "Hero With a Thousand Faces." He's not the only one in the discussion, but there is no discussion without him. And he's so quotable scroll down to see. The Hero is the protagonis...

Our repository of home school guesses, attempts, experiences, knowledge, frustration and joy. Monday, December 7, 2009. I always have big plans for contributing on this blog with pictures and explanations, but I never get to it. So, today I am going to just give a couple memorable quotes from homeschool so far this year. What's the opposite of a fish? But Mom, I want to have fun! I don't want you to have fun!
