I love that high school is so much more independent, especially when they are taking a few Dual Enrollment classes at our local community college. My teens are learning adult soft skills as they manage their time using checklists I and their professors give them.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">That said, I am more of a manager than a teacher at this stage. I have to be so much more intentional about meeting with them and staying involved.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEierOHjnJAl6h3AQgpyjHSHrAe2NjM3gtdLWnguN7bQATbv7jgBkhc8gL60v_4no-u4kYwrhRBwQPLn72MFPbOkB0AdJ1BhyyaPyNFx6CBWUcKUDrNderLoRYNHRt3Xa9KWt5JGsst61_MhhorR-VscBETuMnSiJNqEqO3N3gfMJYlWCyCsSvI8lNKxXgI/s960/406508980_1068768954084758_8964258659208272747_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEierOHjnJAl6h3AQgpyjHSHrAe2NjM3gtdLWnguN7bQATbv7jgBkhc8gL60v_4no-u4kYwrhRBwQPLn72MFPbOkB0AdJ1BhyyaPyNFx6CBWUcKUDrNderLoRYNHRt3Xa9KWt5JGsst61_MhhorR-VscBETuMnSiJNqEqO3N3gfMJYlWCyCsSvI8lNKxXgI/s320/406508980_1068768954084758_8964258659208272747_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">We have instituted a weekly meeting with mom. It was through our weekly meeting that I realized in high school homeschool I've gone from being their day to day teacher to essentially their manager.<b> A good manager checks in often to monitor quality of work and maintain good relationships</b>. A good manager doesn't do the work for you, but they give you tools and encouragement to do your work well.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">This meeting is to make space for them to learn how to discuss and summarize what they are studying. I have caught items they forgot to do or didn't schedule correctly. I encourage them to look ahead and start planning for the next thing.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiexaHt1CFydTGWAR0jjdfw45NP2lCi6D2RcAZcFhxZQsUYVokVPamPNjcwosRcRjYZMTrouFyGSuMHhfOePXo8ZF8yzeJFjOl-bWc_8XFvSN9TtZ-6mB8WKrd-q9EEmfygrVmvCUEPhoaW2h-OlTIZ_AsSxlDD9ffd73sknpDeBXj7uBov_zt9BwZuH0I/s960/406399370_1068768900751430_6520535380426172914_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="957" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiexaHt1CFydTGWAR0jjdfw45NP2lCi6D2RcAZcFhxZQsUYVokVPamPNjcwosRcRjYZMTrouFyGSuMHhfOePXo8ZF8yzeJFjOl-bWc_8XFvSN9TtZ-6mB8WKrd-q9EEmfygrVmvCUEPhoaW2h-OlTIZ_AsSxlDD9ffd73sknpDeBXj7uBov_zt9BwZuH0I/s320/406399370_1068768900751430_6520535380426172914_n.jpg" width="319" /></a></span></div><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The transition of homeschooling high schoolers is a hard one at times. The first few years of high school were actually a little heartbreaking. I miss the snuggling on the couch and reading picture books together. I miss being THE teacher they came to with questions. I had to mourn that stage of homeschooling before I could move on. But they grow up, and this is the natural next step. Now, they teach ME about what they are studying. We have even deeper discussions about history and the Bible. They are also taking math class that is way beyond what I took in high school.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">My job isn't to help with the content but the context. How do they communicate with their professor? How are they feeling about the workload and dealing with the stress?</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">It is ok and even healthy to mourn what was, but now I am thankful and prayerful of how to be a good manager of my homeschooling high schoolers.</span></p>Robyn http://www.blogger.com/profile/06524839070322558069noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136354382922279761.post-3294058163811013952023-09-25T12:21:00.006-07:002023-10-04T11:44:21.761-07:00Financial Reality Check: Personal Finance and Budgeting Workbook for Beginners/Teens<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><p style="text-align: center;"><span><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><span style="font-size: medium;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><span style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3EOyFL8"><img border="0" data-original-height="3340" data-original-width="2569" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0f0JxI_Eup1hfDAyqO32lV6LHpvdHo_nJ1VAPeADKT5axq3Q_Qc87kE63erDJIiGEPOls7pWFkCE9Gk79Fd8pxDL0PwzEUTuagHCQwbjxLkSojungxet99PrWrzmsgjykrwkjSETHmDBhUwSTb_6iE87dQFqWskLkb53PdMjXHwdpzO-nqQVuP6hSUo0/s320/greencovericonsjustcover.jpg" width="246" /></a></span></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://amzn.to/3EOyFL8"><span>Financial Reality Check:<br />Personal Finance and Budgeting Work for Beginners/Teens</span></a></td></tr></tbody></table><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></span><p><span style="font-size: medium;"> <i><a href="https://amzn.to/3PP8L03"><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US&l=li3&o=1&a=B0CJ2ZVJFS" style="border: none; margin: 0px;" width="1" />Financial Reality Check</a></i> is the practical personal finance book I wanted for my own sons and couldn't find, so I created it!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">This finance curriculum gives junior and senior high school students the opportunity to experience some of the financial challenges they will face with independent living.

Do not get this curriculum if your children are not readers!!! For my bookworms is was absolutely perfect! We covered all the classics that I would want them to read, but the writing program fell short to meet our needs.</i></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><i><br /></i></span></p><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"> We used My Father's World from K-9th grade. I would still usually recommend MFW for K-8th if you have multiple children, but their <a href="https://www.leadingthemtotherock.com/2022/03/mfw-9th-grade-ancient-history-and.html">high school curriculum</a> was not working for our family. </span><span style="font-size: medium;">We were able to<a href="https://www.leadingthemtotherock.com/2022/08/high-school-curriculum-tenth-grade.html"> switch to Sonlight for 10th grade.</a> </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Even though my twins are 10th graders, we still had to complete a year of American History so we did Sonlight American History 120 alongside the 230 Classical literature. (We will be skipping Sonlight 220 Church History)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">We will be revisiting American Literature again in 430 so I am ok skipping it and focusing on some of my favorite pieces of literature, like Dickens, Shakespeare, and Austen. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiikGcQi5OQgEdJ87cq061aV7OpBB_7DtmD7XOqQoE6-4Mz1fa51Ns6b5Zwb7HYgIcUFdw4QHxZBbJ94EAoQuSTB5T_LfUIJGUtl1-rl8-W38IkTN294hn_N_dcd8hCU-aVSmeh3PlSK2NACZ-PVJgL2CiRGqU66r37ZsFjtLCl2taiVgAJdSq_aNP/s418/Mix-Match-10thgrade.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="267" data-original-width="418" height="252" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiikGcQi5OQgEdJ87cq061aV7OpBB_7DtmD7XOqQoE6-4Mz1fa51Ns6b5Zwb7HYgIcUFdw4QHxZBbJ94EAoQuSTB5T_LfUIJGUtl1-rl8-W38IkTN294hn_N_dcd8hCU-aVSmeh3PlSK2NACZ-PVJgL2CiRGqU66r37ZsFjtLCl2taiVgAJdSq_aNP/w396-h252/Mix-Match-10thgrade.jpg" width="396" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;"><b>PRO- LITERATURE</b></span></p><p><b><span style="font-size: large;">1. Great choice of entry level classic literature.</span></b></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The choices of classic literature were just right for this age. Hugely popular books, but also easy to access for a 10th grader. As a fan of classic literature, I was thankful they chose to introduce them to my favorite authors through books that the child might already have a small frame of reference for, like Jane Austen through the her most humorous book <i>Pride and Prejudice. </i></span><i style="font-size: large;"> </i><span style="font-size: medium;">As they read a few chapters we would slowly watch an episode of</span><span><i style="font-size: x-large;"> </i><span style="font-size: medium;">BBC 1995 Pride and Prejudice Mini-Series for them to understand the humor a little better. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span>Sonlight introduces Charles Dickens through </span><i>Christmas Carol </i><span>a</span><span>nd Shakespeare through </span><i>Romeo and Juliet. </i><span>And </span><span>yes of course this 90s loving girls did watch the 1996 Romeo and Juliet with her kids that week!</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><b><span style="font-size: large;">2. In depth reading comprehension questions</span></b></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I am really thankful for the discussion questions in the student guides so we can talk about what they are reading in a more meaningful way. In My Father's World I was suppose to meet with them and just ask them about what stood out to them, but Sonlight really engages the student and parent daily to discuss what is being read. The parent guide is helpful because it also provides answers. While I am looking forward to discussing some of the my favorites, I haven't ALL the books on the syllabus and need those answers!</span></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: red; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;"><b>CON- WRITING PROGRAM</b></span></p><p><b><span style="font-size: large;">1. Lack of step by step instructions in writing </span></b></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">There is so much presumption on prior learning about formatting. We know how to format paragraphs and they learned how to write a 5 paragraph essay last year, but the jump to this longer research paper seems very lacking on practically outlining and formatting instructions. I literally had to buy a teaching guide from Teacher Pay Teachers on beginning research papers to help us. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">At one point they are to 'write a bibliography" with no instructions on how to do that. They tell them how to find good research sources, but no MLA or APA formatting is given. The length is suggested of 12-20 pages, but no real outline of formatting is given, other than telling them to make a "working outline" in just a few paragraphs. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Another example of lack of step by step instruction is in Wek 11 you are to write a character study on <i>The Outlaws of Sherwood.</i> It just says "write a character study" with no explanation of what an actually character study was. We had to supplement with <a href="https://grammar.yourdictionary.com/grammar/writing/how-to-write-a-character-analysis.html ">other sources </a>to help us understand some of the writing structures asked for in Creative Expressions </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I asked in several Sonlight groups to see if I was missing something and the resounding answer was that Sonlight High School does lack on those specific step by step instructions. </span><span style="font-size: medium;">Eventually we dropped the research paper all together because my sons will be taking a Dual Enrollment Class this summer that covers a research paper. </span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></p><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><b><span style="font-size: large;">2. No grading rubrics for writing</span></b></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">This is similar to the lack of step by step instructions. This curriculum assumes the teachers has prior knowledge of grammar, formatting, and writing skills. English is my strength, but I would never recommend this as the sole writing curriculum for many of my friends. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><b><span style="font-size: large;">3. Overlapping next book before done processing or writing from last book </span></b></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">In Week 9 and 10 we skipped <i>The Shining Company</i> because the boys were suppose to write a compare/contract essay about <i>Jane Eyre, </i>the book the had just read. I skipped MANY creative expressions, but I didn't want to skip this one. Unless the essays was expected to be written in one day, it didn't make sense to end Jane Eyre on Monday and start a new book on Tuesday. I wanted them to sit in the book they were writing about before moving on. I let them have a full week to write their paper, turn in drafts, and work on revisions. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800180; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;"><b>TWEAKS FOR NEXT YEAR</b></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800180; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;"><b><br /></b></span></p><p><b><span style="font-size: large;">1. Adding a different writing curriculum</span></b></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I will still use Sonlight Literature next year, but we will be skipping the majority, if not all of Creative Expressions. I have found great step by step writing curriculum, with grading rubrics, from <a href="https://www.7sistershomeschool.com/">7sisterhomeschool</a>. A friend recommend them and I love their price and selection. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I bought their <a href="https://www.7sistershomeschool.com/product/advanced-guide-to-high-school-writing/">High School Writing Bundle 3: Advanced Guide to High School Writing </a> <span>for only $35, to go alongside our literature study. I have opened up the PDF and I am truly excited about the easy instructions for my kids and grading rubrics for me. I will write a full review of them next year after we use them for a longer period of time</span></span><span style="font-size: large;">.</span></p><div><br /></div><p><b><span style="font-size: large;">2. Adding a Book Basket for more diverse perspectives and more historical fiction/non fiction</span></b></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Sonlight provides so many great books for high school, but I did miss having good quality books for their non-school hours. Both of my boys read ALL day when they are done with school, so they filled our book basket with fantasy novels from the library. There is nothing wrong with this, but I want to go back to MFW roots of ALSO filling the basket with picture and fiction and non fiction books that relate to the time period we are studying. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">This will also give me an opportunity to add non European focused fiction and non fiction to our reading. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><b><span style="font-size: large;">3. Friday Meeting with Mom, instead of daily</span></b></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The one downside to ALL the daily discussion questions if we didn't always meet EVERY day and sometimes I fell behind for several weeks. It was a very big switch to go from almost completely independent My Father's World to daily meetings with Sonlight. I also began a part time job outside the house this year so it became almost impossible for me to meet with hem daily. I plan to schedule a more doable week-end meeting, similar to MFW, but use the Sonlight parent guide to talk about the reading more in depth.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Learning-Cursive-Narnia-Handwriting-Practice/dp/1072561085?qid=1685034805&refinements=p_27%3ARobyn+Joyner&s=books&sr=1-1&text=Robyn+Joyner&linkCode=li3&tag=leadingthemto-20&linkId=e6a3f3572a1ec820ae33b1d023503dad&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_il" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="294" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?_encoding=UTF8&ASIN=1072561085&Format=_SL250_&ID=AsinImage&MarketPlace=US&ServiceVersion=20070822&WS=1&tag=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US" width="227" /></a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US&l=li3&o=1&a=1072561085" style="border: none; margin: 0px;" width="1" /></div>Robyn http://www.blogger.com/profile/06524839070322558069noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136354382922279761.post-79822688661497285442023-05-19T10:27:00.005-07:002023-05-19T10:27:41.291-07:00Peace-Faking is not Peace-Making<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFRcaOi3imWqRPKjGl6L1dGacZxInlU4x1IqRHHFIGzq3K4gng_3W3j3L6KHO4Y-haQWKtlLQ4pvlx_5jYDHYhSr791v_ZZmfJz68ZRrVLIFK-LVCpXr5awR4vF2XbOJEP9HqKO_D0EB-VPpuQXsLe9g93mbqrefOcYXITSGfiT0k1K6rMBU1yFntR/s800/New%20image%20(1).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="800" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFRcaOi3imWqRPKjGl6L1dGacZxInlU4x1IqRHHFIGzq3K4gng_3W3j3L6KHO4Y-haQWKtlLQ4pvlx_5jYDHYhSr791v_ZZmfJz68ZRrVLIFK-LVCpXr5awR4vF2XbOJEP9HqKO_D0EB-VPpuQXsLe9g93mbqrefOcYXITSGfiT0k1K6rMBU1yFntR/s320/New%20image%20(1).jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: medium;"> I used to say I was the opposite of a conflict avoider. If there was something wrong between us, I would always talk to you about it. As I’ve gotten older I’ve realized that isn't really a good way to describe me. It seems that the opposite of a conflict avoider would be someone who seeks out and enjoys conflict. Some people revel in debate and confrontation. That is 100% not me. </span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I don’t enjoy the mess and hard work of clarification to fix a miscommunication. It grieves my heart to confront and then someone has to suffer the consequences of their own actions. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">But I do love genuine peace. Conflict avoiding is not real peace-making, it is peace-faking. I hate the pain and bitterness of peace-faking more the pain and mess of peace-making. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">If I confront you with something that hurt me, then take it as a compliment. I either care about our relationship enough to fight for it, and/or I believe you are healthy enough to have a dialogue. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">If I seek to clarify a miscommunication it is because I have given you the benefit of the doubt that you didn’t mean it the way it came across. It also means I believe you will give me the benefit of the doubt when I am vulnerable about my confusion.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"> I used to confront an clarify with EVERYONE, because I didn’t want to be in conflict with ANYONE. I can thank my people-pleasing tendencies for that and I’ve learned that isn’t a safe space to be either. I have to discern what relationships are worth fighting for and who is safe enough to be vulnerable with my hurt or confusion.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">When I stop feeling the safety to confront and need to clarify, the relationship is probably about to die. Recently I was reminded that when I stop clarifying or confronting, it does the opposite of keeping the peace, it make my heart bitter and slowly the relationship dies.</span></p><div><br /></div>Robyn http://www.blogger.com/profile/06524839070322558069noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136354382922279761.post-54399573713833030702023-04-28T10:06:00.006-07:002023-04-28T10:06:42.266-07:00Beautiful Vitiligo <p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiE7zpdb2I3726y2W19oOKtTmyw6MNtZ7DyXYzTUCCWd_HlYkJ-1Hq9JwEFs_5tB3pqXUCzei_MQpjsVw77_R45ZbBDF75peQ3UnotugDIGIUwRK_bdMznZSe0QOR-DbTrePHMLMsYJPtZRbZD-Wsg6_575WHKMxbp1ACbt0U6yHN3w5-XLbgxyPJhR/s1080/303142137_10160269904268770_5073188087299676368_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="466" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiE7zpdb2I3726y2W19oOKtTmyw6MNtZ7DyXYzTUCCWd_HlYkJ-1Hq9JwEFs_5tB3pqXUCzei_MQpjsVw77_R45ZbBDF75peQ3UnotugDIGIUwRK_bdMznZSe0QOR-DbTrePHMLMsYJPtZRbZD-Wsg6_575WHKMxbp1ACbt0U6yHN3w5-XLbgxyPJhR/w466-h466/303142137_10160269904268770_5073188087299676368_n.jpg" width="466" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Both my twins have Vitiligo, but only one has it in visible spots. He loves his skin. We have had people ask/give suggestion how to "cure" it (there is no "cure" and it doesn't hurt him) but we've also had perfect strangers tell him how beautiful it is. He chooses to love it, and I am slightly envious of my 15 year old's confidence.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Growing up in the 90s spray tan/tanning salon era I was always deeply insecure about my very pale skin, especially since I wasn't the skinny girl. Porcelain skin in the 90s, and sometimes still, was beautiful only on the thin.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I had a cheerleading coach tell me to go tanning anytime we had to wear our white uniforms because "Tan fat looks better than white fat!" Even though I knew this was an awful thing to say to a teen, it has always stuck with me.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I thought I made peace with the fact that I'm never ever ever going to be tan, even embraced my pale skin for a long time, but sometimes those old insecurities can come bite you when you least expect it. This summer I suddenly became I insecure about my paleness again. I'm good and working through it (this is not a solicitation for compliments on my skin tone!!) but just know words matter, especially to teenagers. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I saw Isaac light up when a stranger complimented his vitiligo. Teens hear what we say and can make it part of their identity. I was so scared it would make him insecure like I am, but we choose to see it as beautiful and unique, so he does too.</span></p>Robyn http://www.blogger.com/profile/06524839070322558069noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136354382922279761.post-66052953191673491602023-04-04T17:36:00.001-07:002023-04-04T17:36:43.263-07:00Repeating Christian Choruses<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1MnegyRqPbTw-cMBcdGqyehyEUITSkDtAFo2-LTP5hbFZ_Qz-5a0WMA7FughUyamJSlImmPC2oPhwaoMZI5QaJQGLlB3mblF5cOmfrlFsQLNvDap5Dr8UoclFD5Zf7hR0VZ5OS1ZTvhSMOtmsd3lz_qSj03mclwBsN1zmRWeHjoDCutrzHoj25ZV9/s800/New%20image.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="800" height="414" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1MnegyRqPbTw-cMBcdGqyehyEUITSkDtAFo2-LTP5hbFZ_Qz-5a0WMA7FughUyamJSlImmPC2oPhwaoMZI5QaJQGLlB3mblF5cOmfrlFsQLNvDap5Dr8UoclFD5Zf7hR0VZ5OS1ZTvhSMOtmsd3lz_qSj03mclwBsN1zmRWeHjoDCutrzHoj25ZV9/w414-h414/New%20image.jpg" width="414" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Christians who make fun of repeating choruses on worship songs, this scene from <i>Good Will Hunting </i>is why you need to STOP. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="379" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GtkST5-ZFHw" width="455" youtube-src-id="GtkST5-ZFHw"></iframe></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Ten times Robin William's character has to tell this broken young man it wasn't his fault that he was repeatedly abused.

Hard skills are specific abilities, or capabilities, that an individual can possess and demonstrate in a measured way.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Soft skills are non-technical skills that are how you work and interact with others. Unlike hard skills, they are not necessarily something you'll learn in a course, like literary analysis or coding. Instead, they reflect your communication style, work ethic, and work style.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">My 15-year-old son loves Tinker CAD, which is the younger version of CAD (Computer Aided Design). He wants to go into a job that includes this type of design. He is learning the hard skills of CAD that will most likely be useless in his future employment. I value this learning time highly, and yet he is grounded from it for two weeks. Let me explain:</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">He turned in an English paper that was almost unreadable, I would even call it lazy writing. Before you say lazy is an objective word, remember that I know what he is capable of in regard to writing. He has had three weeks to complete the paper or ask questions about anything confused him. I have years of evidence what his writing work looks like when he makes it priority. It is the laziest writing he has ever turned in, written in an hour. This wasn't an instruction problem; it was a problem work ethic and work style. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">After initial frustrations, I wasn't sure how to give him a consequence other than just a bad grade. Upon further investigation I discovered he was rushing through writing to get to Tinker CAD. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I know my son will most likely use the hard skills he learns in CAD is his future career more than hard skills of writing research papers, BUT time management is a skill he will need in his future. The soft skills of work ethic will keep in in good graces of his future employer. Learning to communicate that you might need extra support when an assignment is confusing and putting his best effort even into something he doesn't value are skills we must all learn to be successful in life.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Soft skills are just as important, sometimes more important, than the hard skills we are teaching through homeschool assignments. We have done a disservice to our children when we only focus on hard skills they enjoy at the expense of the soft skills of work ethic, communication, and problem-solving.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Homeschool teachers, don't get so focused on teaching hard skills that we forget the soft skills our kids are learning, or not learning.</span></p><div><br /></div><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p>

The problem with that thinking is as parents we never really do handoff responsibility for our children’s education, we just hand off control.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Parents are ultimately always responsible for our children's education no matter what educational choice they make. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">This fact is why I tell parents that a student can do well in public school, private school, or homeschool as long as the parent is advocating and involved. There will always be educational gaps and bad experiences with curriculum or teachers, but an involved parent helps the child navigate the situation and learn skills from the hardship.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I have seen public AND homeschool moms do this well. You don't necessarily have to homeschool to gain the control back over your children's education, but you do need to get involved. Ask questions. Establish line of communication with their teacher. Keep in the process. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I also see public AND homeschool moms do this poorly. Homeschool moms, you can't outsource the end result to a screen or software. You can use these as the wonderful tools they are, but you still have to be checked in to where your child is and what they are struggling with. We help find tutors and resources instead of blaming the curriculum or excusing bad habits.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">If you want to homeschool but don't want the responsibility, too late. Having children makes you responsible. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">This is a great responsibility that I do not take lightly.</span></p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Financial-Reality-Check-Budgeting-Beginners/dp/B0CJ2ZVJFS?crid=107EX7P2S5TZL&keywords=robyn+joyner&qid=1696965638&sprefix=robyn+joyner%2Caps%2C159&sr=8-1&linkCode=li3&tag=leadingthemto-20&linkId=a85dad579f93a0014f839b565a73169a&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_il" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="271" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?_encoding=UTF8&ASIN=B0CJ2ZVJFS&Format=_SL250_&ID=AsinImage&MarketPlace=US&ServiceVersion=20070822&WS=1&tag=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US" width="209" /></a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US&l=li3&o=1&a=B0CJ2ZVJFS" style="border: none; margin: 0px;" width="1" /></span></p><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Writing-Wardrobe-Print-Handwriting-Workbook/dp/B084Z3W55L?pd_rd_w=JOHRQ&content-id=amzn1.sym.7f0cf323-50c6-49e3-b3f9-63546bb79c92&pf_rd_p=7f0cf323-50c6-49e3-b3f9-63546bb79c92&pf_rd_r=NP2HS3AVSWTQ0TH3J7KX&pd_rd_wg=rzSFE&pd_rd_r=3378e18f-ec73-4f91-8bb2-934efb1bfec8&pd_rd_i=B084Z3W55L&psc=1&linkCode=li3&tag=leadingthemto-20&linkId=9c2acce40fd95197cf19adbae397f414&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_il" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="271" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?_encoding=UTF8&ASIN=B084Z3W55L&Format=_SL250_&ID=AsinImage&MarketPlace=US&ServiceVersion=20070822&WS=1&tag=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US" width="210" /></a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US&l=li3&o=1&a=B084Z3W55L" style="border: none; margin: 0px;" width="1" /></div><div><br /></div><div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Learning-Cursive-Narnia-Handwriting-Practice/dp/1072561085?pd_rd_w=NkNwz&content-id=amzn1.sym.7f0cf323-50c6-49e3-b3f9-63546bb79c92&pf_rd_p=7f0cf323-50c6-49e3-b3f9-63546bb79c92&pf_rd_r=EGZS0V94ST72QJNKG72N&pd_rd_wg=A48Sp&pd_rd_r=f5b13309-7530-4b55-a337-7fb0490a1e77&pd_rd_i=1072561085&psc=1&linkCode=li3&tag=leadingthemto-20&linkId=66736712f0117f385814afb132ad4f54&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_il" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="284" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?_encoding=UTF8&ASIN=1072561085&Format=_SL250_&ID=AsinImage&MarketPlace=US&ServiceVersion=20070822&WS=1&tag=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US" width="219" /></a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US&l=li3&o=1&a=1072561085" style="border: none; margin: 0px;" width="1" /></div>Robyn http://www.blogger.com/profile/06524839070322558069noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136354382922279761.post-6740337431779333312022-11-05T17:22:00.004-07:002022-11-05T17:22:18.583-07:00High School Computer Programming Free Online Course<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoNv727SR4EQWgJkJpfsg4-7bK-WPvYnLy-mBzy0wolMRvjlOFrgRWoxXARq7l4cGoz_8dsQWf-StGgWFHanWG9X0HywxKm92yF-xdYuTNV8iR0zL0l8ur1aCoy-9SfeV9kKp-9R_arKteN-sbiCNSJKPgs-Jeez3-C8_G5TpiSvHmkfRJaPDDSaHA/s4928/onlineprogramming.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3264" data-original-width="4928" height="252" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoNv727SR4EQWgJkJpfsg4-7bK-WPvYnLy-mBzy0wolMRvjlOFrgRWoxXARq7l4cGoz_8dsQWf-StGgWFHanWG9X0HywxKm92yF-xdYuTNV8iR0zL0l8ur1aCoy-9SfeV9kKp-9R_arKteN-sbiCNSJKPgs-Jeez3-C8_G5TpiSvHmkfRJaPDDSaHA/w380-h252/onlineprogramming.jpg" width="380" /></a></div><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">My sons are enjoying their elective of Computer Programming!</span><span style="font-size: large;"> We are using </span><a href="https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming" style="font-size: large;">Khan Academy's Computer Programming Course</a><span style="font-size: large;">. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The lessons are easy to follow, with video trials and fun animation as an introduction to programming.

She is an assertive girl who knows her own mind, exactly like her father. They heard my niece called this from other family members and it stuck in their mind. </div><div><br /></div><div>I asked my sons if they would call their cousin "bossy" if she were a little boy. They paused for awhile and one said, "I don't know, probably not. I don't think I've ever called a boy bossy."</div><div><br /></div><div>I then explained how I had been called a "bossy girl" my entire childhood and they needed to stop calling their cousin this. I'm 39 and still struggling with my leadership gifting because I don't want to be the "bossy girl".</div><div><br /></div><div>It didn't help I had an abusive mother who kind of messed up how I viewed women authority figures. Add in a Conservative Christian culture that confuses leadership with Lordship, and you get a woman who is scared to embrace her calling as a leader.</div><div><br /></div><div>I know some have tried to redeem the term "bossy girl" to "girl boss", but why qualify the term boss at all? I am a leader who happens to be a female, not a female leader. </div><div><br /></div><div>I am a leader who submits to God, which affects how I lead. Natural leaders need to learn how to not be bad bosses, to not lord their ideas and wants over others. Leadership is not Lordship. But that doesn't mean we don't lead when called. </div><div><br /></div><div>All this to say, please be aware that your words stick with little girls who are showing traits of being a strong leader. It can take years to untangle the term "bossy girl" from our identity.</div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Robyn http://www.blogger.com/profile/06524839070322558069noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136354382922279761.post-52442781058731728322022-09-08T09:16:00.001-07:002022-09-08T09:16:19.703-07:00What About Yourself Are You Proud of?<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW3Fs1cmDm9RCPPItHgGtnw6Ij0i0aNUNCW7NX8AA86N1LjhuoQpg_djaRleMkIBavxKdiEzzBAWAVeJFULi9YIgI7I9EZRGXt1U8_OuAbymodrSPs1YRb16p-aYn1EhT8K8c0fiamp77p-jASI_38tjkKA6cBy_GyA0bXptJmNaBq_oeF7iuxJ-Jn/s800/UntitledPost.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="800" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW3Fs1cmDm9RCPPItHgGtnw6Ij0i0aNUNCW7NX8AA86N1LjhuoQpg_djaRleMkIBavxKdiEzzBAWAVeJFULi9YIgI7I9EZRGXt1U8_OuAbymodrSPs1YRb16p-aYn1EhT8K8c0fiamp77p-jASI_38tjkKA6cBy_GyA0bXptJmNaBq_oeF7iuxJ-Jn/s320/UntitledPost.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p></p><blockquote style="text-align: center;">"Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing."<span style="text-align: left;"> </span></blockquote><blockquote style="text-align: center;"> 1 Thessalonians 5:11 </blockquote><p></p><p>When you see something beautiful in someone else, you should speak it. That applies to yourself too. What about yourself are you proud of? Encourage and build yourself up today.</p><p>We would never think that encouraging someone would lead to arrogance and unhealthy/toxic pride, so why don’t we allow ourselves to encourage our own hearts? As believers we are so on guard towards unhealthy pride/hubris that we don't want to speak encouragement to ourselves. Healthy pride is really just encouragement to our hearts and minds. </p><p>Remind yourself about a time when you did something hard. Remember how you persevered when you could have given up. Talk about the times you held on and walked one small step at a time through pain when you could have just sat down and let the hurt swallow you. Think about the amazing different traits God specifically created you with to help others. We are called as believers to persevere and to encourage, so do it to yourself too. </p><p>I'll go first.</p><p>I'm really proud that I fight for healing from trauma and abuse. I do it with counseling and the Armor of God, but so many have access to that armor and do not pick it up. They run from the battle when it doesn't feel fair, because it isn't fair. It isn't fair I have to keep fighting battles because of others' sin, but it is either fight or give up. I choose to keep fighting.</p><p>I'm also proud of the fact that I had 7lb and 6 lb twin boys vaginally. It was super scary and super hard, but I kept pushing (pun intended) and advocated for a safe delivery without a c-section, even when many thought there was no way I could do it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Please comment and tell me something you are proud of!!!

Sonlight offers a Mix and Match Program, which is more complicated, but also much more flexible. You pick the order your need for your student. </p><p>Our old curriculum, MFW high school, was much more simple: you bought 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grade depending on your child. This was great when ordering, but it limited you to one level and one learning sequence. The history and literature wwere scheduled to be chronological, from Creation to Modern Times. While this seems in theory like a great way to not have any historical gaps, you fly through reading a textbook with no time to digest what you are reading. Ninth Grade's history study was only Creation to the Greeks, so I assumed 10th grade would follow the family cycle and do Rome to Reformation, but I bought the 10th grade World History and Literature (which I sold without using) and it CRAMS all the history from Rome to Modern Times into one year. The 11th and 12th were two long years of American History from a textbook alone.</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWdg1vFFDDsnCTCCozOuaSNsgHj2aoC7DQ_qR1yo82zRuh5NeUiFIaylxp1SB3-daRTydPj0hw4cPPIGohvwDwTHe6x35H8AJB7WSaoEIuJyIBZ8QApRfOfG54EVuTIe4o9q7t2cPVBhlYPOVH_syo2LRL2fGRwmCZgrXRlPpGN1nrVcpkI6DHuPC5/s844/Mix-Match-10thgrade.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="539" data-original-width="844" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWdg1vFFDDsnCTCCozOuaSNsgHj2aoC7DQ_qR1yo82zRuh5NeUiFIaylxp1SB3-daRTydPj0hw4cPPIGohvwDwTHe6x35H8AJB7WSaoEIuJyIBZ8QApRfOfG54EVuTIe4o9q7t2cPVBhlYPOVH_syo2LRL2fGRwmCZgrXRlPpGN1nrVcpkI6DHuPC5/w418-h267/Mix-Match-10thgrade.jpg" width="418" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: right;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;">COST</span></b></p><p>My Father's World pricing has changed a lot since we began, a using it in Kindergarten.</p><p>I still believe when you are homeschooling a large group of multi-age students, MFW is still a a very good cost per student because of the large one classroom approach, I just can no longer say it is the most budget friendly.</p><p>My Father's World no longer has basic packages, which was extremely disappointing. For about two years during the pandemic they had also removed the ability to order a la carte, which was extremely frustrating when I would just need one or two books from MFW, but I just checked and they finally brought it back. Enough people must have complained. </p><p>I had originally went with MFW over Sonlight because it was way cheaper, but for High School it didn't make sense to pay so much for items we were not going to use. Most high school homeschoolers have to buy their math, science, and electives separately anyways, so Sonlight's ability to mix and match and buy a la carte History and Literature items made it so I didn't have books we would not use, like we did with MFW 9th grade.</p><p>To make Sonlight cheaper you really do have to work at it, we used <a href="https://www.leadingthemtotherock.com/2019/04/howtohomeschoolwhenyoucantaffordit.html">all my homeschooling on a budget tips to do it.</a> </p><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;"><b>TENTH GRADE CURRICULUM</b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;"><div style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-size: large;"><u>Agendas</u></span></b></div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; text-align: left;">The boys each have their own basket from the Dollar Tree that store their calculators, math student sheets, pencils, and any other school supplies.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6I-XrC1Jywi2YrviNzI_UU2YMLhL6BFz4R_hlhfNl_6lazos8tTQHuYzTVlikxYxCNPGWFZM-BE0Gw6kTxlY5ztN60BCxpuh63Wregq37RNd4KByAZQ4yf1vWJT1OFtphaPLxohO-ze95T5PWzu1KsVLT55pvSsSpUluEvQoQSP4oJM0MimI2qEV5/s4928/DSC_1464.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3264" data-original-width="4928" height="246" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6I-XrC1Jywi2YrviNzI_UU2YMLhL6BFz4R_hlhfNl_6lazos8tTQHuYzTVlikxYxCNPGWFZM-BE0Gw6kTxlY5ztN60BCxpuh63Wregq37RNd4KByAZQ4yf1vWJT1OFtphaPLxohO-ze95T5PWzu1KsVLT55pvSsSpUluEvQoQSP4oJM0MimI2qEV5/w372-h246/DSC_1464.JPG" width="372" /></a></div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; text-align: left;">The only con I have seen so far for Sonlight is the manual isn't just one simple open and go with ALL your subjects, like MFW.

The parent guide is helpful because it also provides answers.

Some of the best advice I’ve ever received from a mentor homeschool mom was to ease into my year with a few subjects at a time. If may be hard for those of you who like to check off all your boxes, but a slow start for the year is a healthy way to allow a students’ confidence to grow for each subject as it comes, and as the teacher I can get a handle on our school year routine. We start history and science on our first week, add math the second week, language arts the third, and by the fourth week we are full steam ahead. The half day also allows us to do some of the other fun first day traditions.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT8gRdeTzK8BSyrD9v373F-iDCiYrT8wbGcXB5UTnpcaatIqM9xGCdtF1oXLbK8nxDH31L_oiyvdzEcE7EeYX-4_1iJIkuW1jh2v-X8rYBXb9IfVwOOpQHB6NxHTGZ83Z6lGHB9gAoPN9t5mpNesPtYoWZ1m6WKKN-luAp0zhBX9LPCDHQTBcxbkHQ/s800/UntitledPost%20(18).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="800" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT8gRdeTzK8BSyrD9v373F-iDCiYrT8wbGcXB5UTnpcaatIqM9xGCdtF1oXLbK8nxDH31L_oiyvdzEcE7EeYX-4_1iJIkuW1jh2v-X8rYBXb9IfVwOOpQHB6NxHTGZ83Z6lGHB9gAoPN9t5mpNesPtYoWZ1m6WKKN-luAp0zhBX9LPCDHQTBcxbkHQ/s320/UntitledPost%20(18).jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Back to Homeschool Tip #2</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">START THE YEAR WITH FUN!</span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><br /></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">A simple treasure hunt gives real joy to your morning, without derailing the schedule for the day. We have four to five simple clues, and the prizes at the end are always inexpensive and related to school. This year the prizes were erasable colored pencils and chewing gum. It is OK that the clues are easy and the hunt only takes five minutes, because the object of the game is NOT problem-solving hard riddles. The object is to start school with fun! I thought my junior high boys would have grown out of this tradition this year, but it was just as exciting as when they were in 1st grade. We have each boy take turns reading and solving a clue.

The next year our “first day of school” pictures took place on the fourth day of lessons at 4:30pm and I had to beg my kids to change out of pajamas! Give yourselves a break! You are the mom, the cook, the principal, security guard, and teacher. It is OK to not be the perfectly scheduled yearbook photographer.

Our AirBnb in Park City was minutes from park entrance, but even then it was still a full 10 to 15 minute drive to visitor center. If you stay near the north entrance you will have to use the Ferry to get to the Visitor Center for Cave Tours, and that could really delay your day, or even make you miss a tour. </li><ul><li>I'd recommend Cave City or Park City. We looked at AirBnbs that were 20 to 45 minutes from the entrance, which would have meant we couldn't come and go from the park like we did. Since it was free and close, we didn't feel like we had to be in the park all day. We left, ate dinner, then would come back for an evening hike or a look at the dark sky</li></ul></ul><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Learning-Cursive-Hobbit-Handwriting-Practice/dp/107772148X?qid=1658169577&refinements=p_27%3ARobyn+Joyner&s=books&sr=1-2&text=Robyn+Joyner&linkCode=li3&tag=leadingthemto-20&linkId=938dba6598a49c154525d9e41adbcfbb&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_il" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?_encoding=UTF8&ASIN=107772148X&Format=_SL250_&ID=AsinImage&MarketPlace=US&ServiceVersion=20070822&WS=1&tag=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US" /></a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=leadingthemto-20&language=en_US&l=li3&o=1&a=107772148X" style="border: none; margin: 0px;" width="1" /> </div><p></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>CA</b></span><b style="color: #cc0000;">VE TOUR TIPS</b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>BOOK EARLY- </b>We had picked our cave tours 2 months ahead of time, but hadn't checked out for a few weeks because we were waiting a few scheduling details.

Our ranger told us he had to carry an 80 year woman out of the cave just the day before because half way through she just said she was done and fell down. If you have a medical emergency it will take several hours (they said average of 4 hours) to get you out of the cave</li><p></p><ol><li><u>Remember to check stair count before booking tour</u>- You are going down into the earth, and then have to come back UP! Almost all tours start and end with the starts at the Historic Entrance, but many have hundred more on the tours itself!

And this hill then has to be climbed AFTER you end your tour. It isn't too bad going down, but when you come out of a 2 hour tour with hundreds of steps, into a 30/40 degree temptation change, that hill feels a lot steeper.</li></ol></ul><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAfnuoKV50aykfiHUCAYkzM6qm4TAPCC_sgkxo5-LnbOKUc_kWm3BY0KdnUj8qtARu9T4g5UyCNawXIHlIF_55EcQ-g0Eo9dYOFWZqjbaEccLSc7b4DSlTm7rjP9fqtZCBruAqgo7wexQbgUbzEgabWZCiguURNJsaijW_ZeKsAFFodbvWFmrd9UeG/s3264/20220714_135653.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3264" data-original-width="2448" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAfnuoKV50aykfiHUCAYkzM6qm4TAPCC_sgkxo5-LnbOKUc_kWm3BY0KdnUj8qtARu9T4g5UyCNawXIHlIF_55EcQ-g0Eo9dYOFWZqjbaEccLSc7b4DSlTm7rjP9fqtZCBruAqgo7wexQbgUbzEgabWZCiguURNJsaijW_ZeKsAFFodbvWFmrd9UeG/s320/20220714_135653.jpg" width="240" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i>The temperature change from the cave to the surface is drastic and fogged our glasses. <br /> Our guide told us the temp change can also give several people a headache.<br /><br /></i></td></tr></tbody></table><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>DRESS IN LAYERS-</b> It is 54 degrees in the cave, but you are moving a lot so we were very comfortable in shorts and a sweatshirt. On our lantern tour I began to get hot from the lantern I was carrying and took off my sweatshirt a few times, but would quickly replace as the cold winds blew through.</li></ul><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>CHOOSE YOUR SPOT IN LINE TO DETERMINE PACE-</b> </li><ul><li><i><u>To go slower</u></i>: Pick how close you're to the guide to helping with pacing. It seems counter intuitive, but the tour guides wisely informed us that in big tours stay in front nearest the guide to go at a SLOWER pace. The tour of 100 people get big gaps when the trail bottle necks in a tight spaces, so people in back have to rush to keep up. I had read one negative review on our historic tour where someone complained they felt rushed. I can now see they must have been at the back and had to keep rushing to keep up with the group.</li><li><i><u>Lantern tour:</u></i> We liked being in the back of the lantern tour because we were able to see more of the cave with all the lights. I do think it would have been cool to see the darkness at the front of the line though. It was a much smaller tour of only 40 people so we never felt rushed in the back.</li></ul></ul><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>TRY A LANTERN TOUR FIRST- </b>Our first tour into the cave was the Star Chamber Tour.

Some of the spots are SO tight you really won't be able to duck enough to get a baby on your back through.

Don't forget to add their homemade BBQ sauce, the Sweet is AMAZING</li></ul><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7gqMtSE8GlCZXVa0hjDESe2hC9-vsf2wV2bDxqgTzG_vyXY7ccx4N-KtOpkV5b6IhNagCOkCiMbVYBCC-Kw3MvjXA09fSvPfUD8tymy2U5RdfqKgqOvN3mTOksGDZ6dB1v-bi3t2UVaSUBUGAlSstGqouTlYrmX_zbrg4o0YND2u75ScxGGRi_9Sn/s4160/20220714_185541.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3120" data-original-width="4160" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7gqMtSE8GlCZXVa0hjDESe2hC9-vsf2wV2bDxqgTzG_vyXY7ccx4N-KtOpkV5b6IhNagCOkCiMbVYBCC-Kw3MvjXA09fSvPfUD8tymy2U5RdfqKgqOvN3mTOksGDZ6dB1v-bi3t2UVaSUBUGAlSstGqouTlYrmX_zbrg4o0YND2u75ScxGGRi_9Sn/s320/20220714_185541.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtUsHDbZaMUx1w53iZ9ZK6W_ANJVe7gaYSwmgQC6m7bwhlJ-_ok2ku5RZZv3z9D06w98vrh5JJo9B05kvOnL_qx1f1H8wHrcxf9ELk8UOugP1U0lK7lJjDgV5Uqx6voMNhHvkko_FDrlw31ldVUuNaJ5J8FzD1dz6nKDY7wPcGXRGmhsuNfRkjEWqz/s4160/20220714_182805.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3120" data-original-width="4160" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtUsHDbZaMUx1w53iZ9ZK6W_ANJVe7gaYSwmgQC6m7bwhlJ-_ok2ku5RZZv3z9D06w98vrh5JJo9B05kvOnL_qx1f1H8wHrcxf9ELk8UOugP1U0lK7lJjDgV5Uqx6voMNhHvkko_FDrlw31ldVUuNaJ5J8FzD1dz6nKDY7wPcGXRGmhsuNfRkjEWqz/s320/20220714_182805.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/cavecitycoffeeandcreamery/">Cave City Creamery</a>-</b> Great little Ice Cream and Coffee Place for the whole family.

Not a lot of options to begin with, but a lot of possible rejection when you finally find the one you want!</p><p>Housing Shopping in a seller's market feels like dating in other ways too:</p><p><b><span style="color: #800180; font-size: large;">1. YOUR CHECKLIST</span></b></p><p>Everyone has their checklist, either in their head or on paper. </p><p>Needs versus wants. "He needs to be nice, but I also want him to be tall and a musician" is similar to "It needs to be 3 bedroom, but I'd also love first floor laundry!" </p><p>The checklist starts to get smaller and smaller as you see too many houses. You starts to settle. First is starts as "We don't need a laundry on the main level" and eventually you get to "Do we really <i>need </i>a 3rd bedroom?"</p><p><b><span style="color: #800180; font-size: large;">2. ATTRACTION</span></b></p><p>There are houses are that are "just OK", and you talk yourself into going on a date/showing to see if maybe there is more of a spark. </p><p>Sometimes you know within a few minutes that this isn't going to work out, and try to figure out a way to bail early without feeling like you've wasted your friends'/realtor's time.</p><p>Then there are houses that make your heart race the moment you see them. The process begins by looking through amazingly lit and edited photos. You swipe right based on the great pictures they provided. Great angles and lighting make too small things seem bigger, and too big things seem smaller. As you swipe through pictures, you can imagine spending your life with them. </p><p>You text back and forth with your mutual friend/realtor to set up a first date/showing. You revisit the page and stalk the street it's on and nearby neighborhood stats, maybe look at it's profile on several different realty apps to see if anyone has any extra information. </p><p><b><span style="color: #800180; font-size: large;">3. COMPETITION </span></b></p><p>The better looking the house, the more people who are texting and trying to set up a date/showing!</p><p>There are houses you fall in love with almost instantly. In today's market you know many others are checking your house out, and a second date isn't even possible before others swoop in and start making their own dates. The more people that want the house, the more you want it!</p><p>You know this house won't wait for you long, so you buck your courage and you make your move/offer. Your gather all your best qualities, references from awesome banks who say you are safest and best bet. It is even better if they know and trust your bank, like a mutual friend who vouches for you.</p><p><b><span style="color: #800180; font-size: large;">4. REJECTION</span></b></p><p>In a seller's market, there is a lot of rejection. Even though it is just a business transaction, like dating, it is hard to not take personally. </p><p>When the owners pick someone else, you wonder what you could have done differently. If only you made more money, would they have chosen you? Did they think the letter you wrote was too desperate?</p><p>Some houses are easy to get over, and you almost feel relieved they didn't take your offer. Some houses were so good no house will ever come close to them, they will always be the standard to which you compare all future homes. </p><p><b><span style="color: #800180; font-size: large;">5. PUTTING YOURSELF BACK OUT THERE</span></b></p><p>Eventually you have to nurse your wounds and go back out there. </p><p>Sometimes a rejection is so painful you need a little time to recover before putting yourself out there again. You are determined to move on by focusing on it's flaws, "I really did want a main floor laundry room, so it is ok that wasn't the house for us!"</p><p>All the friends who know you're dating/house hunting will start sending you "a house that who would be great for you!" What they don't realized is you have swiped through pictures of every house they have send you, and either rejected it or <i>been</i> rejected by it.</p><p><span style="color: #800180; font-size: large;"><b>6. ACCEPTANCE</b></span></p><p>You will either buy a house or accept that you are not moving. </p><p>Unless God brings us a home from a friend before it hits the market, we have accepting that we are not moving <a href="https://www.leadingthemtotherock.com/2017/01/trading-fancy-for-freedom.html">from our starter home</a>. The rates are rising and the economy is tightening, so we are again thankful for this tiny little house that is almost paid off!</p><p><br /></p><p>While I want to find the house that may fit us better, after almost 19 years of marriage, I truly never want to feel this awful dating feeling again! </p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

I've tried it all; traditional school year schedule, Sabbath Schooling (6 weeks on/1 week off), year-round school, and even a season of unschooling.</p><p>Does your summer homeschool plan address the needs of your personality and family structure?

My younger kids needed a full no holds barred summer break, no lessons and no review, just parks days and playing in the blow up pool. My now teens needs some structure or they will just SIT all summer. They also really need Algebra 1 review so they don't struggle with Algebra 2 in the fall (they took Geometry this past year).</p><p>S<i>ome approaches didn't work because it just didn't fit my kids' or my personality. </i></p><p>I like flexibility and have to plan in a lot of margin so we don't overschedule, but I also need structure or my days feels restless and I don't get anything done. My kids are also not super sportsy and we don't have kids in our neighborhood their age anymore. We don't have travel league in the summer that we have to structure around. They will sit and read for 8+ hours, which I'm not really complaining about, but they also need to be kicked out of the house every once and awhile to MOVE THEIR BODIES and TALK TO PEOPLE. It is a balance. </p><p>If any of the above rang true to you, please check your heart for the low-key judgment of other homeschoolers summer plans.

What I have found most challenging and new in transitioning from middle to high school is that I am now the High School Counselor, as well as teacher. </p><p>The best advice I have been given for homeschooling high school is to not wait until Senior year to work on your student's transcript. I have also found transcript planning as a very helpful tool in planning what courses we need to take and what curriculum to buy.</p><p>I could not find the template I wanted, so I created one.
