Our Homeschool Journey: A Weekly Reflection
Hey friends! I am going to share a recap of our homeschool week along with the lessons we do to give a glimpse into home education for the next month or so. I thought this may be helpful for those that are considering or just getting started on their homeschool journey to see what homeschooling can look like. Of course, homeschooling will look different for each family which is the best part of homeschooling. Let me know if you find this helpful and would like to see more of this!
