New Curriculum Finds

I was bopping around on some Homeschool blogs this afternoon and came across Confessions of a Homeschooler. I took a peek at what curriculum she uses for her kids and saw that she does a Physical Education course and a Typing course, both of which I have wanted to add to our homeschool day.

Family Time Fitness: Fitness 4 Homeschool looks like a wonderful addition to our day. Fitting it into our day might be tricky but I think it is well worth it. PE is one area that our children obviously miss out on not going to public school. And though they are involved in sports, it would be nice to get them active at home. Not to mention it would be nice for me as well to be active with my children. So I am seriously considering this purchase even though I have already blown my HS budget for the year!! $57 isn't that much, right?!

Just this afternoon at lunch my oldest was asking about typing and how to learn. I have looked around for tools to help teach my kids to type but never found anything I was willing to purchase. And to be honest, typing just hasn't been on top of our priority list and to be frank is probably still near the bottom. I think the kids would enjoy learning to type though, so maybe I will add this in at least once or twice a week.

Every time I think I have all the "bases" covered I discover something else I want my kids to learn. I am sure that is never ending. Just the life of a homeschooler
