Welcome!

I just completed my 13th year of evaluating homeschoolers in Pennsylvania. Its hard to believe I have been doing it for that long! I started right after I had my first baby and and decided not to return as a 4th Grade teacher. The school where I was working had a Homeschool division and asked me to return and help with homeschool evaluations. I found the families that I worked with so inspiring that I ultimately decided to homeschool my own children! Now, 13 years later, I am just as inspired each year. As I meet with the families I find myself taking lots of notes. Usually, those notes are not about the student's work, but instead is a note to myself of some curriculum I'd like to try, field trip I'd like to take, or an activity I think my kids would enjoy. I decided to open up this blog as a place where I can share some of these things with the larger homeschool community. I don't have a timeline or an agenda, I just want to share what has been shared with me. Enjoy!
