We always try to do something fun every week. Sometimes we schedule it on Wednesdays, to kind of get us over the hump!

You can always check you state’s Atlas, they usually provide listings of museums, sites of interest, scenic areas, hiking trails, etc. There’s bound to be something free you can check out on a tank-full of gas, and the beauty of homeschooling is that you can stretch the “educational” term to great lengths and get away with it.

A few other fun day ideas: Even though it doesn’t normally fall on a Friday, some local museums have free days to the public. For instance, the Seattle Art Museum is free on the first Thursday of every month. Search if any museums have a free day in your area, and you will be pleasantly surprised. Another option that I suggest is a company I work with called DreamBox Learning. They specialize in math software targeted at kindergarten – 2nd grade children. There are many great resources for parents and teachers on the site, making it a fantastic math tool for a fun and active lesson plan. Tracys last blog post..Sometimes Things Just Don’t Compute…
