As I've mentioned before our h/s evaluation by an accredited teacher is being done on Thursday. I wanted to have something organized for my piece of mind, so began write down what we've done. I thought the homeschooling, and unschooling moms might like to see it. It all looks rather impressive somehow. Especially when I know I'm missing a lot of stuff.
