Teaching Children About Healthy Boundaries
This video is hilarious, I think mostly because all of us have dealt with men like this at one point or another. I actually used this video with Rose today in an effort to talk a little bit about appropriate boundaries. Sometimes you need to ask people to leave you alone firmly. Elf popped into the room, saw what was on the computer, and told me that the little kids shouldn't be watching language this inappropriate. Of course he didn't know such words existed at that age... yes, I over-coddled the kiddo. Hopefully he's gotten over it.

History/ Geography
We're doing Alpha Omega LIFEPAC's History and Geography. This is the third grade set. Yes, it's easy and has a cartoon bumble-bee explaining everything for you. Even so, it seems like quite a bit of material for children to absorb. If you're unfamiliar with LIFEPACs, there are ten workbooks to a set that is meant to last a full school year. Because the children are in fifth and fourth grades, it will not take us nearly that long to complete.
I've also gotten flash cards so that the children can know at least most of the states' capitals and some other countries' as well.
