My View of Homeschooling



iHomeschool Network blog series: A Kids View of Homeschooling

What is your favorite thing about being homeschooled? I really think that reading was my favorite subject. It helps me engage in one of my hobbies.

What field trip have you enjoyed most this school year? When I went on a nature walk with my friend. We saw a lot of interesting things, like a water snake and a water strider.

What area do you think you have improved most this year?  I have started drawing a series of posters. I call it Dangerville because it shows a whole lot of people in danger. It includes monsters, helicopters, floating panels and spikes.

What are some of your favorite books that you have read? The Five Kingdoms book is one of my favorites. It is about a boy who finds a magical world.

What are some of your other hobbies? Well, I have a lot of hobbies, but here are my top 5: Building / collecting Legos - drawing and cartooning and reading and playing Minecraft.

Magyk




    Magyk is a very interesting book which is about a man named Silas who, on the day his newborn son "dies" he finds a newborn girl in the snow. He takes her in, and finds out that she is the princess of the kingdom.The leader of the kingdom is trying to kill the princess, so he sets up an assassin next door to Silas. A wizard comes and takes Jenna "the princess" to the wizard tower. But she is not safe there, so they retreat to the marsh.
I really like this book very much and I hope you like it too.

My Sister


                This is my gorgeous sister when she was one day old. She was born on May 5, 2010 at 3:30 in the morning!
                                         
                                         I enjoy playing with my sister all day long.
Christine loves playing with my brother and I.
 

 When we first introduced her to Chick-fil-a milkshakes, she was sucking it down!

 
                                          For her 4th birthday, Christine got her 2nd haircut!

Five Kingdoms




Five Kingdoms by Brandon Mull


This book is about a boy who goes to a haunted  house for trick-or-treating. He discovers that kidnappers from another world came there. He found out that they planned to trap him and his friends. When he entered a portal he got caught by the kidnappers. He gets sold to people who rob floating castles.

I thought that this book was very interesting because of the adventure. I enjoyed this book and I hope you do too.

Nater's Nook's First Post


     This is something I made in the Lego class I went to a few months ago. I had to use almost all the pieces!

    It was a quote from The Lego Movie.
