Happy Monday! We started school this morning. It was time! Time for routine goodness. It went really well. We're using a lot of new curriculum this year and starting our 5th year of homeschooling, we were due for a change. I wanted to take you on a quick spin of our "classroom" which is also our dining room. Multipurpose is good.
This shelf holds everything. Our supplies, daily work, current books and current papers. The rest of our school books are downstairs on shelves, but this shelf holds our current books.
This is my box. I have 8 folder and they hold all the papers I'm going to need for the first 8 weeks. This system is working really well. I have all my copies made for the first 8 weeks so I don't have to be running to the copy machine during the school day.
On the bottom shelf I have two baskets (World Market) that I hot glued little chalkboards to. Each basket holds books for our science and history units we're working on. I am really liking this so far.
Last, I put each kids' daily workbooks and things into these magazine files. I covered the outside in graph paper and hot glued the metal letters to. I found them at Micheals and they didn't have a J, so Jack got a 7 ;)
So there you have it...our school room. I love doing school at the table. We're close to the kitchen, the laundry, the rest of the house.
I'm super excited for this school year. It's gonna be great!!

i have been having fun prettying ours up, but now the real work has begun!
i have to admit, i wouldn't mind an actual school room to have more space, but the dining room is super cozy, and i'm content with it. :)
