Video Coaching for a Midsummer Night's Dream

YouTube is an excellent source for homeschool lessons.

Here is a video series where a teacher talks about a Midsummer Night's Dream.

He suggests watching the video.  I recommend reading the book and watching the video, and viewing his series.  (as I write this he has completed two videos and promises to complete the final one... I have every confidence that he will complete the series.)

Enjoy

Homeschoolers and the GED

Transcript (summarized)

I just want to do a quick video about homeschoolers and the GED.

I love reading my daughters facebook

What?

My favorite photo was likely taken in between shows on Friday... I recognize the outfit.  She is using her friend

White Christmas is Over ...Boo!

So the musical that my daughter's homeschool group did, White Christmas, is over.  She did a run of 5 shows last weekend, plus spent over week before that in non-stop dress rehearsals, not to mention that 8 or so hours a week in rehearsals since August.  I get tired just thinking about it.
