Mohaus Schoolhouse Week 10

I posted last week about our tenth week of homeschool, but I was wrong. This past week was Week 10. I have to be honest and say we are really struggling through our days right now.

Homeschool mamas who have been in the trenches longer, please share some encouragement for this weary mama.

We have really good parts of our days but are struggling through other parts. We started listening to the Young Ben Franklin podcast — which is fantastic and has peaked our curiosity — but other things like language arts have become a battle ground. 

I am finding creative ways to combat it like coming up with fantastical stories in the car but getting them put to paper is almost impossible and spelling is an uphill battle. 

Our hike this week was good but we aren’t fitting in all that I feel like we need to. 

And while Jack is able to recite a handful of lines from a Midsummer Night’s Dream, our days are far from perfect and I want to be real here and share snippets of the good and bad. 

 We ended our week by camping at Montgomery Bell State Park and attending my sister-in-laws wedding, and Jack seems to have picked up a viral infection that includes headaches and a fever at night. Maybe that is why our days have been hard...
