Lindsey has spent her time at the community college again this week learning how to build computers. She has realized that she really does like gadgets and electronics, and likes working on these projects. Her classes are from 1-4pm, so today is her final class, and she'll be doing a presentation, so I'll have photos for you next week, hopefully.
Olivia has been working on UnLock Algebra I all week. She's really liking this program, well as much as one can like Algebra. She'll be completing this program during the summer/early fall before moving into Algebra II, to make sure she has a really good understanding of the basic concepts.
She also worked on some World War II studies this week and made a garrison cap from felt. I think it turned out pretty well.
Olivia also had volleyball and basketball practice this week. She will be the new setter for the JV volleyball team and they'll be getting uniforms sized in the next few weeks. Her first game w August 23. Basketball is still iffy. The division the school is in only allows 3 homeschooled students per team, and they have 4, so she'll have to try out and see if she makes the cut or not.
We went to a few baseball games in the evenings. It's fun sitting in the stands and watching the games and the fans. It takes so much pressure off when your kid isn't on the team, no worries if there's a strike out or bad play, grins. The league we go to is all college players who are hoping to make it big. It's nice when you do see one of them get drafted by a major league team.
How has your week been? Anything exciting going on for the weekend?
Linking up with the Weekly Wrap Up.
Sounds like a good week. We are doing a few review products this month too. It is nice to keep some school going.

That hat came out great! We have been enjoying a very slow and quiet summer but after peeking at July's calendar I don't think that will last.
