Homeschool days...

Connor with our two gliders for our science experiment on flight...

Getting ready to fly the first glider...

Recording the results -- ie, distance flown.  Our variable is wing dimensions.

Our first field trip this school year -- New Market Battlefield (Civil War). 
We love the Virginia mountains.  Beautiful day trip -- a much needed day of rest.

19th Century Bushong Farm

Going to "class" -- our first year at Classical Conversations which meets at a nearby church every Tuesday.  We love it!  One of our big projects for this year is memorizing 192 history timeline cards in order -- wow!
