The first day of (home) school went well ~ PRAISE THE LORD! I can't say as much for the other days, but we're off to a good start. (Please excuse the poor quality in the photos. I had to use my cell phone.)

We've tried to employ a few ideas that make school run more smoothly. Nana helps supply our Snack Basket. We keep this in the kitchen and the kids can pick out something and serve themselves a snack while other are still schooling or Momma is playing catch-up trying to get lessons together for the remainder of the school day!
We also have a Prize Box the kids can pick something out of when they do a good job on their school work and have a good attitude. Papaw helped supply items for the Prize Box and Mommy bought a few things from Oriental Trading Company (bubbles, pencils, erasers) and added a few miniture Snickers, Swedish Fish and Smarties!

just an idea, we did a prize box with austin, but as a way of saving a little bit of money, we made a chart and every time he had really good days or good papers and such we would put a sticker on the chart and then when he had 5 stickers he would get a prize... dont know if that is of any use for you but just a thought :-)
