Classical Conversations

Well last week on Friday we started the first day of Classical Conversations Rockford South. I think it is safe to say that it went very well. Margaret and I were extremely nervous about the first day. We wanted so badly to set the tone for a great year. The kids were all excited and we heard numerous stories of kids waking up at 5am eager to go to "school". This has been great for me as a parent also. It's nice to be able to talk to another parent on the same page as me. Especially if I don't understand something! :) Our kids are having a lot of fun doing their memory work and are happily looking forward to Friday. We had a little trouble getting started on some of our other subjects this year. We painted our school room (the basement) and it proved to be a much larger project than expected. It is now finished! We will be organizing and arranging everything and will start our official full first day on Monday. I can't wait.
