• I always try to take advantage of special class opportunities that come up through 4-H, the library, universities, and more, too!

any times, I’ll plan field trips to go along with a current unit study.  Other times, we just go with the flow of opportunities that arise.  I work hard to integrate field trips into our schooling regularly.  Like one or two per month, sometimes more.  They really have proven to be that powerful in real learning!  Not to mention, they keep us from getting burned out on bookwork – especially in the “blue” months of homeschooling.
