So I was going through my homeschool folder on my PC and located a page I had forgotten all about bookmarking. My son spent all day yesterday doing these fantastic science simulations and playing a space simulation game. I finally had to kick him off my PC at 7pm for dinner!
They were made by University of Colorado Boulder.


If you have kids who like to play video games then they will probably get a kick out of these interactive science lessons. And you can tie them into whatever you are learning about in Science.

Now that we find the holiday break over it is time to get back into the swing of things. We had a few extra days off during our holiday break due to illness. We are now at the tail end of this crud, so we are trying to ease back into our routine. I have spent the last couple of days trying to decide how we can get back on schedule without overwhelming the kids or myself.


The best idea I have come up with so far is to spend 2 days doing a review of what we've covered prior to the holiday. What are your thoughts? How are you all handling the transition back into school work?
