You can also use the Homeschool Hi-Lights graphic, if you want to.

Normally, the Homeschool Hi-Lights Meme will be available with a Mr. Linky at 11:00 pm (eastern time) on Sunday.

My Homeschool Hi-Light - Spring Break

We had Spring Break this past week. It was very interesting to observe what my kids learned even though we were taking a break from school. It goes to show that learning is a natural part of a homeschooler's life.

Instead of focusing on just one Hi-Light, this week. I'm going to list a few real life learning hi-lights for this past week of Spring Break. All of these were fun things that the kids chose to do on their own.

• My son made the Homeschool Hi-Lights graphic for me. He also helped me by setting up Mr. Linky. What would I do without his computer knowledge?
  
• The girls did some outdoor experiments that involved: melting snow, ditches, shovels, rocks, and sand.
• My son and I enjoyed 4 episodes of an astronomy show on the History channel.
• The girls enjoyed learning how to cook some dinners with Dad.
• We all played Dutch Blitz (helps with basic math skills and it really exercises the brain)
