School -- Done Virtually

I, Steph, have gone back to school --

as Ammon's 4th grade teacher.

We chose to do virtual school

while we are in Hong Kong.

- K12 for Ammon

& iAchieve for Haleigh and Caleb -

We felt this would give us the flexibility

needed to travel.

Georgia Cyber Academy is the

official name of Ammon's school.

Because we are Georgia residents

I signed up on line,

they shipped me the books, &

I attended a few online orientations.

ALL at NO COST!

I am grateful the Georgia public

school system has this program.

It has been a HUGE blessing for our family.

This is how our day begins ...

(usually at 9am)

I go to the web - site

Click on PLAN

-I can choose to show daily or weekly plans-

We are required to spend at least

5 hours a day - 5 days per week doing school.

I usually choose the weekly plan so I can

see what the expectations are for

each day of the week.

That way if Ammon gets done with a

lesson quickly we can click on the

assignment for the next day and

complete it too.

It really is quite amazing.

I am learning A LOT!!!

Today I realized how good it is for me.

I am learning right along with Ammon.

4th graders are SMARTER than I am.

We will see if next year

I'm smarter than a 5th grader ;).

We were studying the MODERN AGE today.

I asked Ammon -

"What do you think of when you hear

the word modern?"

His answer --

"Snuggies"

Of course!!! Have you seen their commercials?

Oh, SO modern.
