Dealing with homework

This has been a huge adjustment for the kiddos!  Homework.  We haven't had to do this for the last three years...we always did the work right after the teaching time.  The girls have study hall time...but didn't quite understand how that worked.  This week has been better...but it still requires much time and self-discipline.

Monday we had a goal to finish by the time Dad got home from work...for a special treat after Dad and Mom's errand date.  We ALL deserved this and thoroughly enjoyed the MI brand!

Tuesday night's bribe...I mean encouragement...if homework was completed...watching Allie and Bryn play volleyball.

So many new things to deal with and so many opportunities to enjoy.  Once the kiddos figure it all out and how it all works...for them...we know they will "step it up"!
