Last Tuesday, 13yo dd talked to me about having "holes" in her education. I decided that using Core Knowledge would be a great way to fill some of the gaps. When I tried to suggest it the next day, she gave me a hard time and I was quite mad about it.
Tonight (Christmas) I was sitting in a recliner feeling drugged from all the food I had eaten and 13yo asks if we are doing school the next day. I could tell from her tone of voice that she was actually making a suggestion. In my brain I was thinking, "What? I don't want to do school tomorrow!" We spent the next hour or so talking about the changes we want to try.
Tomorrow she and I will ease into a new school schedule (The Loop).
