School Supplies!

Jason thinks I am weird for enjoying new school supplies and storage containers and that sort of thing. He's never actually called me weird (over this anyway)...he just doesn't get it. But I know for a fact that other homeschool moms understand!

So next year we will be making geography vocabulary word cards. The teacher's manual suggests writing the word and definition on an index card, illustrating, and filing in a card file box...then of course reviewing often. But at Wal-Mart today I found these nifty little notebooks for index cards. They already have 50 index cards in them and you can buy refill packs with the holes of course punched in just the right place. So I bought one for each of my two students. Yippee!


The first assignment will be to decorate an index card and then slip it into the little sleeve for the cover. That's right, the fun here never ends.

Oh those are so cool! I love school supplies by the way, Mike laughs because the kids and I could spend HOURS on the school supply aisle.

Well, even if your dh thinks your weird, I know many a homeschooling momma who would be thrilled about their new school supplies as well! Enjoy!
