Progress Report

2019-2020 School Year is official, the year is over! 

 I am so so proud of both the boys and us for all our HARDWORK homeschooling this year.  Now time to turn in our progress report and portfolio from Dylan's 3rd and Hudson's 2nd year.  I think we may of surprised the school with this.  They were not sure what to do with it.  Then said they would make a folder for them in their homeschool section.  OK!  Its all copies, I have the originals so do as you wish.  We are just proud of our work.

Another picture....I feel so proud!

Contact: Jodel or Justin Edwards 808-757-8049 or 757-8052

Our Fall 2019 to Spring 2020 Homeschool year was a success for us.  Dylan completed 3rd grade and Hudson completed 2nd grade.  They both finished all of the curriculum workbooks we planned for them for the year, read a ton of chapter books, read alouds and audibles, did various projects, book reports, research, wrote stories, helped weekly at the Maui Humane Society and showed a love of learning especially when we went weekly to the library.  They read to the Maui Paw dogs at the library, interviewed friends and family, researched topics they were interested in and excelled in reading, writing, and math.  They both have finished their Summer Bridge Brain Quest workbooks and are ready to start 3rd and 4th grade.  In this portfolio we have included some copies of their work.

Some of their favorite workbooks that worked with their learning styles were Flash Kids Reading Comprehension, Evan Moor Math Skills and Fundamentals, Evan Moor Daily Science, Spectrum Spelling was easy for them and Evan Moor was a little more challenging. 

The end of the year.
