End Of The Year Books

To answer the comment on another post where I was asked about the end of the year books the boys are currently working on:

The school gives the boys a packet to create a book of their choice. It can be on anything:

• A story they like
• A story they made up
• Poems they think are cool
• A book about me
• A slam book
• A "book about me"
• A portfolio through the year.

The school sends it in (along with the parents payment) to be bound and printed like a "real" book. Last year I just had them make construction paper books because we were too late.
If you don't use a charter school, you can make them or purchase a blank one. Let the kids go wild with it and add what they want.
If you unschool, you could add pictures from field trips, art paintings, a list of books you read, movies, documentaries or something else that you can think of. Have them list their favorite day, trip, project, visit, etc. The ideas are endless! And it can act as a portfolio for you as well as a treasured memoir for you, maybe a wonderful gift for the grandparents.
Hope you enjoy this idea. If you make one, please let me know about it!

ARGH! Freaking blog!

So I was trying to change the name of the blog from "The Baker's Anchor" to "Bloggin' Log In" (cute, huh! And it rhymes). And I keep getting and error page. It says to report it to Blogger Help or support or whatever. I remember what happened the last time I tried that. Hours of searching how to find the help and support and lot of Excedrin later, I finally posted my woes to the blog. Thanks for the help again! But I am not going through all that again. So I am just posting it to the blog.

 

There is what I was doing. Here is the code they gave me. bX-r3vwen

 

My job is done. Have a great day!

Working on a career

Miles and Mendel will be working on their end of the school year books this week. By the end of the year they will have a hard bound book written by them! I love it! And soon, they will be working on their last six week project for school! I can't wait! They love they last six weeks of school.

As for me, I am working on my writing skills. I know you can't tell since I hardly update the blog lately... lame excuse, I know. But I signed up at associated content. Click here to see my user page.

AND I am working on organizing the boat so when I take pictures to post on the blog it'll look like we are super duper sailors and always keep the boat seaworthy. HA!

Mendel 1.0 bought me a lifebook laptop for an early anniversary gift (May 14th! 14 years! 14 grey hairs. 14 new wrinkles. Coincidence? I think not) and I am loving it. Now I can write without waiting for a kid to get off the computer. It fits in my purse too... and it's cute just like... hmmm... little lady bugs? It's really small and makes me look like Sasquatch surfing the internet. But a very happy Sasquatch! And one that will be updating the blog more often now!

OH... and I have a new visor also. I think my honey is spoiling me. I'll have nothing left to complain about! (give me a week!) So off I go to buy more coffee, assuming Joanne hasn't dumped the pots for the day.

I haven't updated lately!

Really, We are doing fine. I just haven't logged in and updated for awhile. I had the MRI done on my head. My follow up is tomorrow so I will log in and update tomorrow or Tuesday. I am just really busy right now but, I haven't forgot about the blog.
