UPDATE: Last year, we posted some of our plans for homeschooling over the summer, and we had lots of fun. This year, we plan to have just as much fun and figured that last year’s post is still a great place to start if you are trying to get ideas for your summer homeschool. Please leave a comment if you have any fun ideas to add to our list! Here is last years post:

Although we have agreed to take a totally laid-back approach to homeschooling this summer, we plan to continue learning. Our plan is to take a project-based approach with learning centered around field trips. Here are some ideas we are ‘exploring’:

• Beach trips
• Natural History Museum visit
• Fossil dig
• Build and launch model rockets
• Attend musical and theatrical performances
• Lots of fresh air and exercise
• Paint, draw, color, glue, cut, build, staple and tape as much as possible
• Read some really good books
