We decided to name our school to add personalization and a bit of fun.
After we convinced Lil' Ed that Batman School was possibly to the best choice, we went with Roots to Fruits Academy. I love this name because it represents how Lil' Ed is going from baby to mature adult too quick. Ed thinks it leaves too much room for criticism.
We have a mascot and school colors too! Picking the colors was fun. We each picked two colors we liked, wrote them on a paper and placed them in a hat. The guys then each picked out a paper. The results: Purple and Green. We talked with Lil' Ed about what a mascot is and what our mascots were in school. First Lil' Ed was surprised that I went to school exclaiming: "You went to school, mommy"? Then he declared his mascot would be a squirrel.
I can't wait to start school with him. We are doing a year round school and we will begin in July. We are using an Eclectic approach mixing Classical with Charlotte Mason.
A few goals this year include:
Stay on schedule and complete our programs
Attend more field trips (at least attend when I reply 'yes')
Take lots of pictures using my new Nikon
Have fun and most important enjoy this little guy.
