Announcements: Susan O.
Legoland has been rescheduled for November 8. If you
purchased tickets and will not be able to make the new date, please let Susan
know. There is a waiting list for those who would like to go, and another PSP
family may be able to purchase your tickets.
There was a flyer (3 pages) available with information
regarding the Sacramento field trip. This flyer was also e-mailed to you.
o
The trip will be two nights; this was a result
of the survey.
o
The dates are February 25-27. You have until
November 16, to sign up.
o
Round trip train tickets are $32. This is the
special price for the Kids and Trains program. Children under the age of three
will need a ticket at the regular price.
If you have a child under three, you will need to purchase one adult
ticket at the regular price since the child cannot travel alone.
o
Susan will reserve a block of rooms at the
Vagabond. However, you will need to call the Vagabond and reserve a room on
your credit card. The price for a room is $80 per night. This includes two
queen beds. Children may stay for free with the existing bedding, so you can
bring sleeping bags.
o
Please refer to the field trip flyer for the
itinerary/schedule for the field trip.
o
This is a walking field trip so you will need
comfortable shoes.
o
See page one of the flyer which outlines exactly
what you need to do for the Sacramento trip.
o
Page two of the flyer includes additional
information regarding lodging, Amtrak, and points of interest in Sacramento.
o
Page three has choices to consider for your free
time and for your meals.
General Announcements-Christine R.
Next week is make-up picture day. It will start at 8:15, and
the photographer will only be here for about an hour. Get here early and go to room
135.
If you have not completed a Heritage Page, please do so and
return to Christine R's mailbox.
Prayer sheets were in your mailboxes. They should be filled
out and brought back next week (October 26). Also, bring back your prayer partner’s
sheet from last month and return it to them.
Let them know you were praying for them.
Keep thinking about and planning for American Heritage Day.
It will be here soon.
When you bring dishes for the hospitality table, remember to
pick them up at the end of PSP.
Panel—Homeschooling with Toddlers
We all feel the pressure of getting everything done and not
ignoring are little ones.
o
There is no perfect day (Proverbs 16:19) .Be
thankful you have the privilege to homeschool. Take the time to enjoy it. It
will go by quickly! There is no
ideal/perfect homeschool mom. We all struggle, but God put your children in
your family for a reason.
o
Make quiet time a priority. Your days will go
better, and you will be more patient. Two important things children need to learn
are to love learning and to be independent. One way to achieve this is with the
work box system created by Sue Patrick. If you have questions, regarding this
system, you could ask Char M. (see separate attachment for more tips)
We were reminded during the discussion that as part of PSP
we are required to be members of Homeschool Legal Defense. If you are not a
member, you can visit the website HSLDA.org. Our group code is 296203.
o
Please refer to the document on practical tips
for homeschooling with toddlers. You may want to print it out and refer to it
for ideas.
