Image
Last week a lot of schools were doing S.A.Ts, not us! There was a thing going called #NotDoingSatsWeek for home educators, so all last week we (Me, Alicia, Nikki, Luke, Emma [their mum] and my nan... have I missed someone? Oh, yeah, and also Jess) were doing something.  On Monday we went to the Cinema to watch "Alvin and the chipmunks road Chip"... UGH, I hated it! On Tuesday we went to Clifton park  museum... yeah, that's all... I was grumpy at the time so I didn't take much notice of what was going on. Look out!!!! A Jess and a Nikki with a gun are more deadly that the navy!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH, RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!!!!!! On Wednesday we went to Wednesday group which was the usual boring (we did make a glitter globe though, mine failed :( ) Until the end where I threw a tantrum... a good week so far!!!! Now, on Thursday we actually did something interesting!! We went to Roche abbey! That was ok, I climbed mostly though, until we were told to stop...

On Wednesday I was taken to a HE meeting with Alicia, Nikki and there little brother Luke! This is the first time in ages that i have gone to a HE meeting, and it was pretty good timing as well..... THEY WERE MAKING BISCUITS!! Me and Alicia were one of the first to do them! as well as that I played minecraft with a boy who kept on KILLING me!!! the first time he said it was because he felt like but the second time it was because i wanted revenge!! >:( after that we started a war we both went digging for iron, i found the most but then i had to swap with someone decided to try and kill him with only iron boots and chest plate and din't bother mining so in the end he killed me with a full set of iron armor and an iron sword. On Thursday I went to the park for another HE meeting.We also took our dog (Freda, Freya still can't come out as she only had another operation just last week! ) with us as you can see on the photo below. Me and Freda! :) After the meeting we w...

Its my 8th week!!!!!

Today it is 8 full weeks since I was last in school. The reason for this is that I am now being home educated. So far it has been quite different and nowhere near as boring. I have learnt an awful lot more in a home ed day than in about 3 days in school and all of these things have been 10 times more exciting and interesting than school! I would highly recommend home education to anybody! Over these last few weeks I have learnt a ton of new things.  Here are some of the things I have done; I have visited  The University of Sheffield were we found out about bones that included handling REAL human bones! I've met up with plenty of lovely kids at the HE meetings I go to that were much better behaved than those in school! I played pool, table tennis and also mincraft on the Xbox one with them!  I've also been to connisborough castle were I made my way up to the top of the keep! I still need to wr...

Sheffield University !!!

Today we went to a university in Sheffield. to get there me, alicia and my nan got a train from Worksop to Sheffield, as the trams weren't working we had to walk the whole entire way to the university. We had to ask for directions about 3 times. when we got there we were waiting about for around 15 minutes for the rest of the group to come. I saw a HUGE python skeleton which I found both sad and fascinating:). After that we went into a science room where we were spit into 2 individual groups.  My group went to the museum first were we saw LOTS of interesting things like:   Brains!!! ^ A hedgehog split  half skeleton and half skin!!!^ a variety of  reptiles !!!^ a crocodile and turtle skull!!!^ And its amazing that EVERTHING in the museum  is real!!!!!!(except a gorilla hand , that was just a model!) After the museum we had lunch but then we had to wait about half an hour for the...

A Good & Very Bad Week

On Thursday the 11th of June, I went a home education group to the Harley gallery where we looked at the exhibit   ' necklace for an elephant and other stories ' by David poston  a jewellery  designer. I did a short workshop of photography where we experienced taking photos of other people wearing a variety of jewellery .   I had meant to do the above post on Friday, but due to the following incident it been delayed here is what happened: On Friday our youngest dog Freya was badly injured. I don't want to go into to much detail 'cos' of how awful it was, as we was about to set of to help my grandad find her 'cos' had gone missing we found Freya wating there ! She had made her  own way back but only to find most of her left side HAIR AND SKIN completely off reveling a HUGE wound:(  But on the good side she healing quite well and she is back home with us and on all sorts of medication ;) WHISH HER LUCK!!!...

First Home Ed. Meeting

Image
My first meeting went very well, i met a few children and they were very nice to me. I think i might of made at least one friend already, first i played a bit of pool with my nanny, she being older she won! then i played ping pong/table tennis. After, I played with my new friend for a bit outside on some exercise equipment. so yeah my very first meeting went excellent, an awful lot better than i thought. After we got home, I decided to watch a science video on how we breath. I learnt that artenes are vessels coming FROM your heart and veins are vessels going TO your heart. The size of your lungs is 75 square meters, wow thats alot of space! I've gotta go now and see if my chickens have laid any eggs:)
