Back to Homeschool Blog Hop with the Homeschool Review Crew

I am super excited. This will be my fourth Back to School blog hop with the Homeschool Review Crew. I remember when I participated in my very first hop with the Crew it was so very exciting.  Next week I will be joining my team mates as we share some insights on a different topic each day.

• Curriculum (Physical and Digital options for your family, what we will use, extra resources, manipulatives)
• School Supplies (Best products for the job, Must have stationary, I can't homeschool without ... )
• Planning / Record Keeping (lesson planning, daily schedules, Record Keeping, Routines, planning to use my space creatifively,)
• Outside the Home (co-ops, support groups, part time school, apprenticeships, training, fitting in the extra's)
• Dear Homeschool Mom ... (A letter of encouragement for the year ahead)
