The end is near!

Our first year of homeschooling is winding down. Kindergarten will soon be finished!

We will be finishing our Math curriculum next week and we will be finishing up Phonics within the month. We completed our Science curriculum last month. We're just reviewing basic Social Studies (address, phone number, parts of community, etc) while we finish up the remainder of our year.

Even though we are schooling year round, we are feeling those "can't sit still", "can't stay focused" end of the year excitements. And it's not just the girls either. I'm just as guilty. Excited about upcoming vacations, excited about new curriculum and beginning first grade...and getting a little bored and burnt out with our current curriculum. But we are still finishing the year strong, despite yet another case of strep throat for Shaylie. This makes the 5th time she's had strep since August! My poor sweet girl. She and Mommy have both had enough and we have an ENT consult in June...looks like a tonsillectomy is in her near future.

My husband and I are looking to do something special to celebrate the girls' Kindergarten graduation. We aren't part of a co-op and sadly don't have any homeschooling friends near us..so whatever we do will most likely just be a family event. I'm looking for suggestions. How did you celebrate your homeschooler's graduation from Kindergarten? I can't wait to hear your ideas!
