Teach Your Children Well
My son and I cover so many topics of learning in any given week of homeschooling, it's hard to know just what sticks in his brain and what doesn't.
Today we were driving into Spokane when my son said, "The people who built this city must like the Vikings. There are two streets back there named Thor and Freya."
We had studied Norse myths several months ago in a brief literature unit. It does a teacher's heart good to know that his student is actually paying attention!

On a tenuously-related note, we've named our two guinea pigs Thor and Freya.
But also what boy will not listen if you tell him about the vikings? My son lap everything WW 2 up, gosh, he knows more history than me by now. But I know the feeling, same again for as a swimming teacher, once they swim that whole lap with a perfect stroke I wanted to say to all "I taught him that".
Congratulations teacher man!!
They're like sponges but often remember the most inconvenient things.
