After going through the responses from our recent survey, it seems that some of you are interested in participating in our Summer Term(s). However, we are unsure if we will have enough students consistently to hold regular co-op classes.
Instead, we would like to propose an alternative to classes, allowing us to gather in a more fun and relaxed way throughout the summer.
On our calendar, we will post "Summer Activities" that will be held on certain Fridays between the hours of 10am and 1pm. Each time we meet, we can plan our destination for the next time we get together. We could meet for picnics in the park, go to the zoo together, visit a splash park, take a walk on a trail, have scavenger hunts for the kids, go bowling on a hot day, or come up with other fun ideas! The kids will get to play and enjoy each other in a less structured environment, which I am sure they will enjoy!
There won't be any registration for the Summer Terms and attendance will vary.
If an RSVP is necessary, one will be posted for that activity.
More than likely, though, it will be a 'come if you can' sort of thing!
So, join us May 9th for our first Summer Activity. We will have a Picnic in the Park at Big Lake Park in Council Bluffs. Location, dates, and details can be found on the calendar.
On another note, due to popular demand, we are having a Swap Shop this Friday, April 11th, during co-op classes.
However, we are changing it up a bit by requiring that you take with you any items you bring that are not swapped. We think this will eliminate the somewhat chaotic ending to what is otherwise a rather fun and exciting treat!
You know the saying, "One homeschooler's junk is another homeschooler's fancy new goodies." Ok, I made that up, but you get the idea... So, please feel free to share your goodies, but remember to carry out your unwanted items when you leave.
