Family Studies 2017-2018

This is a list of the subjects we are studying as a family for the 2017-2018 school year.  This year we have two school-age students, a 3rd grader and a 1st grader, plus a rambunctious toddler running around the house.  We refer to this as our "Morning Time".  I'll update this page throughout the year.
