We got our paperwork from the State of North Carolina and we have begun. The girls continue to help plan future trips to France, Italy, and Australia and perhaps England. Their first official project is to write about the cultural differences between France and the US. We'll post their writings in a week or two. Italian lessons start next week. Spanish starts back up in August.
They'll study Spanish, Italian, Algebra, Language Arts (American and British Literature), World Geography/History this upcoming year. We hope to add swim practice, soccer training, art classes, and cooking classes at a Charlotte restaurant as well. We have 4 field trips planned beginning in late August on alternating Thursdays. Let the adventure begin!
