We did a lot of this:

Once this plague vacates the premises, I promise to write a legit blog post. I have not been idle, though. Pop on over to Gifted Homeschoolers Forum and check out their fantastic resources, including a guest post by yours truly.
Tell me, how do you homeschool when the kids are sick? Share tips here!
Wishing you all a happy, healthy week!

It’s not that I feel that school is a good idea gone wrong, but a wrong idea from the word go. It’s a nutty notion that we can have a place where nothing but learning happens, cut off from the rest of life.
