I gave us a Pro-D Day today!
I took the boys to Miquelon Lake Provincial Park and we ended up at the Day Use area at the lake. And we were the only ones there....we had a huge playground and an entire beach to ourselves.
This is how I spent the majority of my day:
The boys got to play on a massive playground and beach, and I got to read some of a book I am finding very helpful in shaping my ideas and educational philosophy. It's called "Your Child's Strengths" written by Jennifer Fox, and I recommend that every parent read this book whether you homeschool or not. I am only a quarter of the way through the book, but so far it has put into words exactly how I feel about education and childhood but have been unable to express and thus unable to put into practice. I picked up this book at The Salvation Army Thrift Store of all places (one of my favorite places to shop).
Here's to professional development! It was the perfect day for it.
