What do you guys think about starting a weekly "Check-In" thread?

You can simply type out what you learned, a project you did, a field trip you took, that kind of thing.

You can post a favorite picture or you can post your blog link. As much as I love sharing what we're learning, I love hearing about what YOUR families are doing even more!

If you like this idea, what would you say to starting our weekly check-In's on Thursdays? You don't HAVE to post on Thursday but those doing a 4 day week can get it going and then you have all weekend?

We are FAMILY! :wink:

I think this is a great idea. I love to read about other families and see pictures of what you all are doing! Maybe we could have a separate folder for this?

Sounds like fun! :D I normally do a week in review on my blog on Fridays. I will just post a link to it under the check-in thread.

Thanks for the great idea Mary!

Great idea! I'm :oops: but I'll tell anyway....I've been trying to post a pic for 2 days!!
So I will probably just have a description until I get my brain wrapped around photobucket.

I just realized today is Thursday....

Mary Great Idea!

I had to laugh :lol: because I remember these threads from Winter Promise as well.

For those of us Olive's that need a reason to talk this is perfect but you might not be able to get us to stop talking :shock: .

Great idea girls! :D Do you want a separate folder for this or do you want to keep it on the main board?

Blessings,

Carrie,

I would love a separate folder if we could? Maybe we could move the thread started today over? THANK YOU for always being so gracious and helpful :P

I vote for a separate folder. Mostly because it would be easer for people who are looking at the program for the first time. :wink:

Ok I am thinking I could be on board as long as it does not involve blogging. :roll: And I need you all to explain to me how you get the pictures in the post and do it real simple so you do not confuse my poor brain. :lol:

Sounds wonderful ladies! We'll put a folder up for that purpose under the Main Board! 8)
