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!

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!

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!

Mary Great Idea!
I had to laugh

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

Great idea girls!

Do you want a separate folder for this or do you want to keep it on the main board?
Blessings,
Carrie

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

I vote for a separate folder. Mostly because it would be easer for people who are looking at the program for the first time.
Ok I am thinking I could be on board as long as it does not involve blogging.

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.

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