What are they doing now?  -- http://blog.bravewriter.com/2013/04/25/what-are-they-doing-now-caitrin/

“Just a couple days ago, Caitrin made a great comment about homeschooling. She said she’s realized that the main thing she got from her home education is a craving to learn. She told me that she measures herself by how much she’s learned, not by grades, not by meeting requirements. She knows that’s different than many of her peers and she credits homeschool with that quality.”

New idea… do you think it will fly? Suggestions/feedback?

Recess = a temporary withdrawal or cessation from the usual work or activity; break.

I invite you to come to RECESS in (my town) on Wednesday's at the  Park from 1pm to 3pm.
