Car Schooling and a Day Out

I had to make a trip out of town today.  I took the girls with, and we made a day of it.  Laura did car-schooling, and accomplished nearly everything.  She aced her spelling (Word-Building) pretest.

We went out to eat, which is a treat for us.  We bummed around some stores.  We had a nice day.

The good thing about ACE is that it is very portable.  Laura grabbed her booklets and the books she is reading, and off we went.  I think it gave me a glimpse that we don't necessarily have to stay home to do school.  For so long, taking everything with us was a chore.  Now, it was quite simple.  Oh, we didn't get to our read aloud or coloring page like I planned.  However, we have tomorrow.
