storm days in your homeschool, do you take them?

Good morning !


There is yet another storm day here for public school. It is freezing rain out there, and when I went out to feed our chickens, quail, and turkeys this morning everything was covered in a thin layer of ice.


We are not taking a storm day, in fact my kids don't even realize it's a storm day, they aren't usually up when the bus goes by in the morning to realize it didn't go by.


Instead of a storm day we are doing math as usual, there is baking happening, someone is working on French lessons, and I am fighting the urge to go back to my warm bed. I do think we'll be watching a documentary shortly, I just need to decide what we'll be watching.

If You Do Want to Take a Storm Day Learning Ideas:

  • watch documentaries
  • read aloud
  • head out for an adventure on foot
  • baking/cooking day
  • do science experiments


We have both baking and documentaries on the schedule for this storm day. You can easily take a storm day without loosing a day of learning. the beauty of homeschooling is learning is always happening.
