I am happy to say that I am posting straight from IP! How exciting for us! We just love being here.
We have come up to spend the week doing a Vacation Bible School. Although my passion is to educate the deaf children, the most important part of that education is Jesus!!! So I am happy to spend the week doing just that.
I came across some new material that I would like to share with you. It's called Picture This! I have not been able to use it with my kids, but it looks like a lot of fun. Check it out. At the end of the year your child will have his/her own Bible notebook with visual reminders for each story in the Bible! Wonderful tool for the visual learner (aka our deaf kids!).
I also have been wanting to share with you about our trip to the ASDC conference at the Oklahoma School for the Deaf. It was awesome!! I met many neat people, including Rachel Coleman from Signing Time and the 2007/2008 Miss Deaf Texas. I listened to many great speakers and hope to highlight those one at a time in the near future. Stay tuned!

Summer Plans
Sorry for the pause in entries, but Summer is almost upon us! Are you ready?? Every summer we are bombarded with things to do, places to see, and people to visit. Where are you going this summer?
As homeschoolers schooling doesn't stop just because it is June. We keep doing our school work, but we also take advantage of the summer reading programs and camps available. Most reading programs are free to participate in, as they should be. Here are a few:
Half Price Books
Pizza Hut Book It
Book Adventure
Barnes & Noble's
Borders Reading Challenge
And don't forget to check your local library. Last year my kids earned free tickets to the circus through our local library! It was exciting!
There are also many camps available during the summer. Check your state deaf school and see what they have going on in the summer. Here in Texas, TSD always has some fun up their sleeve!
We are blessed to be attending ASDC Conference in Oklahoma!! We are so very excited.
And don't forget all the things IP has planned! There is so much to do - don't miss out!
These are all great events to get our kids around positive deaf adults and deaf friends.
