Homeschool is a misnomer. Sure we do math here, and grammar and some science, but a lot of the best stuff happens outside of home, from private art classes, to hanging with the other Urban Homeschoolers, searching for squirrels in the park, or fine-tuning the art of rotating a tire swing - learning is everywhere. Here are a few highlights from the past week, from everywhere but "home" school:

| After lamenting the removal of his beloved roadwork LED signs, Liam learns to read them for the "ending date" of the work |
 |
| Dad and Liam play at trench warfare in the newly excavated front lawn, during our landscaping project |
 |
| Liam grabs a pair of binoculars and we feed squirrels in the park across the street |
 |
| He used to need someone to wind him up, now he's figured out how to get himself to really spin |

| Working with his new oil pastels to re-create this flower |
