11th day of Homeschool

Today is the 11th day of home school..and I have spent the better part of the morning on the phone with Social Security...trying to understand why my son is not receiving his benefits..after all autism is a disability and having extra money to get Miles things to assist with his learning would be beneficial..But I learn that SSI  is based on the parents income..not the child's disability.. Anyway today I will have Miles listening to books on the Nook Color and doing apps..on the Ipad 2

Today is Miles 3rd day of Homeschool...and My husband and I think we need to concentrate on Miles Developing Language..Miles is 8 years old and still has limited language..he points and grunts..Even though when asked to say a word or the word to whatever he's pointing to he can clearly pronounce it..Trying to get Miles to Consistently use his word...Today Homeschool Started at 8:06-homeschool will end at 10:06..I will not homeschool Miles more than 2 hours a day..After 2 hours Miles gets really aggraviated..

FIRST DAY OF HOMESCHOOL..

Today is officially the first day of homeschool for Miles...It is 7:30 am and Miles is still sleeping..He woke up at 4am just morning and never got out of bed..but his eyes were wide open..I knew it would be like this when I saw that he was up so Early...This is OFFICALLY the start of my 3rd year Homeschooling Miles and I really hope it's more productive than the previous 2 years..which were very tough because I'm still trying to figure out what's the best way for Miles to learn..I  still think I can teach him better than any teacher..because I truly Love him so and want more than anything for him to have a productive life..
