Hi friends! I’m back with another What’s in the Workbox Wednesday post. Except that it’s Tuesday…so…whatever. I’m sharing it anyway! Today I’m showing you my 7th grader’s workboxes so you can see what he does each day.

Options: We participate in a once a week options program through our local school district. They offer a variety of classes that help supplement our homeschooling. It also provides the kids with a fun day where they get to see their friends and participate in a classroom environment. For more information you’ll need to contact your local school district to see if they offer an options program for homeschoolers.
Here is a list of his classes this year:
- PE
- Robotics

- Choir
Links mentioned in the video:

And that’s it for our 7th grade curriculum line up this year! We’re trying some new curriculum this year, so that’s always exciting, and so far we love everything!

I hope this helps some of you out, I know getting started can be overwhelming! I wrote a book called Homeschooling 101 that will help answer all of your questions on how to get started homeschooling, choosing curriculum, creating lesson plans, etc. For more information on homeschooling check out my Homeschooling 101: A guide to getting started!

How nice that your local school district is friendly to homeschoolers!
What ages is rainbow science typically for?
They have different levels and the ages are listed on their website. This one is for ages 12-14.
Hi Erica – Now that the school year is over, how did you end up liking the Rainbow Science? Will you be using it again this upcoming school year? Thanks! Robin
Hi Robin,
I have a review coming soon, but we did like it and plan to continue using it next year 🙂
