Someone asked my husband if my teens have started AS levels yet given he had just recently told the person their IGCSE marks from June this year.
The answer?
“They’re writing two AS level subjects next month!” (That was last month!)
Yep, we dove straight into AS levels after only a two week break after exams. I’d wanted a six week holiday but by day mine, my son was already secretly studying. We began all four subjects but they quickly realised that to wait a year to write all four would be pointless for them as they were almost done with English and Geography.
So with great trepidation, I registered for exams before they were even done studying.
But they’re done. I am scared. A mom wrote how her daughter had been getting all As for IGCSE and past papers of AS levels but tanked big time. Only getting D’s in the exams.
I haven’t told my teens that. But I have told them not to be complacent.
We wish results didn’t take so long to come out! Tomorrow is it. The beginning of the end of my homeschool career with my oldest children.
I don’t know where we will go with my middle two. And my one twin-we’reooming at an autism centre with a waiting list so there’s no guarantee for next year… She is signing maybe once a week, but using signs that don’t match what she’s saying verbally.🤣❤️So my only hope and prayer is that we find a method of communication that meets her needs. That will be my goal for her ‘education.’ Next year will be therapy for all, that, I’m sure of.
I think one twin is going to be able do traditional home education. But it still feels like the beginning of the end. Plus, she IS only three years old. So I don’t know what will come in the future. I hope it’s My Father. But if not..let’s see!
Slowly, the time is coming when I’ll only have four children in my care…And for my teens’ sake, I hope it is soon. Cos that will mean they didn’t fail. 🙏🏾
And typical teen, my girl is excited that her brother will be taking them to go write. Though she did read to me that when it’s only teens in a car, the risk of accident goes up by 400%!🤦🏾♀️🫣
Yes, I’m grateful each time they get gone without mishap, like when they took three siblings with them to church this Sabbath.
They said I should write a book
