Homeschool Resource Jerry’s Artarama

As Charlie and I work on next week’s Homeschool Lessons, Charlie asked if we would be able to do some Art Classes. I was stumped As I just cannot draw. I’m not good at coming up with projects. I thought there had to be a way for Charlie to be able to do Art Lessons, without me having Kerry come over as she has been busy.

I sat down and searched the internet and just about when I was ready to give up, I received an email from Click Schooling. Inside it was the information below about Jerry’s Artarama, and even though it says Grades 3 through 12., Charlie is eight so we sat down and looked through the site, and I think with mine and David’s help there will be projects David and I will be able to help Charlie.

I am excited for Monday to come as I want Charlie to sit down with me and to watch some videos from Jerry’s Artarama and help me make a supply list. On Friday, we can do a couple of the art projects and see how Charlie likes them. If it is something Charlie wants to keep using in our Homeschool.

I hope Jerry’s Artarama the classes are free and for us right now there is no extra money to pay for Art Classes or even supplies will be hard to come by although I think David’s mom will help with that. I also know if God provided the website for us, he would help us secure the supplies we need.
