This yahoo group is just amazing!! These moms started putting this stuff together years ago. It is a summer school type program but there is so much it would be easy to use all year long. I have decided to change it up instead of the summer school I call it Hogwarts Distance Education. The plan is that my kids will be doing school Hogwarts style every Friday. Besides the welcome group with tons of stuff they also have many other classrooms.
Moms have even created mock up text books for things and stuff for kids young and older. The time that went into this is just amazing. I wish I had that kind of patience and computer skills! Here are some links to the other classrooms.
Be sure to check them all out they are just so very neat!

Welcome to Hogwarts Distance Education, I hope you enjoy seeing our fun as much as I have had in the planning of it. Setting up my schoolroom has always been a big fun deal to me. I do rea;lize that the children are getting older, themes are kind of wasting away for them but I wanted just one more. Just one more big thing before they are just too old to really have fun with it anymore.
The idea started with a few posters and a yahoo group. Then of course we had to have a Honeydukes and before you knew it the kids had thrown around ideas, I saw Harry Potter parties online and this little idea has taken on a life of its own. Because like me my children have to go all out so to speak!
