This is for all the homeschool mombloggers coming across my site.  I'm interested in making new friends (guess we all are) and would love your comments!  As well as tips for teaching a first grader boy who hates to do his school work (the writing practices/worksheets).  I don't want to push him, but at the end of the year he will have to do testing to see how he is doing against his peers.  I'm new to this whole thing.
