Day 2, Sept. 3, 2014, started with the physics experiment of wood planks and balls at home. A family dog ran interference to illustrate the obstacles researchers can expect. At the house around the corner, I told a neighbor, Were on Day 2 of homeschooling, and we have a project everyday to find flowers. Shibli: We do? Uh, yeah. Okay, its my project. But wow what a house. We drove down Route 7 to discover the Sheffield, Mass., Colonel Ashley house in which former slave Elizabeth Freeman toiled and collected herbs. In the 18th century, she sued for her freedom with the legal aid of attorney Theodore Sedgwick, ancestor to actress Kyra Sedgwick. Who is she? Shibli asked. I told him she was famous. Mom the only people cool to our age are Bill Gates and The Oatmeal. Along the ride, Sherlock Holmes words inspired, and school lunch was Thai with frozen yogurt afterwards. Now, I get why homeschool parents are lobbying for tax rebates. Today, itll be hotdogs. Thank you all so much for your enthusiasm and incredible ideas. This journey absolutely doesnt feel lone anymore. Weve got a world of friends from whom to learn. Amazing. A new unit were developing: What Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag Taught Me About Sailing.
