As I was looking through local Libraries that would host classes for Teens which can be used in Homeschool. I found out Weatherford Public Library offers a section dedicated to Homeschooling Classes. For us Weatherford is about a hour away from our home.
If we left early that morning we could stop in Weatherford for breakfast and tour the Town turning this into a Field Trip. Then we could venture into the Library to check out all the Homeschool Resources. Then venture back into the Town for lunch and more exploring before heading home.

Gameschooling
Video available on our Facebook page.
Want to bring a little joy into learning? Gameschooling is a great tool to cement concepts and bring fun to your family’s day. Emphasizing learning through play, gameschooling provides educational and life skills like interpersonal communication, critical thinking, cooperation, and you can focus on specific topics that need practice. Whether using as core curriculum or supplementing, gameschooling may be just the thing to encourage your child through positive interaction. The experience-based approach also strengthens retention. Homeschooling really can be all fun and games!
