I actually accomplised my first week of homeschooling. Even though it was a pre-preschool curriculum. It was still homeschooling. The kids enjoyed every minute of it. We learned about the letters A & B, numbers 1 & 2, calves, cows, jungles, and vines. Our shape of the week was square and our color was green. Crayola makes window markers so I used our sliding glass doors as a 'chalkboard'. We wrote the letter and numbers and words we learned on the window - of course in green. This way all week they were able to see it and whenever I would say where's the number 1?, they would run to it and point to it. They also had fun just scribbiling on the windows. We also made a trip during the week to the library and got books on cows and jungles. Giana was sitting reading to Julian as I was looking for the books we needed. It was too cute. Well, I'm just thankful for letteroftheweek.com and a few of my favorite blogs for all the info and resources I needed to pull this off. Some points were challenging like my patience level. I pray I'll learn to use the patience that i've been given. Overall it was fun, interesting and educating.
In one of the pictures above, the kids are playing with a wooden square (our shape of the week) matching game. Giana figured out to put 4 squares together to make 1 big square. I was pretty impressed. I pray their hearts and minds will love learning.
