Today our "school" started. I started curriculum with the kids! We did a little calendar time, checked the weather, sang some songs, read a book, and had some play time. They had fun, and so did I. I do miss the "teaching" part of teaching. I do lots with Adda, but this was an organized lesson! She totally loved it! When Gonzo came home for lunch she started singing the songs and showed him the weather chart. I am looking forward to doing this with her. She is smarter than I give her credit for! She gets that from her Daddy! I love watching her little mind tick away! I got my curriculum a while back from a blog called
Confessions of a Homeschooler. I learned about her from my cousin Suzanne. If you haven't checked it out do! This lady was a genius to put all this together and sell it! I am using it as a basis and then added and taking away a few things. Here are a few pictures from our morning!
A little bit of pretend play after circle time. They stacked the boxes and sang happy birthday. Then ate the pretend cake!
We had a friend stop by today to play for a while! Thanks Becky for bringing Ibbie by! We enjoyed him very much!
Way to go!! I think you will get hooked on homeschooling. We sure love it! You will be amazed at how rewarding it is to get to see your kiddos learn and blossom every day. Your setup looks great!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I am hooked! I love it, and so does Adda! I want to do more with the set up. You'll have to send me pics of your classroom/learning area!
