We started school on Sunday! Mike was preparing to take Kayla to the airport to see her off to PA and Maddie was heartbroken about not being able to tag along. I offered to start school a day early as a distraction and it was just the thing she needed! Today will be our 3rd day and so far we both love it!
So far we have done a math lesson each day, reviewed phonics and practiced reading short words, practiced writing. We are also studying Animals in their World, a curriculum offered by Winterpromise. We've learned about various animal senses, movement, and skeletons and we've read the first chapter in a book called Red Dog, by Bill Wallace.
Soon we will be starting a unit on the African Savannah and I will be adding some geography and American History lessons as well.
Nicholas and I are working through Winterpromise's I'm Ready To Learn preschool curriculum as we have time but I am beginning to realize that we won't take full advantage of all this program has to offer until he's a bit older. He just turned three last month, so this will probably work better next year.
