This week started the first week of our school. I wasn't able to start as early as I would like but we finally got started and I was happy to begin a new routine. J is working through Sonlight Core B + C combined. Our first week was hectic but it's good to be back!
For Bible, J and Kaleb learned about the parable of the lost coin. While listening to the reading, J and Kaleb colored a sheet that came with the curriculum.
She started her first week lessons with Learning Language Arts through Literature. This is new and I hope to get her able to do this independently. It covers a variety of language arts activities. This week, she learned about nouns, adjectives, wrote sentences, and worked on sight words.
J is reading through a Bible Story book, one story every day. Kaleb and Mouseys joined in for the story of Adam and Eve. I may not be doing all of the language arts activities in the Core manual but I do like the her reading through this book.
J began her math workbook - reviewing concepts from last year. She's smiling - it must be a good day. We read about early civilizations and learned about Judaism.
Thursday was Science experiment day. I decided that I would bring Kaleb in on the science fun. He is discovering what "sticks and doesn't stick."
We worked through the experiments, played the sock matching game, and then watched the Science video. I am hoping to have Kaleb join in on our Science experiments every week. He definitely likes to be part of everything! It was a good week. I am glad to be back to school, with a schedule of sorts. Hope your week went well.
