I am getting so excited for August! We've starting our homeschool Pre-kindergarten 2014-2015 school year on August 25, 2014! I am using a lot of material from Carisa over at 1+1+1=1. I'm am loving her Raising Rockstars Preschool program.
Pinterest has also be an amazing resource! I get on pinterest while I'm nursing to help pass the time. That site will definitely suck you in! There is a result for anything you could ever want to find!
I will be documenting our homeschool journey along the way. I hope that it will be a wonderful digital scrapbook of the school year.
I see a trip to ikea in my future for sure to get the dining room/ school room in class room shape!
I have a love/ hate relationship with the lesson planning stage right now. I have 1/36 done right now in terms of weekly lessons for Charlie.
I was going to plan our school week for Tuesday- Saturday since Daddy is off Sundays and Mondays but then I had a beautiful thought. I will absolutely have school on Mondays so that Daddy can teach too! I think it will be a great way to start off the school week if we are both involved. Also, not going to lie, it will be nice to share the responsibilities with someone else for that one day a week.
I have been doing tot school with Charlie since he was around 18 months. He asks to "do school". I've always done his school when Camber is sleeping. I don't know why, I have just used it as a way to keep him quiet I guess. This year I am including Camber! While Charlie works on Pre-k she will have her own tot school area! Her activites will coincide with Charlie's themes. I've also tried to choose things each day that they can both do together.
I'm going to work hard to keep up this blog throughout the school year.
