We are still fine tuning this, but here is what we are working on for now:
Daily
Bible
Character
Memory work
Math
Handwriting
Phonics
Poetry
Read Aloud
Sign Language
Play outside!
We do this Monday to Friday. My husband's day off is Monday so we may drop something in order to spend more time with him. Our lessons are very short so we can still play and do other things.
Added to the daily subjects are:
Monday
Art Appreciation - How to use Child-size Masterpieces
Music
Tuesday
World History - History Stories for Children, by Dr. John W. Wayland
Art - practical
Wednesday
Nature Study - Read from Christian Liberty Nature Reader or My Big Backyard Magazine. Also look up that which interests us on the internet.
Thursday
American History - Abeka, My America
Music
Friday
Nature walk
Personal Journal - dictate to mom
I have mentioned before that we began two weeks early so that we could ease into things. This has worked out well. The first week we just did the basics: Bible, character, math, handwriting, phonics, read aloud (which included poetry). During week two we added nature study, art appreciation and history. I still want to add in music and sign language. We have not made an entry in our personal journal yet. I may do this later today so I can have her first impressions of this school thing we are doing!
To keep records I am using Lindafay's idea. Click here and let her tell you about it. She also has a link to a blank copy that you can print out. It is very simpe and easy. I like that!
Remember - these lessons are SHORT! Usually 15 minutes. Except for phonics, it takes a little longer to sound everything out! |
