We're on day 3 and things are going well! I changed up my curriculum a little since I've posted last. Here's what were doing:
DD 5: Phonics, Handwriting, Reading - Abeka K5; Math - Horizon K
DS 3: Hands On Homeschooling 3; Speech - Kaufman Praxis Kit cards & sometimes Easy Does It Apraxia for fun speech activities.
Both: HOH 3 for Bible and Social Studies (circle time)
DD 5 really likes her new math and her phonics is definitely more interesting than last year! I went ahead and jumped ahead past all the review b/c she truly has it and doesn't want to review anymore. It puts us to week 40 in the plans. That really works out b/c we can skip a day of phonics/reading and just focus on handwriting and/or another activity for that day instead of all in one day.
DS 3 is doing well with the HOH readiness activities. There's a lot of fine motor activity already in the first week and he's doing great! He loves tracing/following the lines. I think letters start soon and he's going to get a kick out of working on those! |
