School is going well. Here is what we are doing...
This week in Little Hearts for His Glory so far we have read about
- God Sent His Son Jesus
- John Baptizes Jesus
- Jesus turns water to wine
We played a thinking game, did a Dramatic play, and did some art today. We painted on a white piece of paper with water and then dropped food color on it. Since we are on the 12th week, we are reviewing the memory verses from the previous 6 weeks.
We do a rhyme with motions each week. This week we are doing "Sent from God Above."
We do a writing activity each day and then read from a story book. We are reading about Danny Medow Mouse.
After this we do math using Math U See curriculum. We are in the Alpha book on Lesson 9, learning adding by 9. Nine always wants to be a ten. He is not only suppose to learn how to do it with the blocks but also learn the 9 facts. This is where he is having trouble so I picked 9 + 2 for today and tomorrow we will do a different one. So far he knows his:
He can solve for the unknown using the blocks. We are also doing the clock on Fridays.
For reading we are using the Progressive Phonics. We are on the short vowel sound "o". We have already read the short vowel books "i", "a" and "e". We are also reading some of the Headsprout books so he don't forget what he learned there. He still has some trouble sounding out but he is getting better. When we do some of the puzzles like the word search with the Progressive Phonics it helps him.
For extra we are learning Piano using KinderBach. Yes, WE are learning. I have wanted to learn piano for so long and so I will just learn right along with J.  This program so so cool. I like the way it is teaching. Right now we are just learning mostly to keep beats.
We are also using some of the math fact printouts from Homeschooling with Index Cards.
