Mar. 24, 2009 - ?? Math Curriculum ??
Seeing as how this our first year homeschooling, we aren't very seasoned with the pros and cons of each curriculum. This year I am using Saxon 1 for Math with Mason (5 1/2 yrs. old.) I feel Saxon reviews too much for him. We are choosing between 1. Singapore Math 2. Math U See or 3. Horizon Math for next year. I'd love to hear anyone's opions/experiences with these.
For the past 6 weeks I have been doing lessons with our 4 year old, Payden. I am following the ABC Jesus Loves Me curriculum. He has thoroughly enjoyed it, and is making huge strides in learning. I also attribute this to him turning 4. Here's some of the fun activities we've been doing to teach him his letters.
Play-Doh letters
Drawing letters in sand or salt--here we used couscous.
Letter matching games involving cutting, matching and glueing.
Daddy had the weekend off and took the boys to an open space in our neighborhood to fly their new kite. It took a while, but once they got it up it was quite hard to get down.
