Oct. 9, 2007 - ~All in a day's work....~
Things have been going well Paul Ryan asks to do school work through out the day and will do constant work for at least an hour with out getting to board. LOL I try to have things fun and also so Little sister can join in as well. today we studied letters "capitals" and "lowercase". I did notice he gets a little nervous when I ask what letter makes this sound .....I just tried to reassure him it's ok if it's not right we are just starting and he we had never looked at thee cards before.
Another thing I need to incorporate is scriptures into his lessons and I'm not real sure what kind are appropriate for him to learn and memorize. For now i'm just using the sheets he brings home from church.
Oh yea I declared Monday's the unschooling day, I have to much to catch up on from the weekend so we do what we feel like doing reading stories in between loads of laundry or after cleaning this bathroom or that one. This also gives the kids an opportunity to help do extra chores and get praise and rewards for helping out. (not that they don't normally get praise or rewards but I give a little extra hugging or more high fives and such, stickers piece of candy etc....)
