So our first week of homeschooling is going fantastic!! This week was also A's first Dance Class! She had a blast, and was SUPER cute in her outfit! She was so excited she came home and was hopping all over the living room showing me her dance moves! They did 1/2 hour of ballet and 1/2 hour of tap. Everyone in her class are Christian homeschoolers! It was even a great time for myself to be able to meet other Christian mom's who are also homeschooling.
We also started the book "Teach your child to read in 100 easy lessons" It took us 2 days to get through the first lesson, but we made it through. We will probably have to go slower than I anticipated although I knew that was going to probably be the case. The first lesson talked about the sound for the letters M & S. We also practiced writing the letters too!
Today our devotional was about getting to know God by reading his Word, and praying. We did a HUGE heart craft, where we cut out a heart, and made a pocket on the front. We put the verse "Thy Word have I hid in my heart" on the front and the girls got to decorate it. At the end of each week we will write their bible verse on paper and stick it in the pocket of the heart, and hopefully they will have the verse in their heart as well.
Our Theme this month is ALL ABOUT ME! Family, friends, pets, etc.....We are starting that off with a Family tree. One day we did the tree branches and tree trunk. One day we did the leaves, tomorrow we will probably do more leaves and then paste the pictures on top of the leaves as we talk about our family.
