Spring-Like Week

Even though it isn't actually spring, we enjoyed the spring-like weather we had this week!

We did some spring cleaning inside 

and enjoyed playing outside!

 

Focus on the Basics

#1 worked hard this week on the basics! He had a great attitude, doing what I asked him to do. We've gotten in a good routine. He knows handwriting, math, and reading will happen everyday, no matter what. Because the weather was so pretty this week, we focused on those areas and then played outside at much as possible!

Building numbers with Math U See.

Working through phonics.

Batman and his latest invention patiently waited until he was done with school time.

Yay for smiles!

Circle, Circle, Circle

#2 entertained himself while I was making lunch one day. I heard him repeat, "circle, circle, circle. . ." as he drew on his paper. He did a great job holding his pencil correctly and trying to go round and round! He also liked naming colors and lining up all the pencils. #2 also enjoyed spending lots of time outside this week with the warm weather we had. On Saturday, we'll share pictures of us enjoying the sun this week!

 

This Week

 Playing with Buzz and Woody.

 Launched my editing website & released a new e-book!

 Crazy hair night at Awana.

 Birthday card from my sister.

 Lots of time outside this week in the beautiful weather! Next week is supposed to be even warmer.

Fun birthday!

Super Heroes & New Rocks

#1 said some of his lessons were getting boring, so we did a Spider Man math workbook this week and got super hero stickers to put on his very best work. Those helped make school time a little more fun!

He is making great progress on his handwriting! We've been having to go slowly in math because even though he was able to do the addition and subtraction, he was having trouble writing the numbers. I think we're ready now and will fly through some of our Math-U-See pages.

We went to a local park that has lots of animals (that are stuffed) and trails to hike. #2 stayed home with Daddy so #1 and I could go with friends. We had lots of fun climbing a "mountain" and finding new rocks for #1's rock collection. The weather was beautiful for an afternoon outside!
