The C. family is currently using some ideas from Brightly Beaming Resources to help add a bit more structure to get through the approaching cold winter days. For 26 weeks they will recognize a theme, shape/color, number, and letter with a corresponding field trip.

ReplyDeleteHi Jennifer, I am a friend of your moms and have home schooled some of my kids, some of the time. A few resources I loved when my kids were little were: Teaching your Children Joy, by Linda and Richard Eyre and the Five in a Row series - there is one for younger kids. What a fun time in your young ones lives!
