So we are finally starting our schooling this fall. With our vacation I didn't want to start before we left and I wanted to get back and into the normal routine before we started so here we are on day 2 and we haven't accomplished a bunch. Yesterday we hit the library for all of their D books and Dinosaur books. The Natural Science Museum has their exhibit on Dinosaurs so I figured this was a great place to start. I also printed out some color sheets and a few counting sheets.
I'm very excited to get started! I have official school time on the daily calendar and tomorrow will be our first day using it. I plan to spend 2 weeks on each theme.
On the schedule this week. Feeding ducks at the park.Going to the museum to see dinosaurs. Talking about Daddy and making special projects for him. Coloring pictures of deer, dolphins, dogs, dinosaurs.... I was trying to find some matching activities with the d sound or some counting activities online but didn't have much luck. Trying to decided if I want to make my own for this theme or just wait and start making a more in depth plan for our next theme...pumpkins!
I would love to have some suggestions from more experienced mom's about where to go to get cheap or free preschool activities. Being new at this I'm just not sure about all this. That's one of the reasons we are starting so early. I want to be very prepared and into a routine by the time that Rex has reached official schooling age. I know lots of things to do with him when he's older (like 4 and 5) because that was what I taught before he came along. Now it's time to research out the younger activities, find a homeschooling group that can help support us and give us ideas.
I'm very excited to get this going and I will be more and more involved in planning as we go along. This month just surprised me with how quick it came.
Sorry for the not very thought out post. Just decided to sit down and write it up really quick. Hopefully future posts about homeschooling will be more thought out.
