Melanie Started School TOO!

Kyle started school & so has Melanie! 5 minutes here, 5 minutes there. Slowly but surely we'll get into some sort of routine of "organized" learning. It's gonna be FUN! Melanie really enjoyed setting up our year round calender yesterday. Everyday we will check it out, grab the appropriate # for the day of the week (#'s learning), talk about what day it is (learning days of the week), review the month & season that we are in. I don't know if we'll actually "discuss" the weather, but we'll see.
Sunday, while at work,I made a weekly Lesson Plan for her. This week we'll focus on tracing letters A & B, tracing #'s 1 & 2, learning to color inside a picture, & some kind of Art project-painting, glueing, & or cutting something. And working with Playdough-which I soon hope will be MOON SAND! Melanie can already write the letters "H", "L", & "N". So, we'll keep going. We're not going to do anything fancy or formal. We'll just turn some of our play time into "organized" play time.
I'm so excited to be doing this with Melanie!!! I can't wait to see how much she learns!



Sorry about the shadowed pictures. We set this up under the bar.
