Week 10 ABCJLM

As mentioned in the last post, I revamped our learning boards a bit. It was always my intent to have the primary four areas of preschool learning - letters, number, colors and shapes-in laminated flashcards hanging from the pushpins on binder rings, and viola week 10, I did it! :-S I have added one more card to each board for more LOTW focus: on one is an exercise card with the actions organized alphabetically and the other is the appropriate tracing card. I kept the main learning poster the same, although I am right now in the midst of trying to consolidate or make a combined one for our upstairs learning area. These cork boards hanging in our breakfast area which is where we do most of our book reading so wiggly boys are somewhat tame and quiet. On that topic, I'm in the search for a front facing wood book shelf so I can reclaim some valuable counter real estate space ;-)

Books of the Week recommended in the curriculum:

Bible resources

Number, Letter and popular Preschool

Memory Verse, Christian Values and Character Trait

Prepared should the questions come up, but at 2 and almost 4, they aren't looking around and comparing what other people do. Thank goodness! (They did not ask anything this year)

 Additional homeschooling resources we picked up via Facebook garage sale sites. Must exercise self control at times to stay with in our monthly budget, since there's good finds at great savings.

#1 Reason we homeschool. My husband's work schedule is unpredictable. For instance he went in late two days this week and worked until after the kids were in bed, if they'd been off in preschool in the morning, this would never have happened:
