Tot School

The big man(4 yr old) has gotten tired of the weekly letters, so we have changed things around and he is learning the letters a little more informally. He did a lot of coloring and playing with his army men(which he loves); also we added some sorting skills by letting him separate the different colors of army men. I found a great book that has puzzles in it, and he also does the puzzle that I found in the dollar section at Target. Also enjoyed lots of reading time.

Weekly Report

Did not take any photos this week; in addition to the many hats I already wear, I added nurse last week due to hubby not feeling well. We had a great week, even though hubby was sick, we continued schooling. All the subjects went great. The schedule is working out great; separating the older two for math is working out fabulously. Completed timelines, science and geography, grammar, spelling and vocabulary. I had been purchasing separate vocabulary, but I happened upon a FREE crossword maker, word jumbler and more to enhance our spelling called Word Learner. It is really great, all I do is plug in the words along with the definitions in Word, then copy/past in the program and it creates the crossword puzzle and more(have to save money where I can).

Back on Track

Well, I am back on track. I haven't posted in two weeks. Sweet hubby(child #4 he, he) has been very sick, so we have been schooling, but I haven't had much time to post what we have been doing.

Speaking of back on track... I have started walking again. I have decided, that it is a must that excerising is part of my "me time". I have some baby weight to lose(the baby is now 4 :-)). I must get more heart healthier. So I am going to post here every Monday to check in, and let this be my accountability for my "heart healthy progress".
