What are we getting into?

We are all on track this morning and ready for learning.

This week we are adding Tot Trays for Chipmunk and Geography for Peanut.

We had a mini preview of tot trays yesterday and it was a hoot! He enjoyed counting finding his ABCs, and making the letters of his name. We are thankful to Carisa for the idea. You can visit her page here to learn more.

Today we will be adding cutting, painting, and 1-2-3 counting to his trays. He is working with a new distance learning curriculum as well and he his loving his two teachers. He has mastered all the letters in his name...now we just need to get them in the correct order! :-)

Peanut has a mini-preview of the 50 states as we take a year long road trip through our country! We begin with our nation's capital--D.C. He visited early this year and is excited to learn some new thing and read up on some of the landmarks he's seen. We chose the curriculum from Erica of Confessions, you can visit her site here.

Today we start unit 2 in all of our subjects. In math, we are learning place value, greater than/less than, expanded form, and rounding. Peanut is very excited about math! In Social Studies, we are planting and learning about farms, past and present.In English, we are working on how to use the thesaurus and dictionary.

I will check back in later today with updates of our day!

I have a class to attend this evening and all my "worthy" caretakers are unavailable, so off to class they go with me. This will be my first time taking them with me, so let's pray!
