Well today was our first day back to homeschooling and over all went really well for having to get back into a new routine and doing it on top of running chidcare too!
I think the hardest part was the fact that my 2yr old think she's cute enough to climb up on the table and try to write on everyone else's work lol
We did some studying on nature and birds today and the kids of course were most interested in the birds that had mohawks like them haha
One of our projects assigned was to make a nature journal out of sticks outside, rubberbands and paper! The kids really liked this and thought it was super neat!
we also did some studying about dinosaurs today as well. Of course they are two different grades but with science and history they seem to get a lot out of learning them together and just over lapping them.
Played a few new games as part of our match assignment today and got to see what areas Aidan is really needing help on more but surprisingly some of the things complained about on him he wasn't doing bad at all on. I think a little more focus and one on one attention with him and he will be fine.
Of course that was just part of our day today. We had more of a low key today as we got started and back into our routine with everything.
I'm really pleased with lesson pathways so far though and really love that everything is just laid out for me and ready to go! Can't wait to go for our 2nd day back to homeschooling tomorrow!
