Countdown: 4 days!

Yay!  I am so excited about next week. We will be officially starting both the girls curriculums.    Little Hands to Heaven for Avery and Little Hearts for His Glory for Savanna.  We are starting early because 1) I am excited about it 2) we have all had a break from preschool, 3) I will have a break from my schooling soon, and 4) I want to be ahead of the public school system.  We will be taking a week off here and there since we are starting early, but I don't want to go for too long (say 3 months during the summer) or I feel that the girls will lose some of what they have learned. I also want to create an environment where learning is fun and interesting, and not something that is only done on September through June, weekdays, from morning to afternoon.  So anyways, just a heads up that we will be starting in 4 days!  :)

Oh, and Avery will be starting over completely....so there will be a lot of repeats!

Avery's First Day!

Obviously, our first week of school is the letter A.  We are also focusing on the color red, circles, and the number one.

After reading our bible we talked about how God said "let there be light," and there was light.  So we drew on a white piece of paper with white crayon and then painted over it with black watercolor.

We are using the Heart of Dakota preschool curriculum, Little Hands to Heaven.  I am also adding in my own mixture of "letter, number, color, shape of the week"
