& Workboxes Are a Go!

Happy Happy Happy.  I love this idea!  The idea of workboxes is to have everything ready to go in drawers for the children so that you can work down the line (or out of order) to complete everything for the day.  I searched for workbox cards but didn't want to print out several sheets to cut a few from each of them...so I just made my own.

Here is the free printable (completely editable)

I printed, laminated, cut, and stuck them on the drawers we will be using.  

Savanna was excited to put her workbooks in the drawers!  She put together their pencil boxes and put them in the bottom drawers.  She was begging for us to start today!  She is worried that it is going to be hard.  Love her heart!  I plan to have something in all of Avery's drawers so that if she will have something to do if she is interested.  I do not plan to force her to do any of it, but I am sure she will want to tag along with her sister.  She has her own curriculum ready to go as well.  We will be starting over on hers, as we did 2 weeks of it earlier this year.  They will both be doing Heart of Dakota curriculums.   

Here is our planner for Unit One.  I have pretty much just combined the two teachers manuals into one spreadsheet so I can cross stuff off as we go.  :)

A Few More Bs

I wanted to do a few more B's, mostly just to do the crafts and have them as keepsakes.  I also really wanted to do the butterfly one because its so stinkin' cute.  

So, here is Avery's taped "B".

Savanna wanted to practice her "B"s too. :)

And here's the cute butterfly craft I wanted to do.  I got this grand idea off of  Crystal & Co.

And here is Savanna's butterfly. I'll take more picture tomorrow when the sun is shining through them.  

And a little game time before bed.

Letter C starts tomorrow!  :)

Week 2 Letter B

We are starting off this week with a "B" on the floor.  Avery uses this all week long.  Every time we are looking at a letter she points to the letter on the floor.  

Avery did a great job drawing her lines!

Letter "B" Collage with beans.

While Avery and I were working on her letter and number worksheets Savanna was working on her Math U See. I didn't even ask her, she just said she wanted to do school too.  Her preschool is on a 2-hour delay today so we all got to do it together.  

Where We Get Our Printables

For Avery's curriculum we are mainly doing the Heart of Dakota preschool curriculum, Little Hands to Heaven.  I am mixing in a lot of other printables to reinforce the letters, numbers, shapes, and colors.  

We are doing the animal letter of the week, which is from 1plus1plus1equals1

The number apple tree (on the right) is from ABCJesuslovesme

The shapes worksheets are from 1plus1plus1equals1

Letter collage printables are from Confessions of a Homeschooler

Savanna's math worksheets are from Math U See

Thank you too all the hardworking ladies offering their beautiful work for free!  <3
