Homeschooling begins

We began homeschooling the boys the end of August. Our first unit is "all about me." The boys enjoy learning about their bodies, what makes them unique/different, where they live etc.


Playing ABC hopscotch. William had to say each letter and then come up with a word for the letter that his rock landed on. I was impressed with some of his words. For F he said "fish, flat, and finally." His G words were "giant, grateful." Matthew and Samuel just had to say the letters.

 This activity was also helpful for their motor skills. We've been trying to get Matthew to hop on one foot but he's still more comfortable hoping on two feet. Samuel just walked to get his rock, said the letter then walked back. Oh and Samuel wasn't wearing pants cause he wasn't feeling well and just wanted to stay in his pjs.

 They loved being outside and playing. I loved that they were learning while they played!
