Our homeschooling adventure has begun. School reconvened last Wednesday, in my local area. Of course, Jamayia had had a super late night on Tuesday and chose Wednesday to sleep in. So, homeschool started for her last Thursday, at a light pace. Things seem to have gone pretty well. She’s ahead of where I thought we’d be, which sounds good to me.
This week, the pace increases. She looks forward to her “schooling” as she calls if, often asking me to teach her more things. She has given me a new name: “Teacher Mom”, which she uses during our lesson time. We’re currently working on phonics and math. We also do some Bible time each day, and do some singing. This week, I’m planning to add science into the mix.
I’m planning to do a post about our curriculum in the very near future. This is a neat age to be homeschooling–there seems to be a gazillion free resources out there. My immediate need, however, is for a printer and a new computer. In the meantime, I do have some printer options for me, as I await the equipment. I’m looking forward to this school year.
