Preschool in progress! Part 2

Hello Again!

Here's another peep into our preschool at home.

We've made it through the alphabet doing a letter a week, and now we are reviewing a few letters at a time.

 Using this book as a guide, we are reviewing the letters c, o, s, a & t
working hard on letter recognition and especially the letter sounds.
Once we have these down pat, then we will finish this 'lesson' in showing them how these letters go together in small words, such as sat, at, cat, so, to etc..
Another thing I've done, is print off a bunch of these practice sheets (found on Pinterest) and laminated them. Then bought some Crayola Dry Eraser Crayons so that they can practice, practice, practice, and we're not using a ton of paper!!
And they think it's great fun being able to colour, then erases and do it again!


And, as it's the month of December, we've done some other fun things lately.
Here I made them snowflakes to paint, and then we hung them in our window.


And we've been focusing on the story of Christ's birth, as Christmas is approaching. I was able to find some Advent colouring pictures, (again off of Pinterest) and they've been having fun colouring those and hanging them up.

We've also read the Christmas story several times lately, from their children's story book Bible, and in the evenings, we have Advent decorations (no picture) that have scripture verses about Jesus coming, and all the prophecies He fulfilled, and have been reading those, and then the kids get to put them up on the tree.
Some days I don't know who enjoys this more, me or them! We do have our not so great days like everyone, but I am so grateful for these two and the opportunity to be their mommy and teach them new things! 

Thank you for coming to read a little bit about our adventures.
