first day of homeschool

Last night was our first official night of homeschool. We are going to do school when Daddy gets off work for the time being, b/c we want Daddy to be a teacher too. For the first 10 days, we will be learning about creation and each day learn about what God created. On day 1, we learned God created the light and separated the day from the night. We cut out a number 1 and began making a time line. We also "illustrated" a picture for our creation book of what the separation looked like. Then, we played games with the letters A&B's. LE already knows her letters and sounds, so she helped Bella learn about the letters and the sounds they make. It was a great night. It was a really fun night. We are all so excited about this new journey.

Yep, you are amazing. There's no way I could even contemplate homeschooling. But, you are a gifted teacher and devoted mom... what better combination than that to teach your precious girls!

So "out-of-the-box" thinking, I would expect no less... Night school for kindergarten. Love the teacher/student ratio too.. :)
YEH LE & Bella ... Mimi & PawPaw send love and kisses..
