School Time Begins!

Well we have been making "baby steps" in getting our school time all organized and into the routine. I know that once Faith starts Kindergarten the routine will get more "normal" and I can really get the day better organized and planned out properly.

I didn't want to get into too much material right away. I didn't want to overwhelm the kids, or myself, with this new home preschooling stuff!

So right now our "School Time" starts with doing the calendar and weather chart. We then start on the Home Preschool materials I had ordered online. All 3 kids participate in the stories, songs, crafts, etc.

All 3 enjoying some School Time. Our classroom at the moment is the kitchen table!


When Nate is down for a nap is when I can sit and focus with the big kids. I got some workbooks from Staples, as well as printed alphabet and number tracing worksheets. I make sure they both work on their numbers and letters every day.

My Preschool Kid!


And The Big Kindergarten Girl! She loves that she gets to join Sam in his preschool lessons! I hope she will still enjoy this as an after school activity...


Our School time usually ends with puzzles, flash cards, or other learning games.

The Little Preschool Wannabe!


I'm hoping to get the hang of this soon. I did not realize how much time went into teaching your kids at home (even if it is just preschool and a little K) I find myself trying to juggle Mom's Club, the gym, School Time, gymnastics, errands...and the days just race away on me! I'm praying I can get into a groove, especially since next week I have to throw in taking Faith to school and picking her up!

I will let you all know how the routine is going, once it's all in place! :)
