Physical Education

that worked well

November 30, 2011 By Annette1 Leave a Comment

went to the Stratford library to do our schooling before heading off to swimming.

I think I shall do that more often. Getting out work done at the library means less distractions.

means I have to be better organized, but better organized, and having better schooling done over a shorter period of time sounds like an excellent idea to me. ๐Ÿ™‚

We did art and science today at the library. A good thing that! We first did some book work though, then played art and language skills on a computer, and some science as well on the computer. Then we started doing our Christmas cards… excellent way to practice our spelling!

He has watched the rescuers a fair bit lately so the golden eagle and the boy riding the figure prominently. ๐Ÿ™‚
building Christmas cards… stickers, drawing and writing. It’s all good.

Then off to lunch at boston pizza, and then over to the YMCA for swimming lessons.

Then home again.

Played a game before bed (connect four) and played a construction game as well.

Today we….

November 22, 2011 By Annette1 Leave a Comment

We started off with our normal daily readings out of

10 minute stories

The lad didn’t appear to be impressed… was off playing and chatting while he listened. Some stories keep him glued to the chair.

World History

We are into Roman history now. It’s just fascinating reading tidbits about ancient history. Today we learned what good builders and architects they were.

Then we went with reflexmath. The lad enjoys this program.

Then upstairs to do a snowman search and find. This gives us a chance to talk and read a page in a large floor puzzle book. We talk about different ways to hold a pencil crayon to get different effects, and the lad has fun searching out the hidden objects.

A fellow homeschooler over at Learning To Homeschool gave me this idea. To have a daily word to learn. I asked her how she came up with them and she said just words they come across as they read or talk. Since that’s too “iffy” for me I decided to use this

Children’s Illustrated Dictionary.

Today’s word was Abacus: a frame with beads that slide along wires, used for counting.

I read another chapter out of First Language Lessons, Levels 1&2

We read a few poems out of a book until we found one that made us both think of a picture in our heads, so we drew. This also gave us an opportunity to talk about the different ways one can hold a drawing implement in order to achieve different effects.

I’ll try to post pics of what we did later today.

now off to swimming lessons, and then the library afterwards if it’s still open upon our return. ๐Ÿ™‚

Gymnastics

November 23, 2010 By Annette1 Leave a Comment

The lad enjoys going to gymnastics. When told he was going to gymnastics today I got a very enthusiastic “YIPPEE” complete with disappointment that we were going to Wal-mart first. We were half an hour early for gymnastics so needed to find someway to keep ourselves busy. ๐Ÿ™‚

He had a good time today and did his first completely unassisted back flip through the rings today. ๐Ÿ™‚

We got him signed up and paid for a new session starting in January. He’ll be with a different group of children this time, the 6-8 year olds, but his coach says he’s ready to be with them. He listens well and can complete most of what is asked for.

I’m glad that he has fun, I’m thrilled that he’s learning new things, and I’m pleased that he has such a positive attitude to learning from a person different than mommy.
