Insider573

The area I live in has a local magazine called Insider573. Its a magazine that is based on the 573 area code. My family had the privilege of being in the Crown Valley article.

If you just so happen to live in the 573 area, you can find out more information about Crown Valley's corn maze, pumpkin patch, hayrides, and farmers market here.

MFW - The Letter S

Last week we studied the Sun and the letter S. 

The highlight of the week was reading Sun Bread by Elisa Kleven. We even made some Sun Bread of our own!

You can find the recipe here. This was my first time I successfully made bread! It was extremely easy and so yummy! The boys enjoyed their bread by spreading cherry jam that I recently picked up at our town's fall festival.

Wordless Wednesday

It's not really wordless... 

While decorating for Halloween, I discovered the B on my basket broke. 

Major slackage

I've been slacking on my blog. Homeschooling Hunter is taking more of my time than I anticipated. I am not complaining though! Hunter absolutely loves it. He is so excited to wake up in the mornings to learn. 

Next Monday Hunter starts youth basketball. He is looking forward to it. We plan on signing him up for Futsal this winter. I really hope that it works out. I signed him up for soccer when he was three and we did not have a good results. He ran around the entire time and did not listen to his coach. I know it was too early to sign him up for team sports, but I was super excited. I love soccer. I played it in high school.  I am keeping my fingers crossed!  

Wordless Wednesday

First week of school completed!

We have our first week under our belt! We're still trying to find our groove, but it went well. 

The first day of school picture!

The boys messing around.

This week was about getting reinforcing some subjects. This week we will actually start with the book work.

One to one correspondence. 

We went over personal hygiene. I made a sensory activity about germs. I froze pom poms in water! They had so much fun cleaning the ice with their old toothbrushes and wash clothes. 

Each day we discuss what the weather is like outside. 

 Hunter sitting down for story time!
