Snippets from our Day

Stomping feet, bouncing knees, waving arms--these girls can dance! When I turn on the Wheels on the Bus Pandora station, Jacqueline and Abigail crawl as close as they can get to the TV (the gate surrounding Champ's bed), and stand up and start to wiggle to the beat. Watching them dance brings JOY to me--they are so free! You'll notice in this photo that Abby is wearing the purple bloomers from Jacqueline's dress over her romper. The girls are already starting to love "dress up."

What do you see, little J? Trees blowing in the wind? A squirrel scurrying across the fence? Champ snoozing in the shade? Dead grass? ;) I hope your curiosity and love for nature continue to grow. And I hope that you eventually stop trying to eat leaves.

In addition to Abby's dress up shorts, she wanted to wear this headband. When the headband fell down over her eyes, she left it there for awhile. She has the mask on and undies over her clothes...now all she needs is a cape and she'll be Super Abby!
Abby, I hope you develop a strong imagination as you dress up and pretend.

Once everyone did their morning routine--brushed teeth, got dressed, made bed, fed the dog--we met in our "school room" (dining room) for math. Abigail and Jacqueline worked independently on math work for 15 minutes or so and then we did a math lesson together. During this time, Natalie was busy coloring, cutting paper for crafts, or pretending and building with Legos. Jacqueline joined her for some Lego play while Abigail finished her math page. When we finished math, we moved into the living room for memory work. We are part of a co-op called Claritas and our curriculum follows the classical model of education. As preschool and first graders, my g...
