10/12

Alphabet: pages 8-17
colors and shapes: page 102
numbers: pages 126-129
reading readiness: pages 264-265

Handwriting is still a huge struggle for Kailey.  She could not trace the number 2, she got angry and threw the crayons.  She knows the correct answers verbally.  Practice makes perfect, right?   If Kailey starts getting too upset, we'll take a break from the tracing and try again in a few months.

Monday Co-op

11-12 : P.E.
12-1:   Lunch and free play
1-2:     Art class
2-3:    5 in a row class.

Kailey had a blast today!! She is really starting to connect with the other children at the co-op and is remembering their names.  Today in Art class, the children made cards to send to the troops.  It was so sweet.  In 5 in a row, the teacher read a book, and had the children make folders that go along with the book.  I'll post a picture when the project is complete.  It's similar to lapbooking.

October 3rd, 2010

Today we worked on counting.  I was surprised to see that she did know how to count and add numbers.   She completed 3 math worksheets, and did tracing worksheets for letters G and H.   She got all the answers on her math worksheets correct, verbally.

Kailey has NO interest ,what so ever, in learning how to write numbers, again something we need to work on.
