Right now we are doing a letter a week, so everything we study in each of the subjects begins with the letter we are learning about. For example, this week has been the letter C so we talked about courageous Queen Esther when we did our Bible story, compared groups of objects to decide which had more or less, counted objects, looked at the calendar, and created pictures. Also, we read books about counting and cats.
Schedule:
Bible story and memory verses
Journal to Daddy when he is away - she tells me what to write and then she adds a picture to go with the words
Calendar - date, days of the week, months of year, weather, seasons
Monday - talk about letter of the week, sound it makes, what it looks like, what things begin with the letter, finding things that start with the letter, finding the letter in the house, etc
Learn a nursery rhyme - we've been checking various books out with lots of nursery rhymes in them and so we try to learn one a week. We have also been reading a fable or fairy tale a week.
Tuesday - math day, numbers, practice recognition of them, couting, one-to-one correspondance, patterns, adding, sorting, etc
Wednesday - Science day, experiements, observations, reading books on various topics
Thursday - S.S. day, reading books on various topics and library day
Friday - We usually have one day where we go out in the morning so we don't get to our school work - Friday is our day to "catch up"
