We've made it through four months of homeschooling, and I have been reflecting on what we have done so far and thought I'd share.
- I enjoy teaching my children.
- I am more laid back about our daily schedule than I thought I'd be.
- I like having a basic "lesson plan" already done for me rather than creating one from scratch.
- I have more ideas for activities than we have time, and its okay that we don't do them all.
- Marissa loves worksheets.
- It is okay to let Marissa sit and do worksheets even if I think it is a strange thing for a three year old (or any child) to really enjoy doing.
- After four months, I still like Sonlight Core B.
- I think Sonlight will continue to be a good fit for us.
- The connectivity provided by studying topics by theme works great for us.
- Makayla pays attention to more of our read alouds than I expected.
- I don't regret starting Handwriting Without Tears and Singapore Earlybird Math this year.
- I am strongly considering starting Language Arts K this year.
- I love having opportunities throughout our day to point our children to God.
