{Little Mathematicians} Roll and Park (cars, trains, trucks, etc)

One of the things that I have grown to love about homeschooling is the ability to take any curriculum and relate it to my boys interest. It makes the learning more meaningful and interesting. Number/Word Recognition Activities: This week Thing 1 worked on number/word recognition with a game that involved using trains. I created two boards, one with the words for the numbers 0-5 and the second with the words for the numbers 5-10. For basic practice, have the student roll the die (provided) and park their train (car, truck, horse, animal, rock, etc.). To add an element of competition, print… {Read More}
{Free} Printables Linky Party

With all of the changes I have made to both Thing 1 and Thing 2′s curricula, I have started making a few more printables again so that I can tailor the curriculum to their individual interest. This week was the first week using Thing 1′s new math curriculum. This is the third curriculum we have used. This week we spent some time matching the numbers 0-10 to the corresponding words. Thing 1 loves trains, so this week I revamp an old engine shed game into a practice activity and game. The activity was divided into two parts; the numbers 0-5… {Read More}
{Fun @ 4} New Math Curriculum

Thing 1 had another great week. Handwriting: For handwriting practice I have started to get Thing 1′s input on what he wants to write. So as part of his school day I have him dictate a sentence to me. Then I take the sentence and use the ABC box font and type the sentence for him and leave space for him to illustrate the sentence. The next day, I give that sheet of paper to him to use for handwriting practice and to draw a picture to go with the sentence. At the end of the week we put those pages… {Read More}
{Little Mathematicians} Trains Roll and Graph

Thing 1 is obsessed with trains. Part of the Saxon 1 math curriculum we are loosely following called for graphing one day this week. One of my favorite aspects of homeschooling is being able to adapt the material to my sons’ interests. So instead of graphing the hair color in our household, which wouldn’t be a very fun graph, I created a roll and graph activity for Thing 1. He LOVED it. He actually asked me if I could print him off another one so that he could have the different colored trains “race” again. This activity let’s him practice his… {Read More}
Pumpkin Surprise and More

As part of Cameron Class this week the boys and I are doing some fall related activities. This morning we began our week by dissecting some gourds and pumpkins. Before we cut into each pumpkin or gourd, I had the boys makes some observations, which I turned into a bubble map. I then would cut each pumpkin or gourd in half so that the boys could explore the inside. Thing 3 was even able to participate in this. When we finished making observations and filling in our bubble map, I had the boys write/draw in their journals some of their… {Read More}
Fun at 4! {Week 1}

Welcome to Fun at 4, my new weekly post, where I share the weeks objectives for Thing 1, my four year old. Since I have had to rework my game plan for the year for Thing 1 and he now has a curriculum just for him, I thought I would share our objectives each week in a post just about what my four year old is going to do. Thus, Fun at 4 was born. My goal for working with Thing 1 is to keep it fun and hands on. I want to stay away from worksheets as much as… {Read More}
Train Math Activities

Thing 1 is obsessed with trains. On a daily basis you can find him playing trains, begging you to play trains, drawing trains, begging you to draw trains or reading about trains. With this weeks theme being transportation, I knew we would have a day with trains. Since we are doing kind of an off week as I restructure our home school, I am focusing more on the fun activities as opposed to some of the other things that are not as much fun (like handwriting). Today we did two math train activities. We did both of these activities using… {Read More}
