Zak and Kaliah continued with some self taught, self paced sign language today. Kaliah has really taken to it - she sat and read and learned the signs in alphabetical order!!
We spent the afternoon at the Nepean Educational Supplies bookstore, looking at books, and I let the kids choose their own work books this year (of course, I still had the final say, but for the most part, they seem to know what they want!) Besides, the little ones picked theirs by me offering them a choice. We also invested in some Base 10 blocks, as we discovered many maths exercises last year that couldn't be completed without them), some jumbo coloured pencils (easier for the little kids to grip too!) and other essential stationery supplies.
Sounds great!! I am going to go back and read your blog from the start :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! :)
ReplyDeleteI was a bit slack last year and didn't get on here much (or at all - ooops!) with so much happening, but this year I'm really trying to keep up to date and keep records of everything we do :)
