Wow! I can't believe we have already been doing this homeschooling thing for almost a month now. I will say the first two weeks were rough, especially for my oldest child. She is so use to being in public school that she was having a hard time letting go of that way of thinking. She felt like she had to do tons of every subject, everyday, instead of spreading it out throughout the week. We had to change some of her supplementing curriculum already because she didn't care for it. We also had to work on time management as she wanted to wait until dinner time to do anything and then complain when she got into trouble for not getting it all done. Thankfully, I think we got those few bugs out.
Callie, on the other hand, is doing fantastic! She loves mommy being her teacher. She has already learned to recognize 1-10, say 1-10 in Spanish, recite her days of the week and the months of the year, she also can recognize letters A-C, and she knows how to write her name independently! These are HUGE strives in such a little amount of time (2 days a wk for 3 wks). I can't wait to see what the next month has in store for us.
