November Homeschooling!

I am thankful for the ability and time to homeschool!!! I love getting to have all three of my girls home with me every day and getting to teach them and watch them grow. So here is a little update on what we have been doing during the month of November. First, Lily started to get bored with writing in her journal. We decided to make a Thanksgiving writing folder. We worked on poems and writing about things that we learned this month. Here are a few pages from it:

We also completely finished Hooked on Phonics and then we did a workbook from walmart. In November we started using Accelerated Christian Education for our reading. We are really enjoying it. Each book has a memory verse that they focus on each day plus working on the skills she needs. She worked on learning when to use to, two, and too. She also worked on vowels and when to use A or An. She has mastered all of these skills this month. I love it!

We completely finished the Alpha Omega first grade history curriculum in three months. Lily loved it, but it was too easy. So now we have been learning about U.S. Presidents. We simply got this book from the $1 bin at target. It has great information on each president with simple games. Lily loves learning which president is on each coin or dollar.

Now I think we might take a break from some of this next month. I am wanting to work more with Lily on geography by doing Christmas around the world next month. In writing, I have another fun book for her to work on. Hope you enjoyed seeing what we have been up to this month!
