Homeschool A-Z 2 years to 3 years old

We used 1plus1plus1equals1.com’s Tot School Printables FREE curriculum along with ABCJesusLovesMe.com’s 2-Year Bible Curriculum.
What a journey it was, teaching Jordyn and watching her grow spiritually, developmentally, and emotionally. Her joy was truly my joy each time she got so excited about an activity or just ‘doing school.’ I highly recommend both curriculums I mentioned above. I want to note that I selected pieces from the ABCJesusLovesMe curriculum each week.

Homeschool Letters Y & Z

Here are the final 2 weeks of our journey through the alphabet using "Tot School Printables". We are currently on week 2, letter B, with our new curriculum "Animal ABCs". Jordyn is more interested in tracing letters than ever before. I will use her interest to my advantage in the weeks to come. I hope to establish correct tracing habits early, before she has a chance to create her own way to trace the letter 'B' for example. I have found the ipad to be a very useful tool in teaching her how to trace letters. We are loving our other new curriculum "All About Reading (Prelevel)". Also, our new puppet friend that visits us, 'Ziggy the Zebra,' is probably the highlight of our school day. The only downside is that, for the last 2 weeks, anytime Ziggy has to go back 'home' Jordyn has an absolute meltdown.

Homeschool weeks 21, 22, & 23

What fun we have had! I have just been very lazy with my picture taking. I am regretting that now as I blog about our 'letter focus' work. I only took 3 pictures the whole week of the letter "W." This is why I put 3 weeks on this blogpost.

 

 

Week 21

V is for VOLCANO

 

The stamping turned into dot painting and identifying the uppercase and the lowercase letters.

 

Tracing
I did the big V and she is tracing over it.
She did the little v.

 

Tracing turned into stickering, once again I tried to do a pattern with her.

 

Stickering turned into FACE DECORATING

 

Tracing her Doc McStuffins again

 

 

OUR VOLCANO EXPERIMENT

 

 

playdoh as the volcano mold
vinegar with red food coloring
baking soda

 

Jordyn got to add the baking soda

 

We had talked about how lava was HOT!! She wanted to get as far away from it as she could.

She was blowing on it!

 

WEEK 22

W is for WINDOW

 

 

WWWWaffles with blueberries

 

Tracing her Circles before letter work

Tracing her lines

 

 

 

 

WEEK 23

X is for Xylophone

THEME: INSTRUMENTS

 

 

THE ELLIOTT BAND
Jordyn on the triangle,
Daddy on the noisy thing,
Caleb on the bells,
Mommy as the videographer

 

Here is our lead singer:
Colin  Sir   Elliott

 

Not sure if the band will be together long...

 

Jordyn was the triangle queen morning, noon, and night for this week. HELP!!!

 

 

This is our new set up for Calendar/Praise Time in the morning.
Our new praise time board correlates to the buckets that are attached to the shelf. She 'draws' the color, shape, animal, and letter of the DAY out of them. The books on the shelf are switched out everyday. I got this new shelf b/c I felt like I wasn't reading to her as often as I wanted to. This is a very good visual aid to remind us to read during this time.
