We had a successful week at J-school this week. We did our very first literature study as a test run prior to us starting BFIAR ( Before Five In a Row). The book of the week was Brown Bear, Brown Bear and J loved it. Our week pretty much followed my intro to J-school blog but as of next week there will be a few changes.
1. We will be adding Math-U-See Primer to the lineup. J watched the introductory video with me today and immediately asked, "Mommy, who's that?" I told her it was Mr Demme. She nodded and said "Oh" as if she knew who he was.
2. Because we are adding BFIAR ( I really wanted to do more classic preschool books so that she can still enjoy being a toddler and it's a good foundation for the Trivium) we will be doing 1 lesson for 2 days of Foundations A. At this rate she should be starting Foundations B at the end of June.
3. We are adding BFIAR. I will be placing all her completed work in a binder so that we can look back at it when we are finished 'rowing'
4. We will be doing more painting and play doh activities because J has been requesting it.
5. Also planning on getting a CD player in order to further expose her to music ( something she seems to have a passion for- she was very upset this week when she asked for a tuba and I said we do not have one)
Well that's all for now.
