Tot School ~ 22 months

~Ladybug is currently 22 months old~

We had a great week, although she was mildly sick and whiney for most of it, we still played a LOT!  Our schedule is still way off, so we just took each day as it came.  I am praying for a completely well house filled with spring air soon!  ;-)

During her exceptionally whiney sick moments, she was loaded into the bean bag chair with her blankee and hooked up with a lovely learning DVD.  Here she is signing more to ask me to watch Baby Signing Time again.IMG_7527

 

Moms Favorite

This shot cracks me up.  She insisted on wearing her black shoes with her jammies.  I had just taken her piggy tails down and put in a ponytail to keep her hair out of her face and the rest stuck out like wings.  She as not too thrilled with me for wanting to document her extreme sense of fashion.

Raising Rock Stars Preschool ~ Letter Rr

Rock stars This is the main section of our preschool posts-focusing on what we do for our Raising Rock Stars Preschool Curriculum. I am not sharing photos of each part every week, just what I happen to catch! We do the entire unit even if I don’t show it here in the photos!

Our letter this week ~ Rr, our verse: Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.Rr

Here he is coloring his verse page.  Even though this chair position drives me NUTS, I love this picture.  I certainly don’t laugh in the moment, but looking back it makes me giggle.  He is always doing this!!!

He painted his sight word using water on construction paper…IMG_6727

 

R is for Rabbit color by numberIMG_6833

 

We used our mini pocket chart to do sound sorting with cards from Homeschool Creations

He really enjoyed the Rr search from COAH, even searching for words he can recognize after he searched for the letter R…IMG_6823

 

We played with our animal puzzles, after making the puzzles we flipped them over and he found the word I yelled out.IMG_6747

 

He was very proud of his towersIMG_6859

 

Getting buried in bean bags I much more fun than using them how Mommy had intended to use them.IMG_6878

 

I wrote a large Rr on our easel and all week we added things that start with the letter R. Pac Man is our big artistic contributor to this!  Krash enjoys when we add stickers!

His new FAVORITE…iPod School Time!!!  I found a few new apps for him now that he has advanced some.  He still loves TeachMe Kindergarten, but his new favorite is definitely our Bob Books app!!IMG_6916

He was sick recently and this was the moment it hit him.  After playing on the iPod for awhile, I found him passed out sound asleep in our big bean bag.  That’s when I knew he was really sick-he never does that!IMG_6920-2

 

 

Moms favKrash was pretty sick for about 4 days and was pretty pitiful.  On another evening, I found him like this after I had went upstairs to put L-bug to sleep. ;-)IMG_7008
