First day of School!

Today is the first day of our new school year. It is different teaching a 2nd grader and a kindergartner. I found out that the older they get the more work is required, both for the student and the teacher. I think our son, the kindergartner, is more excited to be in school than our daughter. He is learning about creation for the first two weeks and he just had a blast cutting and gluing and coloring. It is going to be a great school year, and I am looking forward to learning with the kids.

I bet you'll have a great year. Everything is still so new and you can have so much fun with hands on activities.

That's awesome Tammie! God is so good...We started and had a wonderful day too! PRAISE THE LORD! Eli was even telling me at bedtime last night he couldn't wait to do his work in the morning. Thank you JESUS!

Hi Tammie, we did the MFWK creation stuff w/Evan last winter so I skipped it. I may do it again with Levi & Asher together in the spring. Because neither of them are actually K yet, I'm just going through this stuff "lightly" with them then I'll do it over when Asher is ready. But Evan is more than ready now! I plan to work on those fine motor skills with him! the kid hates to color....
