School Days

     Since Titus in now two and is getting kinda rowdy and frustrated throughout the day, I decided to start add more structure to my day (a suggestion from my sweet friend :)) I have my family notebook that I write down everything in  (something I highly recommend!) like grocery lists, food menus, things needed around the house, to do lists, etc. Well I am now adding a school/Titus activities to the binder :).

    Each week we will be focusing on a letter, number, color, and theme. This week week our focus is the letter A, the number 1, the color red, and apples are our theme for the week :) We have only done two days of it but so far Titus has loved what we have done!! I got us some flashcards, some books, and stickers for us to use.

      We sit down for lunch and while he is eating I just talk and review our focus for the week. He just smiles and loves it!! His favorite thing so far is counting and pointing out the apples in the room (I have several apples and pics of them everywhere).  I also take the opportunity throughout the day to point out our focus for the week wherever we go. Like when we see a red car, numbers on the TV remote, and stuff like that. Just really trying to take advantage of those teaching moments.


    Something else I want to do it try to go outside everyday regardless of the weather (unless it is storming;)) This winter I have not gone outside because it has been too cold and didn't want to go out. I am so looking forward to spring so I can just let him run free outside!! Today was too pretty of a day not to go outside even if it was a little cold :).

I also want him working with his hands more (increasing those fine motor skills :)). So we have been doing coloring time (something I thought he wouldn't do right now cause he is on the go so much) and simply playing with cups, bowls, and dried pasta.

                         Asher's schooling is a little laid back ;)
