This past month...

Here is a reading game we played. Connor had to turn over two ducks and read the word, if they rhymed, he got to keep them, if they didn't rhyme, he had to keep reading (kind of like a memory-match game). Then when he found two that rhymes, he put them (they were ducks) in a "pond". Cute game!

Here is a sample of a page from his reading and spelling workbook. 

We are making a book called "Animal Tales"!

Another page from workbook (on the top, I dictate the word out loud and he spells it and writes it down).

Another reading game- finding matching socks then turning it over and reading the words.

One of our weekly bible memory verses. 

We make a fun project of folding paper with special sounds he learns- like "ar" as in car and star...

More special sounds projects-

We have magnet letter tiles in which we move around to make words.

We are memorizing addition facts up to 10 right now. We use unifex cubes, and then make a worksheet with all the facts. We put this in a math folder we have made. 

Our daily math activity is still awesome! We add one bean and one penny per day. We have a tens cup and ones cup for the beans. Connor can trade in his pennies for nickles, dimes and quarters. We practice counting the money and also place value with the beans. We count by 5's, 10's and 2's. 

Brotherly love!
