Today went rather smooth with lessons and bike riding. Flutterby is taking well to the math curriculum. I am so glad I decided to shelve it at the beginning of last year after we had some serious events in life. We are both so much more prepared and just ready to begin this curriculum now.
Also, I am so pleased with how the phonics and writing are coming along as well. Flutterby seems to have hit her stride and just whizzes through these things with great enjoyment. I believe that adjusting when we do these lessons has been useful.
I previously attempted to do lessons in the morning, as though it were the “appropriate” time. However, playing in the morning, lunching, and then doing some lessons works so much better for us. Then we go on to do more fun after lessons.
Homeschooling is a learning process for all involved. I know I learn something every day, including how to do a better job.
