Homeschooling A Houseful

I thought I'd share our "calendar wall", some of you might have seen our homemade, by me calendar {as seen below} Yep it's still around, can you believe it, somethings do make it in a houseful!!! Though we have definitely taken it a bit further..... so I thought I'd share with all of you.... At the beginning of the school year, I made some simple calendars for most of the A's {I do wish I would have made one for A6, I should have known better, she must do everything everyone else does} I used the printables from this site . There are a few different ideas there. I printed my older 4 A's blank calendars. They fill in the date. The older A's usually fill in weeks at a time, and don't always fill in the day, every day. We also, usually on Monday, discuss our week. Maybe if we have a field trip, or an upcoming birthday or holiday. A science fair, or upcoming drawing contest we are participating in coming up. I try to mention these things, along with ...

I got my creative groove today, and made these Number songs . Now I am no where as creative as a lot of the bloggers out there!!! I am not set up to do such cute things, I don't have a nice program. Anyways, I made these very simple, but cute number songs... and thought I'd share!

I need to post this here, see I just read it on another local homeschooler blog, and we all said... hey we learned that before! My good friend Andrea taught it to us, a few years ago! Since it's such a hit, and so loved... I thought the littler A's need a turn to learn it too... so this weeks geography song, will be the 50 states that rhyme!!! Thanks Lara ! I had no idea it was on You Tube... it seems everything is on you tube!!!
