Pre-K Update 5

It has been several weeks since I did an update on how Pre-K is going with B.  He has made so much improvement, especially with his handwriting, since we started in September.  I just can't believe how far he has come!

He is learning lots of Scripture, and there are several that he can say if I just give him the Scripture reference.  The fact that he is able to write God's Word upon his heart at such an early age makes me so happy.  And C has learned several of these Scriptures as well, which is just as thrilling.  He can say the Pledge of the Allegiance to the Flag (as can C which is adorable), he knows his full address, can name the four seasons and the four cardinal directions, and he learned the five vowels and their sounds this week.

He can read about 60 sight words and can read them when I use them in sentences such as, "He can go and play.  Where can she help?  We can jump and run.  I see all the big and little pigs."  For the past 6 weeks, we worked on the letters W, R, U, E, K, and L.  We read several books and did some fun crafts.


We finished up a study of the six different animal groups (mammals, reptiles, fish, birds, amphibians, and insects) and make kites for the letter K.

We have four more weeks of school, and then we will be done for the summer.  B is registered to attend the Classical Conversations community in a nearby town, and I am super excited about adding this to our homeschool activities.
