I found a generic version of Jengaat Michael’s in the Christmas clearance section. Not sure why it was there, but none the less, I had to grab it. I also got some great wooden puzzles for $1, they have all their Christmas Stocking Stuffers on sale for 60% off. So…I…
So we’re totally behind on this, but I finally got around to participating in the Instant Challenge hosted by Michelle @ Delightful Learning.

We put a new lapbook together this week! I downloaded it from File Folder Fun! Its a compound words lapbook, check it out! I had to glue 2 folders together since there were 3 full pages of words: Here it is in action!

I’d made these file folder games awhile back and forgot about them! Just remembered and put them in boxes. I like this idea because its more like playing a game than working! This one is a beginning sounds game, I don’t remember which book I got it from, but this…
The first thing we do in the morning is group time. We do Calendar counting, days of the week singing, months of the year, and the pledge of allegiance. Next we do our bible study which includes prayer, singing, then the study. This picture is them dancing and worshiping God!…
