Well Baloo was in public kindergarten for exactly 2 weeks. He loved it! He had a wonderful teacher and did great at school. However, we discovered they used some discipline techniques that we don’t agree with and we just aren’t comfortable with him being in that atmosphere. So back home it is! He actually was…
I haven’t posted tot school in a bit for 2 reasons. Firstly, we haven’t been doing as much as usual since Baloo is going to start public school soon. Secondly, we’ve been out of town! So this will encompass more than just one week. We did a bit with the letter Z kind of…
Well our first weekend of kindergarten went pretty well!! Baloo was excited for most of it and did really well! Royal was a bit neglected as we worked out the week but we’ll get better at it! Baloo loves writing so we did a lot of writing this week. We worked through a lot of…
Royal is 26.5 months Tot school was a bit scarce this week as we started kindergarten with Baloo, but we did get a few things in! We spent a lot of time outside (though most of it in the little spool and sprinkler.) This is Royal being a tree. I started his Oo for…
Baloo started kindergarten on Monday and so far it’s going great!! He loves to write so we start every morning with a different writing exercise. Typically Monday and Wednesday we do prompts, Tuesday we do a story in his story journal, and Thursday is a writing activity sheet. I have a bunch of writing prompts…
This is really my first sensory tub, so I’m sure I have a lot to learn. For instance, buy plenty of little beads or you will barely have enough to cover the bottom of the bin!! In the bin are: Shells from Walmart Lauri Toys Fit-A-Space Small blue and white beads for flowers from Walmart…
I’m going to be making tot school printables for Royal every week that correspond with our Ocean theme. We e started with J is for jellyfish from 1+1+1=1. We will still continue to use some of the material from the J is for jellyfish and just add in some different letters throughout the weeks. S…
Royal is 26.5 months We had a great week – starting with some 4th of July activities and then moving on to our beach theme (which we will continue throughout July).Royal didn’t do as much at our local fair as Baloo. I think it was a bit overwhelming for him. He did try a few…
Well this was officially Baloo’s last week of PreK. He starts kindergarten on Monday, although he’s not really excited. I don’t think he gets it just yet!We started the week off with a lot of fun 4th of July activities (complete with a trip to Freedom Fest on base!) Baloo loved the obstacle course and…
Royal is 26 months Our F for Fireworks theme this week was so much fun!!! We’re not going to any fireworks this weekend but I’m secretly hoping that some of our neighbors break the burn ban and light a few. We had a lot of fun coloring, gluing, and glittering some fireworks! Royal has never…
I won’t lie, our 2nd week of transition did not go particularly well, through no fault of Baloo of course! It’s just been one of “those” weeks. We started off the week searching for bugs, and then collecting fake bugs. We picked up this stuff at Dollar Tree for our bug unit in August,…
Well we are halfway through our Fourth of July theme – fireworks!! The boys are really enjoying our firework activities although I’ve realized that now we’re going to have to actually go to see fireworks this weekend! Anyway, for some reading practice we made some fireworks!! I had the boys color these paper bags…
