So I put together a few ideas for myself to plan out the rest of the school year and thought I would share it with everyone else as well. I discovered where we are at in our history curriculum falls very nicely into events on the calendar (Olympics, African American history month, & Easter.) I was happy about that, makes history a bit more practical for a almost six year old. Also added some of our workbox ideas and will be making a bunch of file folder games for X & preschool activity bags for A now that we have a new printer. So here you go… first post in 2010!
