More fun school stuff

Katelyn is a great student.  She's a little sponge and loves to learn.  She has been practicing writing, reading and addition/subtraction.  She has memorized what perseverance means, what a preposition is, the classifications of living things, the five kingdoms of living things, the first two weeks of our history timeline (working on ancient history), she can count by 2's to 24 and knows most of the ten commandments.  Pretty good for our first couple of weeks.

 We made a lapbook to help her learn the ten commandments.  She really liked this project.

 She's such a hands on learner.  Anything that she can make, touch, interact with, she likes.

 She's pretending she's Moses on top of Mount Sinai with the tablets.  :)

 Here she is practicing putting the first week's history memory work in order.  

 She did it!  It really is amazing what a five year old can memorize.  

 We made a game out of it and she loved trying to beat mommy.  

Here she is practicing counting by twos.

I love being able to homeschool Katelyn.  It's definitely challenging but we are having a lot of fun and I am so thankful that we are able to help her grow spiritually and academically as fast or as slow as she's ready for.
