Only one week to go before our first, official, full-year, of home schooling begins and I am so excited.
Already I have been planning. So far I have three folders which maps out what I plan to do each week. Currently they are only full until the end of October, with a bit leading up to Christmas. I keep buying new ink and printing things out then running out of ink all over again, lol. I also have to keep buying supplies of the right green paper, for my daughter, as she suffers from dyslexia and can read better on certain paper.
So whilst I am feeling giddy about it all, I thought I would share with you all some of the boxed activities that I have been buying on Amazon.
This year I thought my daughter could try and invent something. She loves Science so I thought it would be a great way to open up her imagination. I bought this boxed activity and we also plan on visiting the Science museum in Glasgow in September.
We also decided to do some weather experiments as well as learning about water, which we touched on briefly before the end of last school year.
We will also be doing various arts and crafts and I picked this up.
We will also be doing three languages this year - French, Sign Language and Spanish. In these topics we will be covering the basics then come the end of the school year she can get to pick which one she would like to continue. Beside using Twinkl for resources we will be using YouTube, books and these handy things.
All of our lessons can be done both at home or out and about, which I love. We also have lots of field trips planned. I am hoping everything goes well. I have a set amount planned for each week but I do know that if things are not done we can just do them the following week or do more on the week we are at.
I will also be keeping records of everything I do, just in case the local council want to check in on my daughter's progress.
