Crazy Friday

      Today was one of those days where you just don't sit down from the time you get up until you're going to bed. Oy. Of course since today was Friday, it's library day! Plus we had errands to run, and we only had a short amount of time before Andrew had to take the car and go to work. So basically we got up, ate breakfast, got dressed and left, and got back with just enough time for him to get to work. Ugh. Plus we still had learning to do! I gave them a bit of a break and didn't make them go through everything I wanted to cover today, so we'll just do some work here and there this weekend while Andrew's working.
      Since we had sort of a short time frame to work with before dinner (I never make them do any work after dinner time, even if my OCD is screaming at me to get it done... lol), so we did Abcmouse, worked in our learning to read book (more on that another time), practiced some letters/numbers (S, s, n, J and #5), and did their math lesson on Time4Learning.com. Time4Learning offers a kindergarten curriculum that you pay monthly for, and they offer other grades as well (not sure how far it goes...haven't had time to explore beyond kinder). It's not too bad so far, the animation is definitely nowhere near Abcmouse, and for some reason some lessons sound like they were recorded in an auditorium, but the boys don't seem to notice too much. We do Language Arts, Math and 1st Grade Science through them. Today was Math, and we covered same/different things, which included 6 worksheets to do after the computer lesson/games. They did great, and enjoyed doing it all! I included a few pictures of them doing their Math lesson. :-)
