His very first person picture. He did this all by himself and was very happy with all the praise he got. We even took his picture!
Did you know that in the state of Missouri, homeschoolers must teach reading as a separate subject? I don't know how anyone could homeschool well without teaching their child to read... but OK.
I got many of my ABeka books used and collected them over time. I'm glad I came across these readers early in my homeschooling years. It teaches children to read step-by-step. I don't think I've seen a more effective reading program for the elementary years. The children love the stories, and what I appreciate about them is that there is a rich and varied language even in simple-to-read books in this series.
My set is pretty old, and some are even from the 1960's and no longer listed in the reading series. I think if I had to do things over again somehow, I think I'd just spend on a curriculum set and be done with it. That's the thing, though, with homeschooling.

We love Woodjie!
ReplyDeleteWhen is his first gallery showing? You'd better get that wine and cheese ready.
ReplyDeleteVery, very nice. We did sidewalk art today, but Cupcake is not nearly as clever as Woodjie!
ReplyDeleteYep, anon, we sure do!
ReplyDeleteLOL Harry, he is a great little artist! All that discussion for hours and hours of "eye. eye. happy!" has paid off and he has done his own work. Further, he did this without supervision AND added a dot for a nose. Yeah.
Bonnie, I don't know that Woodjie would be so brave as to touch the chalk and get all dusty. :]
You go, Woodjie!
