I have been dreaming of this day for 20 years.

My oldest is about to start kindergarten and I get to be his teacher!

As a girl that was homeschooled from K-12th herself, I have always planned to homeschool my own kids for a number of reasons. But now that the rubber is about to hit the road, I find myself having to make specific choices in philosophies and curriculum for my son.

After reading these books on homeschooling schools of thought, I settled on our own unique mix between the Charlotte Mason model and the Classical model. While I’ll probably write a more detailed post on this later, suffice it to say that I love Charlotte Mason’s approach to learning. It centers on “living books” and interest lead studies. It’s a low stress way to get students to fall in love with learning and literature. The Classical method is more structured but is also literature heavy. My biggest draw to it is the Logic and Rhetoric stages of middle and high school, that teach kids to think well. Students are taught to communicate, persuade, and debate. Because what good is knowledge without influence? I also love their approach to history. They go through the whole of history every four years in chronological order (which is surprisingly lacking in most curriculums that tend to start with American history first.) Another plus is their study of Latin and a strong focus on the arts.

So with these philosophies in mind and my goals firmly planted, I settled on these books to aid us in our first year of formal education. I hope it will help you make your selections of the best kindergarten homeschooling curriculum. 

Please note: while I’m an experienced participant in homeschooling, this is my first year teaching. I have enough humility to know that things won’t always go as expected and I may need to change my approach drastically. This is my best first attempt based on my research and my understanding of my unique son’s needs.

I’m very grateful to Veritas Press, Cornerstone Curriculum, and Berean Builders for providing me with my very top first choices in kindergarten curriculum at my request. The opinions that follow are my honest assessment. 

Language Arts Curriculum 

Let me admit upfront; I may have gone a bit overboard in this category. I love all things language and literature, so we’re coming at this on all fronts.

We are going to learn phonics using the Veritas Press “Phonics Museum Combo Kit” curriculum. It’s an incredibly thorough program with a Classical approach. This curriculum has the premise of a knight named Percival who guides children through an art museum as they collect sounds and phonics rules. It comes with primers that were written with only the sounds that students have already learned up to that point. It does a great job of getting kids ready to read their first book early so they get a taste of how fun it can be and are motivated to keep learning.

The curriculum set comes with all sorts of addition games and tools besides the workbook. There’s a board game, a CD with phonics rules set to music,  flashcards, puzzle pieces with all the different letters and blends so you can piece words together, and much more. There is a copious amount of material with 155 lessons and each one jam packed with activities. I highly doubt we’ll be able to finish each lesson each day, but I’m cool with that. (Check back in a couple months when I give this curriculum a more thorough review after we’ve used it a while.)

Since my mom lives close by, she is stoked to help me homeschool for her second round of teaching. Some quick background first. My brother struggled to read until 5th grade. Back then, not much was known about learning disabilities, but my mom didn’t let that stop her. She heard about the LiPS: The Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing Program for Reading, Spelling, and Speech and knew it would help my brother. It’s a totally different approach to language arts and focuses on sensory and kinetic learning. For example, instead of simply memorizing sounds with their letter symbols, students are taught to look in a mirror to see what their mouth, lips and tongue must do to form each sound. It works totally different areas of the brain and was the turning point for my brother who is now a highly successful engineer. So while my son may not have dyslexia like my brother, I’ve decided with his SPD it certainly won’t hurt to try this approach to reading and language development. My mom is chomping at the bit to do it, and as a very experienced homeschooler, she believes this is the best way to learn to read. I’m undecided, so we’re just going to do both! Ha!

And since I’m a huge Charlotte Mason fan, I’ve set aside an entirely separate subject hour for reading aloud to my boys. I’m currently gathering a list of great works of literature that spark the imagination. We’ll spend our low key afternoons reading and exploring new worlds together. I must say, out of all the subjects, I’ll looking forward to this the most!

Science Curriculum

A lot of the books I read advised me to put off science in kindergarten, but I just can’t do it. My son is enthralled with the idea of experiments, and I just can’t say no to his curiosity!

I really enjoyed science when I was homeschooled, especially in high school. I used textbooks written by Dr. Jay Wile and found them great at explaining concepts. I was pleasantly surprised to see Dr. Wile is still writing science books.

We are going to be using “Science in the Beginning“. It is organized around the seven days of creation, so the first section focuses on the study of light, the second section on water and air, and so on. Nearly every lesson has a very doable experiment. It’s written from a Christian perspective with the goal being to know God better by exploring His creation. I really love that’s it’s meant to be used for various age groups at the same time. Any child, K-5th will get plenty out of it and can do it with their siblings. When my other boys are school aged, this will save me a lot of time and work!

The curriculum kit has review questions at the end of each chapter. There are two basic ones for the young students, as well as more involved follow up assignments for the middle and oldest students. There are tests included in the “Helps and Hints” book, but they are not required. The author recommends this material only for older students that need some practice preparing for the scholastic rigors of exams.

Because there are so many lessons and because this curriculum can be used for all grade schoolers, I’m sure we’ll take more than a year to complete it and probably cycle back through it more than once.

Math Curriculum

Numbers give me the cold sweats. I attribute some of my fear to the curriculum my parents used with me when I was homeschooled. (So yeah, definitely not going the Saxon route!) My brain doesn’t work that way, and I don’t think my son’s does either.

I wanted a curriculum that’s more than just more memorization and more testing and more boring. I think I’ve found it in “Making Math Meaningful Level K“. Also founded on a Biblical worldview, MMM by Cornerstone Curriculum strives to help kids understand and apply mathematical concepts, not parrot back facts without understanding. The main focus of the first year is on understanding the concept of equal/not equal and knowing how to make things equal. Sounds simple, but the concept is often lost on students if they’re not taught it. They’ll be getting the WHY behind math, and that is something I can get excited about!

While the books might not be flashy, there’s a TON of manipulative work with real life objects. The tactile, kinetic learner will love it. There are 36 weeks of lessons and can be easily completed in 15 mins a day. It keeps math from being a mystical idea and makes things concrete through observation, interpretation and application. (Cornerstone Curriculum has other subjects including a Science program that we will use as a supplement. It focuses on using the scientific method to learn about the world around them.)

History/Social Studies Curriculum

After reading up on Classical education, I really wanted to follow the way they layout history by going in chronological order and covering everything from start to finish every four years. But as you might expect, that’s a little too much for a kindergartner to handle.

When I saw Bede’s History of ME from Veritas Press, I knew it was the perfect stepping stone to help my boys be ready to handle a vigorous study of history. Meant to be used once a week, this short book is gorgeous and kid friendly. Students are introduced to the concept of a timeline and over the course of the study make all sorts of them. What kid won’t enjoy making a timeline of toys! Kids will also learn about family trees and understand the basic geography of where they live. There are lots of fun projects without taking up gobs of time. It’s the perfect foundation to lay the more serious study of history upon.

Bible Curriculum

I still don’t see the need to follow a curriculum at this point. We have a bunch of our favorite children’s story Bibles that we read from during breakfast. I want to add more reading of the actual Bible. While it may seem boring to young ears, I want them to learn young how to glean treasure from its pages.

We’re going to try again this year to memorize the New City Catechism. It’s great for learning theology systematically and help kids understand how to view the world. We’ll also spend some of our read aloud time learning about the lives of famous missionaries. I’m also really excited to use The Big Picture Bible Timeline. It will help my boys visualize the full scope of the Biblical narrative, and they get to color the highlighted stories!

The boys are involved in the AWANA program as well so they’ll be memorizing scripture regularly. And of course, I will by God’s grace, bring the gospel into every situation we find ourselves in, both academically and otherwise.

Extra Curriculars

My son will be spending one day a week with other homeschooled students, learning social skills and some extra fun electives. He’ll be taking art, music, speech, gym, even Spanish. I’m excited to watch him excel and make some friends while he’s at it. We’re apart of a support group that gets together for social events and field trips as well.

So that rounds out our plans for the coming school year. Whew! I’m exhausted just thinking about it.

What topic did I forget this time? Oh, you know… lowercase letters!

So I came up with this fun little spring learning activity that helped my son quickly master matching his upper and lowercase letters.

Get all the details on how to make this lovely flower over at my guest post on Pre-K Pages.

I’m addicted to coloring rice for sensory bin fillers.

But even though I can’t get enough of the vivid colors and fun textures in my hands, I’m kinda sick of having the rice all over my floor! So I decided to keep things contained this week and chose a sensory BAG instead!

This post contains affiliate links for your convenience. Read my full disclosure policy here. 

Supplies:

Colored Rice

Alphabet Beads

Clear Plastic Bag

Instructions for the Alphabet Sensory Bag:

Place the rice and the beads inside the plastic bag and then seal it well. Spread it out flat so that a large majority of the beads are visible.

Depending on your child’s skill level, they could search for letters you call out, find letters based on their sounds, or even spell simple words. I had my boys make a game out of it by having them race to find letters. Once my younger one lost interest in the alphabet sensory bag, my oldest continued by spelling sight words.

This is a simple, mess-free way to get your students comfortable around the alphabet.

The post Letter Hunt Alphabet Sensory Bag appeared first on My Mundane and Miraculous Life.

We love sensory bin play over at Adventures of Adam. They provide opportunities for my son to explore his senses and to practice his fine motor skills. We have started to extend our sensory bins to include an additional educational element. Our latest activity is the Spell-A-Star Sensory Bin.

As my son is very confident at recognizing letters of the alphabet I wanted to make a sensory bin from which he could form three letter words. To create our night sky sensory bin I placed 1KG of Black Turtle Beans into a yellow Ikea Trofast storage box.

To make the letters I purchased 100 small glow in the dark stars. Using a permanent marker pen I wrote a different lowercase letter onto each star. I wrote out the alphabet twice, made five stars for each of the vowels and did additional stars for the letters s, t, p and n. The glow in the dark letters were hidden in the black turtle beans sensory bin.

Again using the permanent marker pen I wrote a variety of consonant-vowel-consonant words onto Carson-Dellosa mini cut-out stars. I made sure I only used CVC words that Adam was familiar with. I wrote out 36 words and placed the CVC words into a star container. Finally I placed a sheet of black card next to the sensory bin for Adam to put his letters on.

Adam took to the activity straight away. He picked out a three letter word star and placed it onto the black card. He told me which letter he needed first and then started to search for it on the glow in the dark stars. With hindsight I shouldn’t have placed so many stars in the sensory bin. Adam became distracted with telling me each letter he could find! However, it didn’t take him long to find the letters needed to create p-i-g.

Adam returned to the Spell-A-Star sensory bin many times over several days. He enjoyed locating the individual letters and placing them onto the black card to create a three letter word.

There are many ways that this activity could be adapted:

* To simplify the play I would only hide the three letters in the sensory bin that are needed to create the chosen word. This way your child focuses on identifying the three letters and placing them in the correct order on the card to form the word.

* Digraphs (two letters to make one sound) could also be written onto the glow in the dark stars. This will open up many more word combinations that could be used within the activity.

* To extend the Spell-A-Star Sensory Bin four or five letter words could be written onto the Carson-Dellosa mini cut-out stars.

During a difficult pregnancy suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG) Emma vowed to make every day an adventure once she had recovered. Adventures of Adam is the outcome of completing a 100 day play challenge with her toddler as part of that promise. Emma has a section dedicated to HG friendly play activities so that Mums can still be part of their children’s play whilst they are ill.

But when we decided to make SPORTS our preschool theme for the month, I was determined to combine the two as much as possible!

Enter… this soccer themed language activity! It’s great for letter recognition, learning sounds and spelling!

This post contains affiliate links for your convenience. Please read my full disclosure policy here. 

Materials: 

Paper, Pens and Crayons

Soccer Stickers (This is what we used!)

Bananagram Tiles

Instructions:

Draw a soccer goal on the paper.

This isn’t as hard as it may look. I’m a TERRIBLE artist! I just drew a rectangle and two arches coming off the back and filled it in with a net. Add some blue skies and green grass. Stick the stickers on there to really set the scene. (Laminate it if you want it to last!)

Next lay out the bananagram tiles in the grass. If working on letter recognition or letter sounds, call out a letter and have your child find it and place it on the soccer ball. Once they find the correct letter, have them “shoot” the ball into the net, while making the letter’s sound.

My kids loved hearing ME do this too!

For older kids, encourage them to “shoot” words into the goal! We’re just entering this territory, so we like to do rhyming words. We scored “run”, “sun”, “bun”, and “gun” into the net.

It might seem simple, but this letter recognition and spelling game is a lot more fun than a worksheet or rote memorization!

So many things that you already have at home can be used as educational tools for your children!

One of my favorite places to look for preschool supplies and manipulatives is our game closet…

Board Games that Double as Educational Supplies…

Rummikub is a great game to with grade school kids, in involves sequencing and patterns. But while my kids are still in preschool, we like to use the numerical tiles for all sorts of math related fun! The numbers go 1-13 and there are four colors as well. Number recognition, counting, addition and more can be practiced with these fun tiles!

Bananagrams is one of my favorite games. It’s basically a fast paced Scrabble that doesn’t make me feel like an idiot for only using short words. I love using the squares in our preschool learning! All the letters are upper case and there are plenty of repeats. We practice letter recognition, spelling and more!

Jenga is a classic dexterity game. But they’re also easy to find and the thrifty store and personalize for your educational needs. Write on the wooden blocks with a permanent marker, things that you’re working on like sight words, vocab words or whatever. If you’re child is capable of playing the regular game, have them spell or define each word after they pull out that block. Or if they’re not quite ready for that fine motor challenge, have them do the same thing while BUILDING the tower.

Qwirkle seems like a simple game, but the longer you play it, the more strategies you’ll come up with! We love using it for pattern play with our preschoolers. Instead of letters or numbers, each wooden tile has a colored shape. For younger kids, I have them copy the pattern I make. For older kids, they have to continue the pattern that I’ve begun. The possibilities are endless!

Dominoes another great math manipulative. It certainly assists with counting as the numbers are not written out. It’s a great way to get kids matching, or adding/subtracting!

Dice may seem boring, but there are about a million ways to play with them. Kids find them especially intriguing. Role two dice and add or subtract them. Roll six dice and put them in order of least to most. Some die even have more than six sides so the number combinations can get pretty advanced!

This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to educational supplies you can find in your home. Let me know what you use to help your kids learn at home, in the comments below!!!

Supplies:

Apple Notepad

Tape

Marker

Directions:

Write out the letters you’re wanting your child to be mastering on the apple paper. Tape them down to the floor, spread out about one child’s step apart.

You can make this game fit your child’s particular needs and learning goals. First we started by simply hoping to the letter I’d call out. This familiarized my son with where the letters were located.

Then I decided to make it harder by asking him to slap the letter that says a certain sound. Occasionally, he’d need help with the vowels (English is ridiculous!) but he really started to catch on to the sounds each letter makes!

Then we got fancy and started spelling simple words. I coached him through it of course. But we’d think of a simple word, break down the sounds and then hop or crawl around until we’d spelled words like “hat”, “net”, “gas” and so on.

While he’s not necessarily spelling, he is making the connection between what letters look like, what they sound like and how those sounds come together to form words! He’s so excited!!!

And all the while, we’re getting proprioceptive and vestibular sensory input! What’s that you say? Glad you asked! Read this!

Structure is not my strong suit. 

I like to be laid back and flexible. Sometimes it’s the only way I can manage to keep my patience with the chaos surrounding me.

But I also long for a bit of a schedule, a plan, an idea of what to expect.

So as the new school year approaches, I’m re-evaluating what we did in our home preschool last year.

I can’t believe we’ve been doing this homeschooling thing long enough to have different years to compare to!

When we started out, we did a very relaxed “Tot-School” that revolved around books and play and had no structure. (I’d plan an entire MONTH in one hour!) Last year, we tried to follow a bit of a daily schedule that included a lot of sensory input since my son has SPD. Now my oldest son is four and ready and eager for more learning! His two year old brother wants in on the action too. Oh, and we’re adding baby brother number THREE in November. (See why I’m wanting to get things under control?)

Changes to our Four Year Old Preschool Curriculum…

A Year-Round Schedule (Sorta)

We live in Texas. I’m not from Texas. I kind of want SMASH things it’s so dang hot here in the summer.

So I figure, why not have our school breaks during a time of year when outside survival is an option?! I decided we’ll be taking the whole month of December off as well as Thanksgiving and the first week of January. It works out perfectly this year since our third son is due at the end of November. I also plan on taking a large three week break in May (before it’s too hot) and then a week sometime in August.

Here’s the weird thing. The first “semester” (Jan. – Apr.) we’ll do a typical five day school week. But come June through November, we can still get all the required days in by doing a FOUR day week! I’m pretty stoked to have that flexibility for the majority of the year!

A STEM Focus to Pair with the Unit Theme

We’ll still be doing a monthly theme and renting a gazillion books about the topic from the library. We’ll still do fun crafts and activities around that theme. But this year, I want to be more intentional about having a science or math focus each month. I haven’t worked out what each month will hold but I know during our Ocean themed unit, we’ll pair that with lots of water related science experiments. When we research Trains, we’ll especially focus on patterns. (Can’t you picture a cute train pattern activity!)

Charlotte Mason Habit Training

My good friend told me about the book “Laying down the Rails : A Charlotte Mason Habits Handbook“.  Basically the idea is to focus on one particular habit for 6-8 weeks and once it is mastered, move on to another. When things like truthfulness and attentiveness are a habit, every day life should be much less of a hassle. I’m certainly willing to give it a shot! We all could use a little more discipline around here. We’re a bunch of wild banshees, myself included!

Book of Virtues

Along those same lines, I want to supplement our Jesus Storybook Bible time with some additional tales from “The Book of Virtues“. I love that it’s a mixture of classic fictional stories from folks like Aesop as well as stories from the lives of historical heroes like Abraham Lincoln. The boys seem to be relishing each story like I did as a kid when my mom read it to me!

The New City Catechism

A catechism is a series of questions and answers that covers the essential doctrines of Christianity. It’s meant to be memorized. The New City catechism is pretty cool in that it has both an adult and children’s version, videos, prayers and even catchy songs to go with each of the 52 questions (one a week for a year, perfect!) My oldest blows me away with his memorization skills and he’s always asking deep questions about God. I can’t wait to get started!

In Conclusion…

We will continue to read a ton of books, do thematic language and art activities, and do tons of sensory therapy! We’ll be adding a bigger emphasis on math and science while implementing some new character building tools on top of Bible time.

Who wants to laugh at my ambitious goals PRE arrival of baby number three!?! I don’t blame you. We all know I don’t handle the baby phase like a pro.
