One of the biggest tasks I have undertaken since I have been home full time is organizing. Seriously, it seemingly has no end. The bright side however, is that things are becoming a whole lot easier to find. And if you’ve ever owned a hodge podge of art supplies, you know how big of a deal this is. This morning, Bianca took one look at our rolling cart of…
The concept of teaching for mastery instead of teaching for completion was just introduced to me via a post by a fellow homeschool mama. It was a revelation that served to reaffirm my purpose as well as empower me to continue along this path. Every day with a micro schooling pod is a gamble, regardless of how prepared we feel. There are less children to serve as “the example” when…

Sorting offers so many learning opportunities in one activity. In this particular activity, we’re learning about clothes, so the children were asked to sort the buttons by color. You’ll notice that the yellow buttons look like a little house and even shape patterns within the same color family begin to emerge. These are tiny glimpses into your child’s mind, and like most things, when…
This is an activity we did during our “All About Me” unit to highlight our sense of touch. There are so many possibilities here, and it’s a ton of fun while also being REALLY simple to do. You’ll notice we’re outside, on the grass, which I highly recommend. Because when you turn around for 10 seconds and one of the toddlers spills the contents of the tub…
