Bye Bye Preschool... Hello Summer!


Today we had our last official day of homeschool preschool for this school year. Really what that means is that we won't have weekly themes and we won't gather for circle time and work time at the table during the summer. We will continue to read a lot and count and do projects, especially some science experiments.

We did make a big deal today, though, of it being Ray's last day of preschool. He is proud to tell everyone that he is now a Kindergarten student!

Here's a shot of the boys doing one of our first lessons last Fall. They were so proud of these alphabet palm trees. They are still hanging on their bedroom doors.

Today Ray and I looked through all of the written work and art work and projects that I have saved from this year of preschool. He was very proud of himself and surprised at how much work he did and how significantly he improved his coloring and drawing and writing skills. I was impressed too!

Here's the writing page he did today:Here's a picture that he drew of himself today:
Compare that to one that he drew in the Fall:
This is the project Ray picked out from his stack of work and asked me to put on the blog:
It's a good choice! We're moving through the seasons, learning together. The days can be long and tedious, but it's so awesome to see them learn and develop. I am so happy to be on this homeschool journey with them. I'm already busy planning for our next school year.
