Our First week of homeschooling

Planning planning planning. What will we do week one.

So far I am planning on learning a Dr Suess book. Either Hop on Pop or the foot book. Just waiting for Mr I to decide which he would like to learn to read.

I found some fantastic resources for The Foot Book here http://www.homeschoolshare.com/seuss.php

I love the worksheet for Hop on Pop here on  Vanessa's Blog
And a wordsearch I just made, Mr I loves find-a-words. 

Mr I very excitedly caught a woodlouse the other day and is keeping and feeding it in a jar at the moment, so we will learn about Woodlouse this week. Apparently they have a 2 year lifespan, for a tiny insect I am very surprised.
Info and pictures here I will print a-z animals
A worldmap here to get in the habit of marking where animals are found Teach This
A basic sketch here to show the different parts of a Woodlouse http://www.arthursclipart.org/biologya/biology/woodlouse%202.gif

I picked up a couple of Disney Cars School Skills workbooks at target the other day which I know he is just going to love. So we will do some work in there.

To play into his love of photography going to get him to make sentences with his site words and then take a photo of the sentence.
