This year since Emily is reading so well things are much easier. Plus with the kitchen done we have space to work. All she does is written on color coded index cards. This helps keep things organised and gives her the freedom of a lot of choices. We have daily cards, weekly, reward, break time, unit studies. So far it's working great.

Emily found monarch remains so we checked it out with the microscope and magnifying glasses..

I'm creating an element unit making memory cards. Also did some sponge painting to make our own.

Emily loves dolphins. This is a shot she took of a book I didn't even know she was reading. Not one of the library picks.

Yardsale find $2.00 for all. Emily loves to read, she did so well on the peabody testing for 1st grade. Scored on a 3rd grade level on everything.

Proud Mama

I am so proud of Emily! She just had her 1st grade testing and scored on a 3rd grade level. Just kicked ass on all of it and overcame her bashfullness enough to do it. The only bad part is I 'm sad I can't tell mom or Chris, they would've have been so thrilled . Much work to do to ready for 2nd grade but this has certainly inspired me to get on it. Yeah!
