Homeschool Day 5

F for flowers and fingers!
This is day 5 of our homeschool with Pia. We had storytelling about the Fisherman and his wife. It told about the wishes of his wife that the fisherman had to tell to the Flounder who was magical.
They enjoyed a lot and then after the story time was our art class.
We traced their hands on art paper, then cut them out. We had these taped together to form the petals. We taped it on to a straw which was the stem of our flower.
Homeschool day 6 is taking toll because Pia is sick. We hope she gets well soon.

Homeschool Day 4

So, day 4 starts with our flag ceremony. Yes, i needed to teach them our National anthem. It was important that they learn this, as residents of the Philippines.
There had been a strong typhoon in between our lessons so Pia couldn't come to our house. I told her relatives to teach her about the letter D. So when she came here for our lessons, we already have the letter E on our 4th day.
E for Elephants
We used the tissue paper rolls for this cute elephants. As usual, Pia enjoyed and had fun.

Homeschool Day 3

I was hoping that Pia could already memorize the first 2 alphabets i taught her. I just keep reviewing her about the alphabets and their sound. I remember my son, Andrew.. He learned the alphabet when he was just 2 years old. And the first letter he memorized was letter O and X.
3rd day about C.. Click! and Camera!
Since it was a good day, i wanted to use up my film rolls so i could have them processed.
 And i thought it was a good day to teach about the letter C outdoors..
It was fun doing fieldwork, taking pictures with these kids. And not only did they have fun, but learned about this letter.

Homeschool Day 2

Since Pia enjoyed homeschool with Andrew, she couldn't wait for the next day.
I needed to adjust our regular lessons with Andrew, so we have separate art class with Pia.
The second day was about letter B. I could not think of other crafts to make but a pinwheel (since it was windy that day). 
I just taught her that Breeze starts with the letter B... So she stuck that in her mind :D
the Breeze that makes the pinwheel spin starts with letter B! (ain't that cute?)
Oh well, another day for our exciting homeschool days...
