Well.. we didn't do so well as far as getting stuff done yesterday as far as education. Reagan read her Poingo books. We got a new one and she was thrilled though! I think that was about all we got done yesterday and I feel kind of bad about that. :-( We even missed reading our book chapter. Ugh.
Today she has been reading her Poingo books more; always good. But other than that, nothing yet. Once Adam goes for a nap, we'll sit down and catch up on The Secret Garden, and then do some other activity I manage to come up with. :-) We also need to bring our seeds inside. We have a science project that is ongoing; our garden. We planted seeds for this year, and placed them outside in a mini greenhouse. But our weather has been so terrible, suddenly cold and very windy again, that nothing has even germinated yet. We're hoping to bring them inside and get them started in here at least. The problem is that we planted them in Pete pots, so we'll need to have some sort of trays under them inside. Plus find a place to put them when the kids won't get into them.
The worst thing thus far today though would be my call to the Montessori school where we'd like to eventually send the kids. They were really nice, and answered all of my questions, but..... And you knew there's be a but. It turns out that although they use to test children in for kindergarten, due to changes in state law.. they can no longer test in kids with b-days after a September cut-off date. No, they can ONLY take children who are ALREADY 5 by an AUGUST cut off date. Which means Reagan has to wait a full 2 more years to start school. By that time I'm worried she's going to be SO bored in school. Ugh. Well Adam's down for a nap, so it's off to do some activities.. I'll try to report back on those later.
UPDATE:
We read 3 chapters of The Secret Garden.
Reagan has read Poingo books at least four times
We completed 6 pages of a Blues Clues letter workbook
Completed A and B in a 1st grade letter workbook
