Spring Focus: Worms

Welcome to our little unit on W O R M S.
In this blog post you’ll learn some things about worms with us! I chose to do this following our bird unit because well, birds eat worms! I knew it would be an easy concept for the littles to grasp onto and be able to flow into from the last and still be able to enjoy watching our birds in the feeder and still talk about them too if they wanted.

I grabbed a few books at the library, we learned a few poems, learned about the anatomy, fun facts and life cycle of a worm and we made a womery! The kids weren’t huge fans of touching the worms this year but they have been enjoying watching the creation of our wormery come to life and the little activities we did throughout this time.

I have a 2 year old, 3 year old and a special needs child (cognitively another 3 year old) so my plan is always to keep it simple but still meaningful and fun!

Spring Focus: Birds

Hello, Spring!

We are just getting the warmer weather headed this way so I have been planning out our upcoming Spring season with some fun things to focus on! My plan for this year is to move intentionally slow, enjoy what we want to learn, what the kids are interested in, enjoy being able to get outside, get dirty, explore and focus on some of the key things that make each season what it is while incorporating some crafts and projects along the way.

Welcome to our unit on B I R D S.
It was such a fun time collecting books from our home and at the library, doing a family project together, filling our bird feeders, learning the anatomy of a bird and watching our birdhouses fill with love again. The kids enjoyed watching the birds come to the window feeder every day and they have been able to see a bird mama start to build her own nest in it! I added a fun little snack in here as well and our daughter’s name is Wren, so it was also fun to chat about the wren bird this season too!

Welcome to Our Hopeful Homeschool

hello!

If you’re noticing this new tab here in our story, let me tell you - it’s something that has been slowwwly forming itself through our purpose and through some extra answered guidance and prayers! One thing after another has been answered so clearly, people have been sent to me, things have been shown to me…

As our older kids of a blended family have grown, routines have definitely changed and everything has shifted around here. The babes are no longer ‘babies’ and we have entered the time where we talk about schooling in the future while we enter a whole new phase of life in our family.

I’m so excited to announce that we have chosen to homeschool.
