This center is for OLDER kids. My nine-year-old spent the day on it.
Materials Needed: Combination lock, Dollar Store cookie tray, construction paper or foam for liner, written instructions for the combination.
How-To:
1. Set up materials as in tray.
2. Follow your own instructions a few times to make sure they make sense.
3. Tell child that you have something to show them.
4. Following your instructions, open the lock and close it.
5. Allow child to try.
6. Expect questions and repeat demonstrations all day long.
I jumped over from Little House blog. Love all the info! We're gonna give homeschooling a go when my 3 year old is ready. I'm excited about a lot of these ideas.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious about the pros and cons of the Classical style since you've switched from a more C. Mason approach. So many of the Catholic curriculum are Classical and I wouldn't have chosen that approach but definitely want to start off with a pre-done plan for my own sanity.
Thanks for both fun blogs!
