1st Day of School - SUCCESS!

If you missed "what the children woke up to" from last nights' post
check it out HERE!

We eased back into school today with our full time schedule...this year I had all three of them in "school".

Sammie  - Preschool
Molly - Kindergarten
Zachary - 2nd grade



Healthy breakfast of Super Mario Brother Cupcakes...LOL



A few wax mustaches to set mood right....



Started with our Devotional from "Jesus Calling" (I recommend this to anyone
homeschooling and wants to incorporate Christ into their studies)


This year we are incorporating The Pledge of Allegiance into our
morning routine.





They will take turns holding the flag. Zachary switched his arms right after
this picture...lol...



Our new Prayer Pail...I write things that we want to pray about and stick them into the pail. When it comes time for prayers we all pick one out and pray specifically for that person/event etc. Kids are loving it!




Each child had one of these at their spot...
Thanks to I Heart Naptime for these cute printables!



2nd Grade..
Super Mario Brothers is our theme this week....

Mario Brother Lapbooks - used some awesome 
materials from The Linton Academy  to help me out!



Weather charting (taken from Homeschool Creations)


Some Math Blaster fun!


Having a great time with some review quizes from 


Preschool - Sammie


Color recognition Lapbook



Just happy to be at the big table with the other kids...


Love love love these dauber worksheets from 2TeachingMommies



Little puzzle time...

Filling in our weather on our new Morning Board - inspired

It was a little tough at times with Sammie...she wanted my attention a lot so that took away from the other two...however, when she napped I was able to give more time to Zachary and start our weather unit.


Here is one of my newest organization tools for this year...


It was a gift from Bubby....I love it!


They each have a cubby (mailbox) where I can put mail, letters, gift certificates
etc...




On the bottom are the childrens' new Chore Charts.
(again another awesome FREE printable from Homeschool Creations)


Praying all our friends in public school had a great day back today!  Thinking of you mommas 
too with children attending school for the 1st time!

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
