home work

teaching does not come naturally to me

it really doesn't

i even feel uncomfortable trying to teach my kids

but i really don't want noah to regress over the summer with reading or writing

so i've been printing some worksheets from education.com 

for the kids to work on while olive naps in the morning

they both think it's a lot of fun

and it gives me some free time to do the dishes and clean up

while they work on things

it's the sort of thing that works way better

since they do it together, i don't think it would work

for just one of them individually 

noah practices 1st grade worksheets while hazel works on preschool

the other day i was having hazel practice the letter "s"

and she said, "just like in my name!"

no....so next we practiced "z"
