Brylee is very excited to be doing school like big brother and so far it is going well.
These are a few pictures of our set up. I don't have an extra room to use so our dining room doubles as the school room. I have worked hard to get it functional and organized and this year I feel much closer to my goal.

| Here I have our blocks, puzzles, stack a doos, manipulatives, books, folders.... |

| More storage space: the orange for Bodie, blue for Brylee, one for crafts, and one for teacher stuff. |
I have tried to focus on being prepared every day, having things printed and ready to go ahead of time. I am really stressing this week on little things like putting your boxes back after you are finished and putting finished work in their files. Also, I have them help clean up when we are finished. These things are small but bad habits lead to a big mess. The last two days I have managed to serve meals on a clean dining room table! Last year that never happened.

| Our board that has the letter of the week we are working on and our work charts. |
I decided for Brylee we would spend a week on each letter of the alphabet. I am picking different things for her to do every day that involve the letter A. Bodie knows his letters and sounds really well but I have him name things that start with A just so he can join in too.

| she loved this one! |
Ok we also have to have a little time for fun learning too! A few things they like to do.....

| He loves making designs with these! |

I feel like this year is going to be sooo much easier because Brylee has reached an age where I can combine some things and her attention span is much better.
Of course Brooke will be crawling soon and that is certain to throw a few kinks in my plans. Oh well roll with the punches.
