Homeschooling the Kulilits: 12th & 13th Week

At this point, I'm so happy about the Kulilits. That is because they were already the ones initiating to start our homeschool for the day. Immediately after they finishes their breakfast, they'll tell me "Mommy, let's do playschool!". We coin "homeschool" as "playschool" because we learn through play and I think that's appropriate to their age right now (they are more than 2 1/2 years old when we started). The Kulilits are playing and learning at the same time which makes them more interested to learn more. Thus, they are enjoying and having fun during the process.

Week 12

In week 12, we studied about letter J and its sound, counting by 2's and some simple rhythmic patterns. We also learned about Hannah (how she asked God for a child, how her prayers were answered, how she was thankful to God for answering her prayers and how she kept her promise to God), Samuel (how he obeyed God), Saul (how God made him king), being joyful and how prayer keeps us close to God.

Here are some of the activities that we did in week 12:

Drawing activity with the key idea of Samuel answering "Yes" to God when he heard God's voice as he was sleeping...

Drawing activity showing the anointing of Saul to be king...

For letter recognition...

For counting...

Week 13

In Week 13, we studied about letter K and its sound, order (smallest to biggest; biggest to smallest) and counting by 2's.  We also learned about David (from being shepherd to king), kindness and the value of trust.

Here are some of the activities that we did in week 13:

Crafts about David the sheperd...

For counting...

Drawing activity about David and Goliath...

For letter recognition...

That's all for weeks 12 and 13! =)
