Teach Us to Number Our Days

Library day, yes it is already Monday, again! Time moves right along, and pages keep turning. Our book bag was filled to the brim from our visit today. We traveled to violin and then to the doctor and then to the dentist. In between each stop, Student was busy with her Dad-made Math worksheet, and books galore.

Compare and contrast of each author's variation of Cinderella, this was our Literary lesson today. Student chose the stories, and with no surprise, our first grader chose a royal story for our learning!

Continuing on increasing our number skills, we put our counting chart to work. Student helped create this, weeks ago with the scripture reading...
"Teach us to number our days, oh Lord."
And oh how this is timely, with our counting down 18 days to the expansion of our family. Approximately 18 days, but our Student is counting!

Seatwork continues in Phonics and Space. We created a sorting envelope exercise for our planet groups, similar to the lapbooking technique that our good friend Tonya introduced us to.

And Student says: Please help me cut these! Hey, all of the gas planets have rings!
Thanks, Dad for my addition and take-away worksheet. I got the bonus, even!
