For reading lessons we are using Reading Eggs which we got a super awesome deal on for Black Friday, which is when our free trial ended as well. It has a math program attached to it, but we haven’t used it much. For math we are just working on counting and number recognition right now. He loves to point out both numbers and letters that he recognizes on various things, like counting down on the microwave or the game clock during Football.

Now that you know a little more about what we use, let’s talk about how I plan out our week. Sunday’s are when I sit down and do all my planning for homeschool, business, etc. I start out with reviewing the books we will need for the week and what pages or chapters we need to read. I also take a peek at the following week to see what books we need to place on hold with the library or see if there is a version we can download on Libby.

All of this info goes into my Bloom Planner which is seriously my lifeline, along with our Google Calendar. That way I can refer to it each day to figure out what we are supposed to be reading, what we need to expand on with a YouTube video, or what art project we are going to be working on. I also usually take Sunday to organize the books, in order, in our tote, or just stack them near the bed. We tend to knock out most of our work during breakfast.
