It's getting closer!

I got the videos in the other day and I finally had some time to sit down and watch the first two days' lessons, and I am so excited! It was a lot more interactive than I thought it would be and the teacher, Mrs. Bere (who is just absolutely precious, btw) has them up and down from their seats quite a bit which will be very helpful for my busy-body-boy :) I'm also considering having him sit on an exercise ball instead of a chair so he can keep himself in motion while he watches, but I'm not sure about that yet.

I'm also quite at ease about planning now as, I realized after seeing the videos, I will not have much planning to do at all. There are activities built into the lessons and she walks through them, so I will basically just be on standby in case he needs help. I'm sure this is probably a good thing, but I'm a little bummed that I won't be very involved.. on the other hand, that does give me time to do the household chores while He's doing his lessons so that we can spend time doing fun things together afterwards!

So, since I have practically zero planning to do curriculum-wise, I've decided to put all of my energy into our dining room classroom. It's such a small space and we have almost no storage in this little apartment, so it's super hard to get organized and keep organized! Hopefully, we'll do better this year at keeping it tidy. I'm going to work on that in these next few days!

I may post some pics when it's all done!
