First Month of Homeschooling

We are finishing up our first full month of homeschooling this week. It has gone pretty well and it is getting easier and easier to plan my lessons. Next month I am hoping I can add in some fun unit studies but for our first month we focused on the basics. I know there are some moms out there wondering what do we do when we homeschool so here are a few of the things we studied this month. Everything I use is FREE, which means you can use it too!!! This month we studied:

PHONICS- word familes of at, et, ag, eg, in, en, an, ig, am, ab, and it

sight words: the, of, and, a, to, in, is, you, that, it, he, for, was, on, are, as, with, his, they, at
