ABC Class

We started our alphabet class today.  I am mainly doing it for Alyssa. Logan can identlfy the alphabet already, but Alyssa does not seem to have the time/desire to sit down and work on them...so I thought maybe having a class would help her. 

We have a powerpoint presentation thay shows the letter of the day and different words that start with the letter...we sing the alphabet song and point at the letters as we sing them.  Then we end the class with an activity and a snack that we can tie to each letter.  Today we started with A.  We ate apples and did some archery.  Used our Merida suction cup arrows and shot them at the back door.

Hopefully the classes continue to go well.

Why?

So the kids have started asking WHY?  a lot more often now.  Unfortunately they seem to be asking the hard whys like..What happened to Nemo's Mommy?  and What happened to Elena's Mommy (on Zoro)?

I guess they are paying attention to what they are watching more and more.
