Circle Time

Today's post will show what we do for Circle Time. We do this 7 days a week (or at least try to). This happens after breakfast and cleanup time, to start our day.
                                                                                                                                                              

We start off with our Velcro Calendar, which I purchased at a school supply store, laminated it, and added the Spanish days of the week and the Velcro.

I then laminated the square numbers that I also purchased at a school supply store and put the attracting Velcro on the opposite side.






I made a printable of the English/Spanish days of the week and months of the year, and also laminated those.

As you may of noticed, all of these things are hole punched and ringed, so that I can hang them on a curtain rod. Since we have chosen the "debt free" path, we currently are living in a 5th wheel trailer, to save up to build a home; more on that in another post. Hence, I must make do with the space I have!

After Calendar Time, we move to our "black board" which has the rest of our Circle Time subjects on it. We reiterate what the date today is and move on to "today's weather", and "yesterday, today, tomorrow", both printables from Confessions of a homeschooler.



We then will cover the "Bible Memory Verse" of the week and "The Character Quality" of the week.



The bottom section, is our "flash card" section. Here we cover:
The letter of the week
The sign language letter of the week
The shape of the week
The color of the week
The number of the week





The last thing we do in Circle Time is read our book of the week, which will correspond to the letter of the week.

Hope you enjoyed this post!!
