First Day of School Pictures!!

Here are the pictures of Taiger's FIRST DAY of preschool!!!!

He was SO excited the night before that he hid his face when I told him we were starting school the next morning. :)


An eager little scholar



Here is Taiger practicing writing the letter "A"


The third orange one, Taiger did HIMSELF! Pretty good, I'd say!


Since we are learning about Space, we HAD to paint a GIANT picture of Space! As we learn about each planet, we are going to make that planet and hang it in front of our Space picture!

Taiger got carried away and had to use his foot. The mischievous smile on his face proves he knew what he was doing was NOT a good idea...but, since this is HOMESCHOOL, ANYTHING GOES! So, he didn't get in trouble for painting with his foot. In fact, I was really glad that he would use his whole body to learn! That is really good, actually!


Due to the foot painting, we had to have BATH TIME in the middle of school (the joys of homeschooling!). Here are Taiger's little foot prints leading into the bathroom



After bath time, Taiger had a snack! I cut different foods into "planets" (circles) and put them on his chart of the planets. Each planet was covered by a different food. As he ate them, I commented on him eating that planet ("Oh! You ate Mars!"..."Can you eat Earth?") By the end, he was saying, "Can I have another Jupiter?" LOL! (By the way, Jupiter was a slice of marshmallow!)

After snack, he built space ships with Legos. (GREAT for fine motor development!). He LOVES to build with Legos, so this was a fun part of school! (Notice he never re-dressed after bath time...the child HATES being dressed! Glad he is homeschooled! If he took off his clothes and ran around naked in public school, I would be IN TROUBLE! :D!!!!!!)

He had to stick his head right in to his Lego bucket to find the right pieces for his space ship. Silly boy!!


WHAT A FUN DAY!!!!!!!
