Working on life skills

Life Skills

My pyramid

For life skills we are working on learning about nutrition. I feel it's important to teach K early on about proper nutrition for the body for fuel. He already knows a bit from me but now I am teaching WHY I buy certain things and limit certain things. This 1st week it's basically teaching him what the pyramid is and what it shows us. This next week we start with learning about grains and why they are important and so on. While we are learning about each group we will also sit down together and plan lunched together based on what we've learned. I want him to not only learn about the subject from reading and watching but also applying the knowledge.

Our summer life skills will cover

my pyramid
exercise and me
personal care and why

Summer Schedule has started

We have a fun learning schedule for the summer planned. Can't wait to watch K learn some new and important subjects that we don't get to focus on as much in our school year. LOVE schooling year around.
