Pizza
Today, we'll be going to a library storytime, where they always have stories and a related craft, then we'll be headed to a homeschool gathering so the kids can interact with other homeschool kids and I can talk to actual, read adults not in a computer. Then, we'll be reading How Pizza Came to Queens
and doing a pizza number order worksheet. Then we'll make pizza using the dough we already made up in a prior lesson from Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day: 100 New Recipes Featuring Whole Grains, Fruits, Vegetables, and Gluten-Free Ingredients
. While that's cooking, we'll be continuing a study of nutritious foods and work on food related worksheets from the member section of enchantedlearning.com and some worksheets from ChefSolus.com

The Hungry Thing Rhyming
Today, we used The Hungry Thing
and The Hungry Thing Returns
as a focus to work on rhyming, since this is an important phonetic skill and learning to read is a primary focus right now. He is very resistant to sitting down and trying to read, though, so I'm forced to use tricks and games to get him to try. After we read the stories, we did some rhyming worksheets to reinforce the skill. We also played with rhyming puzzle cards.
Then, the rest of the day was spent making up silly rhymes when we talked.
