First Day of 2nd Grade

Today was Carter's first day of school.  He is doing My Father's World 2nd grade curriculum, Adventures in U.S. History.  Im fairly certain, and hoping, that this will be our best and most enjoyable year yet.  Carter loves maps, presidents, and history facts so this is right up his alley.  Cooper is just doing basic Pre-K worksheets here but starting in September he will go to a once a week Pre-K class.  In January we will start My Father's World Kindergarten.  Here are our morning pictures before we started our day.

In addition to normal subjects he started Rosetta Stone Spanish Homeschool Edition.  He is LOVING it and didn't want to stop.  He says next he wants to learn Chinese and French.  He also had a great time going through his books during book basket time.

Cooper had a pretty good day but it's a lot harder for this little guy to sit and be still.  But we got through it with only a bit of whining and maybe a cry or two, haha.  His favorite part was using our Melissa & Doug Reusable Animal sticker packs and Melissa & Doug Transportation Reusable sticker pack.  I made up a story about a little boy who went to the airport and got on a plane to grandma's house.  While on the plane, he looked down and saw..... etc.  He used his stickers and scene pages to create what I was telling him.  A fun way to get him listen closely to what I am saying.  All in all we had a pretty good first day!
