Introducing our Animal Characteristics (Vertebrate) Pack with tons of activity sets that will suite your young students' needs.  This learning material is more than just sorting or matching activities.  What we have in this learning pack are realistic illustrations of each characteristics for better retention of concepts and tons of hands-on learning opportunities for young students to work on.  This Montessori Vertebrate Characteristics learning pack was basically designed for children ages 5 years and older.

Animal Characteristics Learning Pack
With this learning material, your students will be able to learn the characteristics of amphibians, mammals, reptiles, fish, and birds through visual representation and hands-on activities.  There are 8 characteristics provided for each animal for you to explore.

Montessori Inspired Blue Series - Learning about Consonant Blends

Wednesday, March 13, 2019

With Vito reading CVC words and sight words, we are now moving to the Blue Series.  The Blue Series is a Montessori approach in learning consonant blends and digraphs.  I made an entire set of blue series materials for Vito to use in the course of his learning.  We will work on these materials  and move on to the next set as he progresses.  In this post, I will give you an overview of the materials and how we are going to use them.

It is important to note that the blue series (blends and digraphs) comes after the pink series.  Once the child is familiar with letter sounds and can basically read CVC words (pink series) then he/she can move on to the blue series.

Introducing Life Cycles to Younger Kids

Tuesday, February 26, 2019

Springtime is all about life cycles in our home.  And I'm often asked how do I introduce life cycles to our little ones and to those who couldn't visualize the concept of metamorphosis, larva and pupa, and etc.  It's pretty easy and simple though.  I start by telling stories that like humans, baby animals come about through their mommies and daddies.  Some start from egg and then they develop or grow into an adult just like humans.  You also need to have some learning materials to help explain these things better to  kids.  Because we are observing the "Montessori" philosophy in our homeschool, we use learning materials that can provide realistic presentations of these life cycles to the kids.  Also if possible, provide a hands-on learning experience using the same learning materials or through real life observations in nature.

Learning About Sharks for Kids

Tuesday, February 19, 2019

Vito has been really interested in sharks lately.  We had some Shark Unit Study (Montessori Inspired Shark Study for Kids) years ago together with my eldest, but Vito was so young then that all he could ever do was do some simple matching activity with our Safari Toob Sharks.  Now that he's a bit older, I prepared some simple activities for him to learn more about sharks, what's their difference with whales, and how similar are they to humans.

Asia Continent Study for Kids

Monday, February 11, 2019

We love to travel and going to places, thus geography is very important in our homeschool and I make sure that we do continent and country studies yearly.  Now, this is not the first time I introduced Vito to Asia.  We've worked with a lot of continent activities before and because he is much older now and able to understand and grasp concepts, I reintroduced Asia once again.  Below are some of the works we had for the past 2 weeks we spent on learning about Asia.  It took us 2 weeks to finish because he got sick within the time frame so we paused in between.

Here are some of the activities that we included in this year's Asia Study:

Valentine's Day Letter and Number Cards

Fun Thermometer Reading in Space

Vito loved our penguin thermometer reading activity and because of this I have to include something similar in our Outerspace Preschool Mini Unit.  This is great for learning how to recognize “tens” and for learning how to read a thermometer.

Seasonal Pattern Blocks Mats (with FREE Download)

Friday, October 19, 2018

I am so excited to share the latest craze in our house lately, the pattern block mats!  I made these printable materials because my boys are totally obsessed with making “pictures” and objects using our pattern blocks (bought from Amazon).  We own this and the magnetic version since Vito was a baby but the boys’ needs keep growing and I decided to provide them with picture mats so they can create not just plain pattern block objects but objects that integrate in beautiful backgrounds for a more imaginative play.  The best thing about this printable is that we can print and reuse them over and over again!

Preschool Unit Ocean Learning Pack

Friday, June 15, 2018

Summer is finally here, and look what I have for you! 30 OCEAN THEME ACTIVITIES for your PRESCHOOLERS are all about sea life and the ocean!  This learning pack is a collection of activities we worked on for years at home with my two boys and has everything you need for weeks or a month-long of learning.  These are engaging, educational, and, most importantly, fun!  Most of the activities encourage the parent/teacher to use manipulatives, promoting hands-on and play-based learning.  These activities are designed for 3-4 years old (preschoolers or kindergarten), and they aim to immerse the child in the concepts rather than force them to memorize them.

We’ve done a lot of world continents activities for the past years but this has got to be one of the boys’ favorites!  We had so much fun forming the continents with our playdough.  This is such a lovely learning activity not just about continents but a fun way to keep those little fingers at work, promoting hand-eye coordination and concentration.

FREE Beginning Letter Sound Posters and Cards (SAMPLER)

Sunday, May 13, 2018

We are starting a new approach to our literacy activities.  To have some variety in our literacy activities I decided to pause our usual pink series (Beginning Letter Sound Activity Sheets) and move to Jolly Phonics.  Jolly Phonics is a curriculum used here in Ireland (and UK).  My eldest loved it, especially the action sounds that went along with the letters.
