Wonder what this has to do with 'homeschooling'?!Well, mom encouraged me to 'apply' one of my prekindergarten skill:"Sorting".A pile for shirts, a pile for pants and so on.. Note from Mom: "SHH...No seriously...Thats what (one of) my intention was. ;-)"

My Animal Parade
On the Lighter side
My Food Pyramid & Money Game
We combined healthy diet with Money learning. For every food group I consume in a day, I get to pocket a penny/nickel/dime/ quarter per serving as specified in the pockets. We made little pockets out of transparent album sheets and stick it to the wall and put matching color sheets to go with the food group in the chart. Nice incentive to consume food in all groups and cool way to learn money. This is my food (piggy) bank - I can use the money I earn towards things of my choice. :-)
Read Mom's game extensions here using this chart.

My Frog Palace & More
My Space Science - Lapbook
We did a 6 folder wide Lapbook about planets and space. We did this in 2004. This I think is my first Lapbook ever. I colored all the planets and helped mom glue them on.
My Space Science Lapbook - Closeup
OOPS..I need to take away Pluto - You know Pluto is no more considered a planet. :-) I listened to the news oneday.
My Sea Animals Lapbook
We went to the Aquarium and I sat down with mom to make this Lapbook about sea animals. I colored and glued the fishes on the front. We made mini Tab Books listing the animal and its primary food. We also made a pizza book to go with this lapbook.
My Sea Animals - Pizza Books
We made Pizza Type Books to sort sea animals with tentacles, gills. I glued the pictures on.
My Story - No Glue!
This was my own story that I narrated (in Jan 2006) and Mom wrote it down. We made illustrations using scrapebook papers and glued them on. It is a story about a duck that runs into a problem with the glue..You can click on any picture to see them big & clear.
Celebrity Chutes & Ladders - Custom made
Click to enlarge. I made this Chutes and Ladder Board game with Mom's help. We did this in 2004..But yet to laminate it.
My Time Lapbook
We learnt Time telling and Mom ended the session with a lapbook activity. This is the front of my Time Lapbook. I wrote the numbers on the clock face. :-)
My Time Lapbook - Inside
On the Left side we put a match box fold books showing the minutes/seconds in 15 unit increments. Right side is a layer book and flap book. center is a drawing of mine about the clock.
My Time Lapbook - Left Side
We made 4 match box folds and I colored the elapsed time for 15, 30, 45, 60 minutes in the clock.
My Time Lapbook - Right side
This is the right hand side of the Lapbook.
We made a Layer book contributing a layer for second/minute/hour/day/week/month/year each.
I wrote some corresponding facts on the inside of each layer.
The bottom right is a look up book with clock faces showing time
to the hour and half hour. A practice book to review the concepts.
My Alphabet Lapbook
I made this Alphabet Lapbook when I was learning my letter sounds. Ofcourse my mom helped me with the lapbook.
This is the shutter fold type lapbook made out of an ordinary file folder.
My Alphabet Lapbook - Left Side
These are few of the Accordian mini books from the lapbook.
A handy way to review my beginning sounds..Click to enlarge.
