Sequence chart:
The two baggies at the bottom hold the mornings and nightly cards, which can be attached via velcro in the appropriate sequence. This helps her to be accountable and responsible for her own daily rhythms of waking and preparing for bed. She's doing great and is just so proud of herself!

Started Preschool
The plan has always been to homeschool her and well lately I've considered enrolling her in a traditional preschool. She's bored and as a result been having many behavior issues(nothing out of control just enough to challenge me and make me wish calgon could REALLY take me away) Well I was out shopping the other night and found a few preschool workbooks, games, etc. I decided to give it a shot. I also rewrote a daily schedule and created and sequence chart for Olivia. She is LOVING it. She is BLOWING my MIND! I'm not sure yet how I feel about worksheets, I never did really see myself using them but Olivia sure is enjoying them. She is tracing letters and shapes, matching objects by color. Sorting, counting, and drawing. I am already seeing a huge difference in her behavior. I feel guilty knowing that what's most likely made the biggest impression on her is my blocking out periods of time throughout our day when I focus all of my attention on her alone. Two 15minute periods of time, who knew?

I am a former elementary teacher and I can tell you that most kids LOVE worksheets. My 3 year old son has been in a daycare/preschool situation since he was 18 months old. His teacher even sends homework home once a month just so we can see what they are working on, and he can't wait to do it.
