Going from part-time homeschooling to full-time homeschooling is going to be a transition for all of us. We haven’t ever done a morning basket (or morning time, some might call it circle time) before, but looking forward to getting started this year.
The purpose of using a morning basket is to start your day off with truth, goodness and beauty. With the things that matter the most! Which are being together, reading and talking about Jesus, reading scripture, diving into rich literate and the art as well as having some laughs! 🙂
So what is in our morning basket?
- A Wild Ride Through the Bible: Adventure Bible Handbook
- Scripture Memory System
- Gratitude Journals
- S.U.I.L.T. Music Appreciation
- Burst Training popsicle sticks- choose 3 a day, me too!
- 1-2+ chapters from our read -alouds
A great book to read for us homeschooling mamas, is Teaching from Rest. You MUST check it out if you haven’t read it!
Our read-aloud list:
- Sarah, Plain and Tall
- Charlotte’s Web
- Doctor Dolittle
- The Egypt Game
- Moses in Egypt
- The Midwife’s Apprentice
- Ramona Quimby, Age 8
