Learning Through Life

Kids at this age are like sponges, the goal at this age is to expose them to different things and information. While they will learn information, it is not the main goal!

Please note that some things are religious-based. I will indicate all religious-based information with * on both sides of the information so if you would like to remove it from your homeschooling, feel free to do so!

Community Helpers:

When we call 911, we talk to a dispatcher. The dispatcher will ask you a bunch of questions, and then give you your next steps. <Tour of a dispatch facility would be good this week if you are able>

Social Skills:

It is important to be considerate. The phrase “excuse me” shows that you are being considerate of other people. If you need to get past someone, you say excuse me. If you are standing somewhere and someone says excuse me, move out of the way and apologize. If mom is talking to her friends and you need to talk to her, say “excuse me, I need to talk to you” and wait for her to talk to you.
