Home school preschool with Shiana

So I found an awesome program for homeschooling Shiana. It has everything that she needs to know and work on before Kindergarten. It is only a 9 month "course" but she knows a lot of it so we should be able to squeeze a few months together. Hopefully we will have her ready for Kindergarten and I am going to play selfish mommy and say that I want her to be the smartest in her class (but I am pretty sure every parent says that about their kid). The main thing we have to work on is reading, writing, and letter recognition (she knows her alphabet, just not individual letters when asked to find them). So the plan for month 1 is:


Month 1 Reading     Consonant/Vowel Blends B,C
                                Short Vowel Sounds A
                                Long Vowel Sounds A
             Writing        A,B,C
                                Number 1,2
                                Copy Complete Words
              Arithmetic   Counting to 20
                                Circle & Rectangle
              Science       Feelings - Happy
                                Feelings - Angry
                                Feelings - Sad
                                Feelings - Scared
              Social Studies    Understanding Safety Rules
                                        Safety Rules - Group 1

So about mid-month or weekly or when ever I decide to do it I will update on how she is doing. They also have programs for 2 year olds and 3 year olds. I plan to start this the first on January and hopefully during the different holidays I can add in some extra stuff for her to do.
