Piano, Preschool, Practice

We always seem to have a busy day each year. This year it's Thursdays.
SCRIPTURES - Recited the 13th Article of Faith, Jared is trying to memorize it.
READ ALOUD - Made granola for breakfast, read another chapter of Trumpet of the Swan to the kids while they enjoyed their granola.
READING - Had Clarissa practice her sight words, PP, she finished drawing pictures to help her remember. Then I had her read the book she got from her tutor about the word SAW. Also had her read a Waterford Institute Read with Me book called At Camp that uses the word SAW on each page. It also uses many words that start with the letter C, so I had her cut out a large C and draw words that start with C. She liked that. Read some Breakthrough to Literacy Take Me Home books to Amber and Krystal about rhyming, counting, colors, and days of the week. We sang the Days of the Week song. Read a Waterford Institute book about Opposites to the girls then had them go on a scavenger hunt for the opposites of hot, hard, sour and loud. They loved that. Had Krystal read the Primer level Dolch Sight Words, she did great, only needed help with about half of them.
ART - Jared was working on his mid-eastern tile while I was reading with the girls and Clarissa was making her letter C.
MUSIC - Jared, Clarissa, and Krystal started their piano lessons today. This is Krystal's first time, she was very excited. Melinda says they all did really well.
STORYTIME - Took Amber to the library for storytime, but we were the only ones so I just read several books to her alone, several were about dots (I think I should do a little unit on dots).
PRESCHOOL - Amber's first day of Mom Preschool today. The theme this month is All About Me, it was at Adalyn's house. She loves Preschool, she brought her mat to sit on, her show and tell, and her backpack with pencil box full of supplies.
SPELLING - I used the Amazing Handwriting Worksheet Maker to make spelling practice sheets for Clarissa and Krystal. I asked them to put their words in a sentence, then I typed the sentence leaving out the spelling word. They had to trace the sentence (handwriting practice) and write in the missing word.
WRITING - Jared wrote about Beowulf. Jared also did his vocab and state capital.
MATH - Jared and Clarissa played the calculator game again. We also did graphing with trail mix. How many raisins, nuts, bananas etc. Jared and I played the Gorp Game, Family Math pg. 138. The girls listened to a math facts CD on the way to Clarissa's tutoring.
P.E. - Jared and Clarissa had soccer practice and the girls and I walked the track during tutoring.
TUTORING - Clarissa learned about the word FIND (which she recognized as one of her sight words).
Sight word practice, piano practice, handwriting practice, soccer practice...practice, practice, practice.
