InstaDiary View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sarah Ganaway (@kitskornerdotcom) Today I made a mother daughter journal from a dollar store composition notebook. I am hoping it opens a safe line of communication between me and my 9 year old before those tween hormones take over we will see!! #imperfect #journaling #motherdaughter […]

I completely forgot to post yesterday! The first time all month that I forgot. My only excuse is that yesterday was our first day back to lessons after the holiday and it was rough.. I mean R-O-U-G-H rough! Kaitlynn is a great kid, she has an amazing ability to soak up information like a sponge. […]

A few bar graphs worksheets I put together to help Kaitlynn better understand bar graphs. Finding worksheets online for free is no big deal, finding multiples is. We work on something over a course of time and if the worksheets are the same (not a lot of colors and graphics) she pays attention better. These […]

Halloween activities : Frankenweenie & Trick or Treating Downtown Anacortes, WA No, I did not overdose on candy yesterday… Although I came close to begging for it from a few of those awesomely chocolately buckets people were offering to my kid! I did overdose on walking tho! It’s amazing how far we walked in such […]

When we first got to Washington, I was expecting nothing but rain. However, they were having a wonderful summer and it has only recently came to an end. So for about two weeks now it’s rained almost daily, some days we see sun and then get rain… On the news last night they called November […]

Amazing! Spectacular! Mixed drills this week of addition 0-3.. Her first attempt on Tuesday was 5 minutes 17 seconds.. Today she’s up to 3:43:06!! I’m so proud lol We also did worksheets on counting, rounding, and tens & ones.    ijourney1018 {@} gmail {dot} com meandmyinkpen {@} gmail {dot} com About Me : Buy Me […]

Our next round of math bingo included the 2’s through the 4’s on addition. The whole purpose of the game is for her to learn the answers quickly and at a glance as opposed to adding. It’s working! She loves playing and gets faster with each round! Download Free Printable Math Bingo 2’s-4’s Here    […]

Our first math bingo was just 0’s and 1’s… This was a brilliant idea! I’d seen them elsewhere but wanted more control over what math problems went into the game. So I made my own. I’ll upload the others as well so that you can have the next stages too. I printed mine onto cardstock […]

Using a variety of weather fonts, my graphics editor, and excel.. I created a Weather Chart for Kaitlynn. We have been discussing weather in our lessons and the book we’re using provided a 7 day chart but I wanted something that would last longer and wasn’t taking up the entire wall. Don’t let my odd […]

    When Kaitlynn was first born, I decided quickly that under no circumstances would I put her into Antlers schools. That meant either Rattan or homeschool. I decided homeschool. Over the next couple of years, I began to doubt my ability to homeschool and whether it was fair to her to miss out on […]

What a clever idea! This is a wonderful way to put the power into your child’s hand and show them how to face fears.. it’s all about the tools. PrettyPrudent.Com really get kudos for this adorable idea! View Tutorial Here    ijourney1018 {@} gmail {dot} com meandmyinkpen {@} gmail {dot} com About Me : Buy […]
