As a veteran home school mom of 22 years with 2 graduates and 7 other other children working their way up, I still enjoy reading how others approach teaching the elementary years. I always wonder at the families who have a full day of work for their kindergarten and first or second grade kiddos. Anyway, I like to keep it simple and stick with just one or two things for the little guys that way they don't feel overwhelmed and they have lots of time to explore. But I digress. What really caught my attention was that you are teaching a child with special needs. We have an 8 month old son with Down syndrome. We have been on a crash course in special needs since his diagnosis at birth. I am always tucking away ideas for him and I think your daily sheets would be fabulous! I'm thinking of something laminated that could be worked with fat dry erase markers? It seems the fat ones would be easier for kids with motor skill issues? One more note while we are on the topic, any chance we might see a special needs edition of the carnival in the future?
