Aliyah seems to prefer maths activities over language ones at the minute. She has been doing some simple multiplication with the bead bars, simple addition with the addition strip board and some long addition using the stamp game.
Here's a picture of her and her friend concentrating very hard on their maths work.
Here she has traced around the horse puzzle and is writing labels to stick on. Although she enjoys labelling and glueing she still gets very upset when her letters don't quite come out exactly how she would like them to.
Hannah's favourite pass time is definitely still playing with mud! Here she is working with her friend to 'paint' the playhouse in mud. They did a pretty good job.
Apart from mud she has been working on the decimal system, reading and counting numbers up to 1000. She has also been doing some simple addition with the coloured beads. However, I soon realised that her writing skills are not really up to writing the answers down yet so I decided to put the answers down on card for her so she could choose the correct one and glue it on her sheet.
Hannah is showing much more interest in the pink / blue / green series than Aliyah ever seemed to and she will even do the activities on her own if she is in the right mood.
I don't have many photos of Livvy during our Montessori time but here's a picture of her at our fortnightly forest school. She is following in Hannah's footsteps and loves the mud.
