What do you do in an average homeschooling session?

Esme and a parent sit down together and start with a warm-up - usually a repeat of a theme activity or a fine motor development activity. We go over our sight words (usually two a week) and do a lesson around our book of the week. Our book of the week usually relates to a theme Esme has chosen to study. We continue to work on language arts for about the half of our time. Then we take "Milk Break" and Esme gets a choice of activities that she enjoys, such as books on tape, PlayDoh, lacing cards, Chutes and Ladders, etc. After choice time we work on Math, focusing on counting, patterns, attributes, and simple addition and subtraction. The last part of our session is focused on the theme that Esme has chosen. We break each theme into smaller segments and focus on one segment a week. We try to include outdoor activities when the weather is good, and we also try to incorporate physical movement into this time.
