This morning I did some Banana Bread Maths with Misha. I was absolutely amazed at how much he remembered as it’s been a few weeks since we last did some baking together. From doubles & halves to how many ml in a cup, teaspoon & tablespoon, he remembered it all...
I realize more & more as we journey along that teaching methods make all the difference. At first I was apprehensive of removing the worksheets completely, but now I see, just with the decision to home educate, this too was the best for him… from time to time now he even asks for Maths worksheet & for now those are the only worksheets he’s doing.
Last weekend I caught him reading to his cousin. He’s really come such a long way since we started.. from hating books all together to actually reading to others.

*Of course Jesse’s been nagging for pancakes since last week, so this evening we did Pancake Maths. Misha got to measure & mix the ingredients whereafter Jesse did the frying of the pancakes.
