Yes, we are doing phonics as well.. I think its going to take me a bit to get out of the needing to teach phase for myself.. And just enjoy learning by doing and exploration.

It is a big adjustment, when I first started home schooling I went crazy overboard with materials. As time went long I realized that all the crap is just that crap, and learning doesn't fit into a certain box. You will do great at this, I am sure. A little secret kids naturally want to learn, it is Public School and the teaching to pass a test and not true learning that kills a child's desire to learn. Learning through play helps keep that want to learn desire on fire.
