I am updating everyone to announce a website I’m opening up that I’ve kept for some time now to myself as I was building it. I never thought of publishing our educational progress but the more I’ve used it the more I realize it might be interesting to others too. So I’ll be posting a […]
It has been a month since Lily has been united with her service dog Timber. Below you will find links to the updates so that you can read the changes that are happening and be a part of the joy that are lives are experiencing. I hope you enjoy reading. To view the […]
I have compiled together new information that reflects where Lily is right now in June 2015. Please take some time to visit Lily’s Story page and find the new post there named Lily’s Story: Part 3 or click this link. Additionally, I have gathered notes about skills in general that Lily has been successful in […]
We want to thank you. Except we don’t just want to thank you. We want to wrap our arms around you & give you back the kindness you’ve given us. Every donation received is appreciated. I never thought we could get this far. And here we are a month away from something Lily has waited […]
The time has come. Next month we are traveling North to meet and bring home our daughters new life long companion, her autism service dog.
Lily has lifted her voice. She sings. And now she speaks. I’ll say it again. Lily speaks.
We would like to thank you for your recent donations towards Lily’s service dog. The time is approaching & soon she will meet which dog will become her new partner. We will keep you posted.
Above shown is the decimal system materials where we played “the bank game” which is based in montessori. You name an amount and we make it up with the wooden tiles where the kiddo then goes to the ‘bank’ or the thousands, hundreds, tens, ones area and they get that amount. We write it down […]
We have been covering many subjects lately, but for the most part it has weighted heavily on reading and writing (handwriting) and math. I have not had the time to post as much as it takes time to upload the days individual work so I have been creating mini posts to track what we’ve been […]
The girls love Bob Books. So we have the series and they read it at least 2-3 times a week. We did an activity which incorporated the words we learn from Bob Books as a spelling test of sorts. I called out words to each kiddo giving each a different word. And they spelled out […]
A few samples of some of the materials we have been working with. Though primarily our major focus has been on reading and writing skills. The girls have been working on telling time…so we started with skip counting by fives with the short five chain first, then the long five chain. This made the transition […]
We have been focusing on handwriting skills the past few days while trying to incorporate reading at the sane time. The girls have spent a good chunk of time learning reading skills on their Lexa software on their iPads. We followed up on that with physical worksheets where they could practice writing skills alongside what […]
Here is Part II of our updates of Lily & Timber. I hope you enjoy reading. Lilybird’s Freedom: Part II
It’s hard to remember the baby steps when Lily was a little over a year old. We had a Fisher Price toy garage with cars that had a little ramp on it that was a favorite in the house. Maggie joyfully picked up the cars and slid them down the ramp effortlessly as children do. […]
