Lego Math and Little blue Bible




This is Eli's Math lessons. It is an interesting way of teaching him how to count, add, subtract, learn his colors, enhance his motor skills and I think help his imagination and patience. Eli knows all his colors but for some reason he gets green and pink confused. He very often will call green pink and pink green. We are not sure why. Maybe that is how he sees them? He has done this for at least a year now. Anyway, he loves to do his math lessons everyday. And when he does his lesson and if he does them well he is allowed to build with the legos. Here is one of his creations.


It was a building with stairs on the side. He was very proud. He is doing so well............he is amazing me with his readiness to learn and his quickness. He is learning to read and can read these words:

See.......mat.......rat.......sat.....me......and he could read any words with r,a,t,s,m, and e in them. He knows all of those sounds and he knows how to sound out a word. Oh, I wanted to post a picture of him and his blue bible to show you how much he loves it. This is at a birthday party or get together in our apartment for his "girlfriend" Breanna. The whole time he carried his bible around and pretended to read it.

hey, I'm just a stranger who happened across your blog, but I wanted to comment that possibly your son is slightly color blind. It's relatively common in males, and reds, greens, and browns are supposed to be the most common colors to have problems differentiating. Just a thought.
btw, I'm also a mostly stay-home mom, a believer in Christ, and a homeschool mom to a wonderful 13 year old girl.
