At home, we tend to study some sort of theme each week. I get a little carried away sometimes -- recipes, stories, crafts and coloring all follow whatever the theme may be. I have a lot of fun with it, Darren humours me and the girls don't know anything different, hehe. Whatever we're studying, I hang a word list on the fridge and then use those words throughout the week on tracer pages, word search puzzles, crosswords and crafts.
