Cursive Message of the Day

Children thrive on predictable rhythms, and we use a lot of them in our school year! Here are just a few examples:

Monthly Farm Visits
We had a great time today at The Log Cabin Ranch!

Weekly Letter Writing

Daily Mad Minutes

+ Sep/Oct +
- Nov/Dec -
x Jan/Feb/Mar x
÷ Apr/May/Jun ÷

Another fun daily routine is the Cursive Message of the Day! This encourages children to work on their cursive workbooks (here is our favorite series) and it's fun!

NEW in the Cursive Message of the Day, I'm using Montessori Command Cards as the message. The children have to read the message and complete the task ("Bring me a red pencil" "Look out the window"). They love it!

It's also fun to create Command Cards for your beginning reader, if you have a 1st or 2nd grader at home. It's sooo satisfying to correctly decode the words and complete the task! Here are some simple ones I like from Etsy.
