Setting up for Bigger and Little Hearts

Post by cocomimilily » Fri Aug 27, 2010 2:04 pm

Can anyone help me find a post that My3sons posted regarding how to set up for Bigger?? She had pics with instructions for getting ready for the year... I am starting in 3 days and would love to see her step-by-step set up of Bigger, but I can't find it.
Also, any suggestions for notebooks/binders or materials needed for Little Hearts? What about other art supplies to have on hand besides the ordinary crayons/glue/scissors??
Thanks so much!

Hi, we are in our 5th week of Little Hearts and so far some of the things we've needed are construction paper (including gray, a hard to find color - we used light blue), flashlights (with working batteries!), masking tape, a lightweight scarf or tissue paper, aluminum foil, cotton balls, sequins or glitter, red crepe paper/streamer, 10 plastic cups, paper plates, blank index cards, glue sticks, a blindfold, a magnifying glass, spices, and brown lunch bags. We've used a laundry basket for one of the bible verse games we've done several times. Looks like this week we need honey, nonfat dry milk, peanut butter, and wax paper. Hope that helps!

ETA: I forgot to mention we have a binder for me (for my lesson plans, calendar, course of study, homeschool umbrella school paperwork, etc.) and a Mead Flex binder for my daughter. We keep her work in the binder (separated by tabs). I also bought a tub and an expandable folder for her artwork since it doesn't fit well in the binder.
