🌟 Lumi Academy — Level 1: Little ExplorersHow to Use

Welcome to Your Curriculum Workbook! 🐱

This workbook is your companion to Lumi Academy — the interactive learning app that makes homeschooling feel like an adventure. Use this workbook alongside the app for the best learning experience.

📋 How This Workbook Is Organized

This workbook has 4 subject areas, each broken into units:

Subject	Units	Skills
🔢 Numbers & Counting	4 units	Counting 1–10, shapes, colors, patterns
📖 Letters & Sounds	3 units	Alphabet, beginning sounds, rhyming
🌍 My World	3 units	Animals, weather, my body
🎨 Art & Music	2 units	Colors, mixing, rhythm

💡 Tips for Parents

Work through one unit at a time — there's no rush!
Read questions aloud to your child and write their answers for them if needed
Let your child trace and draw as much as possible — fine motor skills matter
Celebrate every completed page with a sticker or stamp
Open the Lumi app to reinforce each unit with games and lessons
Print extra copies of practice pages for more repetition

🐱

At this age, play IS learning. If your child loses interest, take a break and come back. Short 10–15 minute sessions work best for ages 2–4. Every child learns at their own pace — and that's perfectly okay!
