Day 167/175
As we are winding down on our last few days of school... we have finished off all our curriculum.. just finishing our days with some field trips, and such.
Today we did 4H... We made Safety Goggles with 2 liter bottles. (I know your dying to know how that was done.. pictures to come) and learned the history of them.
Then each child Read for 30 mins, and we went to the library..

Day 164/175
Today we had another Field Trip..
We had a class about Geography...
The kids learned about states, rivers, mountains, and oceans.. by using a huge map on the floor. Then put the states on it, in a big puzzle.
Then they learned about stories about Cinderella from around the world. How different cultures portrayed the story differently.
They had a really good time.. as soon as I get pictures off my phone, I will post them.
