Homeschool update

We’ve been having a good time in our homeschool! Moving through studying Genesis, learning about creation and the flood, learning about a cubit and measuring how large Noah’s ark was, and comparing creation myths from various cultures. Learning some fundamentals of drawing with lines and ellipses. Playing bells and learning to identify notes, learning french pronouns and verbs, learning to play hopscotch. We also got to join the high school sophomores and the third and fourth graders in understanding micro-evolution by becoming finches and having to search for different kinds of beans in the grass with different kinds of “beaks”: chopsticks, spoons, and forks. We’ve also done lots of science on light. I highly recommend getting science kits that go with a book…it makes doing the experiments so much easier, I just go to the kit and grab the correct bag and we’re good to go. Both Cas and Ari have learned so much about light and colors and are asking great questions.

How’s your fall going? Doing anything fun or unusual? Doing any hands on learning? Adults can do it too…you don’t have to learn everything from a video, device or book.
