first week
September 5th, 2008
This was our first week back at homeschooling (at least at anything remotely routine) and one of the themes of the week was ’squirrels and nuts’. We learned all about both, sang song and learned finger rhymes. It was great fun. I think the first week back is always a rough start for everyone, getting back into the swing of things. In addition, I always find myself feeling confused on short weeks. Not sure why….
Anyway, at the end of the week, we took the jar of nuts that was our table centrepiece for the week and the impetus for much discussion and wondering, and we cracked them all open. We were all delighted!!! We had almonds, peanuts (bug had to have something she could be successful at!), walnuts and pecans. Here’s a photo of the festivities.
I’m looking forward to next week when the themes are family and butterflies.
Enjoying the journey, Amanda
