Another School Update

We've done a lot of fun things in our homeschool lately. I thought I should post some pictures of our fun times!


Recently we studied rocks, so this is the boys painting a rainbow rock garden.


We did 4 weeks of wild animals. Penguins was one week. So I drew (at least attempted to draw) 3 different penguins as their actual height. The Emperor penguin is actually 4 feet tall! I learn so much when I'm teaching them.

Micah wanted to measure himself against the life-size penguins also (since that's what big brothers did). He is about the same height as a chin-strap penguin.

One week was about elephants, so we made these ears and trunks. The boys really liked these! We also watched some great footage on Planet Earth of elephants. Yay for Planet Earth!

The boys put on the pilgrim hats (thanks Grandmother!) and we made a feather headdress for Daddy so he could pretend he was Squanto. They had a fun time acting out the story of the pilgrims.

This picture is not actually school related, but I included it so you could see Micah's cheese face. He's totally into getting his picture made these days. So cute. I'm hoping to post a cuteness update soon!
