Last Day of School

Monday, December 21st is our last day of school for Christmas break. We are planning a Christmas decorating party and 6th grade went into the store to shop for party goods all by herself! Let's just say... that girl likes her shopping!!

Saturday

6th grade and I are watching "Left Behind: The Movie" together as she has read the kids series and most of the adult series. She has been wanting to see it for a while and I have been holding off, but decided to watch with her today. I love how her mind works and her 11 year old interpretation of things.

Numbers Words

2nd grade continues to do very well in math and because we have not shared much of his work lately, we decided to show how well he is doing in writing and reading number words.

Library Day

We went to the library today and our wonderful librarian told us that is was Christmas story and craft day, but that no one had registered for the class. I guess it did not make it to the website. So we went in and she read 4 great stories: 2 about the gingerbread baby, 1 that told about the 12 days of Christmas and a neat little book called: "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas" By John Rox and Bruce Whatley. I had never heard that one before and I am sure that I enjoyed it more than the kids did!

The craft was a chance to make our own gingerbread man ornaments. They smelled delicious!

Fun fun!

After School Activities

Why is it that my homeschooled kids can't wait till the end of school time and then get up and go in the other room and play "school"?!?!?
