PUMPKINS/FALL THEME

     
   This was the week Caleb was born. We did this as a theme instead of a letter theme or our Bible Curr. b/c it was such a hectic time. He is now 2 months old and I am just now putting this blog together. Jordyn LOVES doing seasonal themes, I'm guessing b/c it is something different than the usual 'school.' We focused on PUMPKINS first, then LEAVES, APPLES, and SCARECROWS. I wish I had more pictures of all the fun things we did. We sang fall songs, collected fall items outside, read the cutest scarecrow book,"The Little Scrarecrow Boy." I am excited to begin our NATIVITY theme starting Dec. 1st and lasting all month. After that we will do a winter theme in Jan.
   How much fun it was here are a few of our moments.

Homeschool Weeks 9 and 10

After editing the pictures for weeks 9 and 10, I am excited to blog about these weeks. If you are looking at the blog on an apple device ( IPHONE or IPAD) try to view it on a windows PC. The reason being, the videos I post, for some odd reason, do not show up on these devices. The videos at the end of this blog are worth watching.
