Well, maybe. School this week was ok. We are still not back on the MFW wagon, but we will be soon! I know some families who are done or nearly done with school until fall! I can't even imagine!
This week, we mostly did math and language with a little science and art thrown in. I puchased these really neat geography games, so that's how we've been studying geography! I saw them at our homeschool convention and regretted buying them until I found a store on ebay where I got them for a lower price. =) They are called "10 Days in... Africa, Asia, Europe, and the USA" and are so much fun to play. I wish they had one for Central & South America. Maybe they will some day.
We've also been playing blokus, which Emily and I both love. It's all about strategy. And we've enjoyed playing marcala as well, learning more about the African culture while playing it.
All things considered, I guess we did ok this week. We'll be in Florida soaking up the rays next week for a much needed vacation! Now that's something to look forward to!
It's a pleasure to see how others school their children. (You can get ideas that way) :) Have a wonderful vacation!! Blessings! ~Amy
ReplyDeleteHave a great vacation! I love finding little "treasures" that go right along the curriculum we are using. I feel like God really leads me to some cool "extras" once in awhile. We will be following you to Florida in a week and a half :)
ReplyDeleteThose are very cool looking games!! I wish I had them before this year began. Have a fun vacation!!
ReplyDeleteEmily, I hope your trip to Florida is a bit more pleasant than mine.
ReplyDeleteJen, these games are a lot of fun and something I recommend, even after Exploring Countries & Cultures!
