Homeschool

As the weather slowly turned cool, ushering in fall, our next Five in a Row adventure seemed an obvious one: How to Make an Apple Pie and see the World. Growing up, I have some wonderful memories of my parents taking us each fall to the apple orchards to pick bushel after bushel of apples. They were the best apples I have ever tasted. Right off the tree, they were cold, crisp and delicious. Unfortunately, we don’t have the opportunity to pick bushels of apples in apple orchards, but we can bake an apple pie! How to Make and Apple Pie With the assistance of...

We’ve been reading the book, How to Make an Apple Pie and see the World as part of our homeschool curriculum. Of course, learning about apples was a logical part of this study, but when I told Clark and Luci that we were going to learn about, their response was: “What?! We already KNOW about apples!” Well, surprise, surprise, they still had lots to learn! One of Luci’s favorite projects during our apple unit study was a little puzzle that I made for her. Luci loves puzzles, so if there’s ever an opportunity to do a puzzle, she’s fully engaged. From the time she...

Here’s a super simple craft for your young ones.  It’s a great way to help learn the Letter A, as well as the differences between a capital or lower case Letter A.  It’s a little labor-intensive with the scissors, but very doable.  We have been reading the book, How to Bake an Apple Pie and See the World, and this little craft made for an enjoyable afternoon together.  Or actually it took a couple of afternoons, because it’s no easy to cut out all those apples! We found these cute apples to cut out at Confessions of a Homeschooler.  They just happened to be...

After taking some time off from Five in a Row, we are back, studying The Glorious Flight by Alice and Martin Provensen.  I chose this book because Clark has been asking some very specific questions recently about airplanes and how they fly.  So I thought this would provide a great opportunity to take him in the direction of his interest. The Glorious Flight tells the story about Louis Bleriot who, with great persistence and passion, built a flying machine to become one of the first to fly across a large body of water, the English Channel. Social Studies  We began our study of The Glorious Flight by talking about human...

This was our first experience with a “Homeschool Day” field trip to the Fort Worth Zoo, and I just have to say WOW!  Homeschoolers show up!  I have been to the Fort Worth Zoo several times, but I have never seen it so incredibly busy!  Way to go, Homeschoolers! The timing couldn’t have been more perfect because next week is Luci’s birthday and she has been asking to go to the zoo for her birthday.  So, when I saw the Fort Worth Zoo was having a Homeschool Day with a nice little discount, we decided to go this week!  Neither Clark...
