From Family Unity to Grammar

One of the things I love must about homeschooling is the lessons that pop up out of nowhere.  I did not set out my day to teach the children to ryhme.  It was errand day and I had no lessons in mind. 

 

Upon arriving to the store the kids sat in the back and jabbered back in forth while I fiddled with my makeup.  When I was satisified that I was as presentable as I was going to be I said, "Who's ready to go inside?"

 

I smiled when I heard "Me!"  in stereo. 

 

Then to my dismay I heard, "Just me!"

 

I said, "Oh, no!  WE are all going in.  We do everything as a family.  I don't want to hear you trying to leave each other out."

 

They nodded understanding.

 

I said, "So, who is ready to go inside?"

 

Again I smiled.  However instead of hearing "Me!"  I heard "We!" is stereo.

 

While unbuckling them and getting everyone out of the car Abigail said, "Me sounds like we." 

 

I agreed and told her that they ryhmed with each other.  All day while running errands we rhymed.  It was so great!

Don't you just love how the best learning happens when we have nothing planned? What a fun day! Rhyming is a favorite activity for car rides with us!
