Do You Have to Do A Notebook?
| It seems everyone and every resource suggests putting together a tidy science notebook when you are studying. Make illustrations, color photocopies, write paragraphs, glue/paste diagrams together, perhaps do some haiku on a caterpillar. This all sounds so great and I can absolutely see how being able to look back on a photograph of our cell diagram would have much meaning and be a wonderful record. But, it's just enough for me that we're doing anything at all extra with science, beyond CC that is. We read and occassionally do a project to bring a point home. So far we've done 3 enrichment activities with science, though we've read many more days than that. I'd love a notebook, but honestly, I can't see how I'd pull that together along with everything else we're doing. My bottom line goal is to instill a biblical worldview in my children, and that happens by reading during school hours and talking, watching a good movie like Planet Earth at night and talking, discussing God's amazing plan with the details of Joseph's life and how that relates to them after we've read Victor Journey Through the Bible....I just don't know that I could balance a fabulous project this year. Baby steps...we're moving forward, so maybe next year I can do all we're doing plus have a visual record to flip through of what we've done. It would be nice. |

If you don't know who this is from, I will be SHOCKED! But not appalled.
Hint: See you Friday!
