The girls and I went to the library today. Had to clear up fines..ugh...pick up holds..yeah...and browse. :)
While I was there I remembered that we're doing one state a week We're just doing a brief overview. Something to expose the children to all the states. While we're doing the states I'm using each state's tree, flower, & bird to science with Matthew.
This first week we're doing Virginia - where we live! So I picked up a few Virginia books, a couple on Geoge Washington, a bird book, a tree book, and just some other fun things to read.
I needed 160 more tab dividers for our notebooks. I checked Amazon - $.08 for a pack of 5!!! Wow!!! Flat fee shipping of $5.95. There are some great deals to be found online. Those came yesterday so tonight I'm going to finish getting the notebooks ready for Tuesday. Monday I'll do the first week's assignments (pulling from my lesson plans that are already in Homeschool Tracker - kudos to HST!!!) and make sure I really do have everything I need.
Chalk! I need chalk. :) |
