Musings from the Mahan School for Little Women

And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free. And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.~Lee Greenwood

Weeks 7, 8 & 9 of TOG

Posted in Tapestry of Grace

Well, I figured since we are getting ready to start Unit 2 of TOG that I had better post about the last part of Unit 1. The last 3 weeks took us back to the Israelites wandering in the desert. We learned about the different feasts that the Lord set up for them to follow such as Shabbat, Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur & Passover.

We also learned about the Tabernacle. Below are pictures of the finished product. This was actually a second attempt as the first did not have much effort put into it. We had a talk about putting effort into our work and I helped them find a little more information to get their creative juices flowing. It seems to have worked.

Next week, we begin a quick journey around the world to visit other ancient civilizations.

I love the tabernacle. I'm a visual learner and that would have solidified it for me as a child!

You kindly offered to send me the email of another homescool family on Whidbey Island. That would be so wonderful! I would appreciate it very much. My email is heinlfamily@msn.com.

Did you move to Flordia from Washington? I love it here, but oddly enough....(this is a small world....) my husband has a chance of being transferred to Florida, Hawaii or various places in Oregon.

Homeschooling is a terrific way to stay inact as a family!

Thanks for visiting my blog, I'll be looking forward to your upcoming project! What fun.
