May. 4, 2008 • Homeschool Hi-Lights

Posted in Home Education


Ellen from Fun Learning is hosting a meme called Homeschool Hi-Lights. To participate, write a post about a highlight from your past week of home learning, then go to Fun Learning's Homeschool Hi-Lights post for the week and add your post's permalink to Mr. Linky.

Everyone is still working hard on projects and display boards for our upcoming colonial times unit celebration.

Nathan has been wading through a huge stack of books about pirates and taking copious notes. He and Jordan are trying to make their own bow out of red oak. Jordan worked hard on a template for it.

planning the bow

Allyson is ready to mount all of her colonial living information on her display board already!

Kathryn finished her formal schoolwork really early on Friday. By 9:00 in the morning she was reading A Lion to Guard Us. She didn't get up from her chair until she had finished the entire book! I guess it was a good one. :-)

great book

Have a wonderful and adventuresome week of learning!

Sounds like a fun week! My ds has begun (finally) to "get into" reading. He will often read ahead of an assignment and finish a book sooner now. Don't you just love it? Have a blessed week. Julie http:funinthesunmom.blogspot.com

They both look like the are really loving their learning. It's so neat when they can't put a good book down.

You guys are really serious about this colonial project. Your daughter must love reading. My son does. He isn't satisfied just reading a book. He wants to read the whole series.
