More School
|
We have been having such a good time with our schooling. Vanessa and I have gotten into Lap booking. Vanessa's first lap book was about the country of Hungary. We learned so many interesting facts. Then we took some of what we learned and put it into a neat little package called a lap book. For those of you who are not familiar with lap books, let me educate you... A lap book (when I refer to it) is a file folder (in this case manila, but after visiting an office supply store, hopefully some other color) that has been refolded and a bunch of mini-books put inside. Each mini-book has an interesting fact, or many facts. Lap books are hard to explain, and a picture is worth a thousand words, so here you go. Closed...  Open...  The proud artist with the flag which is glued on the back...  Another activity that we did was make Hungarian Goulash. It was quite delicious. Unfortunately, Vanessa and Vallerie did not agree with me. They took only one bite. Vanessa did most of the work for this dish. Cutting onions...  Posing for a picture...  We cooked it in the crock pot, which took hours and hours. So what is a body to do while we wait? I know! Let's play school! "I'll be the teacher"  "Read this word Vallerie"  "OK, here is your homework Vallerie." What a fun day! Blessings, Abby |
