Jan. 30, 2009 - this, that, and the other...
It's been almost a month since my last entry so this will be a catching up on what we've
been up to post.
We finished up our 12 Days of Christmas lapbook. I'm so glad we got it done before the 12th day! (but
it was close).
I won't bore you with all 12 days....but all the kids worked on this lapbook together and
it turned out nice.
The weather here has been .....great! ( sorry all you folks covered in ice and snow!)
We had some almost 80 degree days a while back and enjoyed the local park. (counts
as p.e.!)
We also used our zoo passes and had a field trip.
The pandas were moving....(they mostly sleep)...
The bears were swimming.....
And the Koala's were.....doing what they always do. Youngest Dd so wanted to see
them and was bummed they didn't DO anything....but she got to see this one too!
We are half way through Tapestry of Grace year 4. We studied WWI and made a lapbook to
recount what we learned.
The big kids haven't really wanted to do alot of writing in the lapbooks, but do enjoy the
art side of it so I've been typing up the info and they glue it in. We use them as review of what
we've studied.
We did a one day lapbook on Veterans' Day too. I usually plan ahead but this time just printed this one
off that day and the little ones and I did it.
I also dvr'd the inauguration and as we watched (fast forwarding the boring stuff) and put together a
lap and note pack I got free from Curr-click that day.
It was neat to lap/note book about the part of the inauguration and then watch that part on tv.
So...if you've lasted all the way down to the bottom of this entry you're either
related to us  or love lapbooking.
I'll close with how my youngest girl "dressed" and got ready for school the
other day.
Blessings!!!

Your visit to the pandas at the zoo reminds me of our visit to the zoo to see the pandas when my oldest was a toddler. A stuffed panda, "Pandy", she received when a baby, has always been a favorite of hers.
