Ds finished a school project this morning!!!  We have been working through the Evan-Moor titled Literature Pockets: Nursery Rhymes since last spring.  We usually try to do one on Friday.  I'm trying to make Friday more of a "project" type of day.  (I'm envisioning Friday to be Science Experiment day, sometime down the road.) 

Ds has really enjoyed this book and I'm planning to move on to the Folk and Fairy Tales title next.  The projects have been simple and have really helped to give him practice with his scissor skills.  I've also been able to do some of the easier projects with dd so she doesn't feel left out when the scissors, crayons, and gluesticks are out.  I just do most of the cutting for her while ds is working on his project. 

We look forward to using more of the "pockets" titles in the future too!
