Learning Adventures At Home: January 2015
http://learningadventuresathome.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Learning Adventures At Home. Thursday, January 29, 2015. Brazos County Sheriff's Office. The trip to the Brazos County Sheriff's Office was definitely one of the most memorable field trips we have ever been part of. Andrew and Saara were both so proactive and wanted to see and experience everything they could. Both kids walked away excited about the job that the sheriff does, and Andrew even declared he wants to work there once he grows up. We will see. Trying on the handcuffs. In Sheriff Kirk's office.

Learning Adventures At Home. Friday, October 31, 2014. 14/15 Week 10 Day 3. After yesterday morning's trip to the corn farm and Andrew's last baseball game which ended very late, we were rather slow starting our school day. While we were going through our morning chores and breakfast, I put on an audiobook ("Mary Poppins"), and we listened until we were ready to begin. Labels: Arts And Crafts. Weeks and Days 14/15. Beside the main attraction, the corn maze, the farm offered many fun things. Among oth...

Learning Adventures At Home. Tuesday, April 28, 2015. 14/15 Week 32 Day 1. For Saara, and Andrew too, the today's highlight was watching a documentary about gladiators and the Colosseum in Rome. Saara donned her paper laurel wreath for the viewing, but then decided she did not like being an emperor after all, and took it off. Science. Saara dividing objects into opaque, translucent, and transparent. More objects to check. Andrew trying inertia on a raw egg. Weeks and Days 14/15. Sunday, April 26, 2015.

Learning Adventures At Home: June 2015
http://learningadventuresathome.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Learning Adventures At Home. Saturday, June 6, 2015. 14/15 Week 37 Days 3, 4, and 5. These last days have been bittersweet. There are many books that we started reading last September and finished up just now. Books about native Indians, poetry, science experiments, and Bible songs - all done now. Kind of sad. And yet we all are happy that one more school year is behind us. Then, truly, we can say that Saara's first and Andrew's third grade is in the past. Summer play. It is time to catch fireflies.
