Thursday, February 13, 2014. Presidents' day reading list. Since noah is on a US presidents kick, and we've been reading lots of president-related books around here, i thought i'd share a few of our favorites in time for presidents' day. We love all the books by ingri and edgar parin d'aulaire. They are a really talented duo! Another great one, and one of noah's all-time favorites, is what presidents are made of. By hanoch piven. noah absolutely loves the clever illustrations in this one! Subscribe to: P...

Thursday, June 06, 2013. Woodworking With Mr. Bandstra". He painted all the panels with chalkboard paint and made all the frame pieces for each slate ahead of time. The kids then painted wood glue into the grooves in the frame pieces, and then fitted all their pieces together like a puzzle, and then hammered them together with a mallet. They loved it! This display was in the hallway for a while after Creative Arts Week. I love the creative use of wood shavings! Links to this post. Wednesday, June 05, 2013.

Monday, November 18, 2013. Leafy letterboxing in the arboretum. Another leafy walk a few weeks ago. christian came too, and the boys had lots of fun trying to catch leaves that the wind blew down. it's hard! Isla collected many, many leaves and sticks. and then had a hard time walking with her voluminous loot. but she refused to leave any behind. finally she realized she could pack some items into her backpack, which she did. she even broke some of her sticks in half so they would fit!
