CJ and EE are holding a glass soda bottle with a yeast mixture in it. The gases from the yeast mixture inflated the balloon. They LOVED this experiment!
When we learned about some of the pioneers of America, we studied how they made everything they ate- even butter. We made some to try ourselves. It was DELICIOUS!
CJ made this paper indian canoe. He even decorated it with his own indian drawings.
BA made a canoe too. They were quite proud of this project.
This is BA's first attempt at kneading the dough to make homemade bread. It doubled as a history and science project- history with learning how people used to make their bread and science concerning yeast and how it's gases make things rise.
CJ having a great time kneading :)
BA and CJ...proud homemade bread bakers!
While studying the letter 'A' we made homemade applesauce. It was quite the hit!
We made a model of the solar system. It is now hanging in the boy's bedroom!
Outside school is the best! Here we are on the back porch. Pretty cool 'T,' right?!
Braden is finishing up some seat work in US history. They love learning outside! If only the weather would stay just right for it.
Our dear friend Ms. Phyllis showed the kindergarteners how to make a homemade apple pie when we were studying the letter 'A.'
I hope you have enjoyed seeing some of our favorite moments from school. Being able to do school at home is such a joy to me. It isn't always easy, and sometimes isn't always picture worthy, but it's a blessing to my heart to have my babies with me everyday. Teaching them has taught me one big lesson...every day I realize how much I don't know. I'm learning right along beside them. Perhaps that is what makes it so fun!

I love all the things you do with them during the school day....I sure could have tasted some of that bread right out of the oven with some good 'ol butter yum yum...and that apple pie I know was good....
