Good morning to the rain. The record player was our only escape from the dreary weather outside of our window. And with props to Grandmother, again, Hans Christian Anderson, Fairy Tales were brought to life today on vinyl. Student and Toddler enjoyed The Steadfast Tin Soldier and The Ungly Duckling. Yes, Toddler asked for the soldier to be repeated, and confessed his love for the bayonet! Literary mornings bring out the best in everyone!
Student picked her connecting cursive words from the fairy tales we listened to:
fire
heart
doll
jewel
melt
gun
I love seeing how her brain thinks through it all. And her explanations, too. She is a critical thinker and I thank God for her work. She encourages me.
Just outside of the camera view, swings our homeschool mascot...sleeping to the
ticking and banging of rhythm sticks! Good ol' newborn-ness!
Exodus chapters continue in History studies. We had a massive review of phonics including our flashcards from Mrs. Tonya (thanks). And so we leave our homeschool day with Math seatwork and Sweden facts from Student:
Princess Cake looked yummy! The sausage and blueberry soup looked like not my favorite. I will try the cake if they have it at the festival this weekend! Maybe we can make it!
Maximum size to wet the taste buds!
These are some Swedish foods I learned of.
