Art Galore

Waking an hour before her usual eye-opening time,
Student tromped downstairs to begin her sewing project today!
What better motivation than the anticipation of viewing color
and design atop fabric in the morning sunshine?

Ironing, cutting, sewing, and stringing bells... these door hangers crafted with gratitude for gifting to her Sunday school and Violin instructors.

Spurring the mind of a young believer, the court house lawn display of a manger scene, which Student spotted on our light tour last night, prompted her to write a letter to our city! So, for Language, Student wrote and mailed:
"Dear City,
What you did what rite.
Thank you!
I see youer manger.
Sincerely,
First Grade Student"

Toddler, on the other hand, wasn't standing still for anything.
He was plotting spoon wars. Taking turns with each silver metal weapon attacking the other and then transforming them into musical instruments.
And talking to Student about her project...
" Let me hold it or I'll broke it!" he said in his manliest voice.
Principal was on discipline duty for that one!

Continuing with counting by 25s, Student mixed and matched coin piles to count totals. Principal has really been a help in Math as she thinks much like him.

Journal is substituting for the sketchbook
that is bursting at the seams with completed artwork.

History was the nighttime story tonight, as Teacher was working away from the Homeschool and Principal was in charge of finishing the lesson. God is good to bring helpmate.
