Family Friday

A certain cousin to visit! Yippee!
As big kids like 5th graders, only get so many days off,
why not celebrate at the Homeschool?



What else are Fridays for? Well, field trips, for one. But as life is learning, and stops NOT on the fifth day of week most schools do, we carried over to Saturday to acommidate Principal's schedule and have him along for the fun!

Gramma S2 just loves and adores the Canadian children's book author, Robert Munsch! (Last year we noted the way the kiddos SIT and listen to her read his books...) The nearby Metropolitan area had an interactive traveling show of his, so we JUST HAD TO schedule a field trip in place of class on our FIRST Friday of the year..it just turned into Saturday!



Student and S2 plugged their heads into the voice-changing machine!



Student triend her hand at a sculpture...and that girl IS always doing Art!



Warrior and Student walked through one of Munsch's books and discovered...



It was in another section of the vanue that Student eyes a false label...



Really?! How exactly could MOTHER NATURE design the honey bee? Hmmm...that's our Student! Separating truth from the world's lies!

And new to the Homeschool this year, is the Fishing Chart. Yes Student and Warrior fish with Principal, but THIS fishing is done indoors and guarantees a catch, if each day of that week earned a sticker for completion of work. All in the first week of Homeschool.
