Thursday Experiment

Beginning as each Thursday is arranged to, the Homeschool left campus and ventured to the local library.



What a joy to Teacher, as she remembers the transition in Student, and enters into the transition with Warrior, to be a witness to their noticing letters and numbers in the world. To have a hunger to gain more knowledge and display that which they have learned. It's the little, subtle changes that God has gifted Teacher to be a part of in the daily happenings of the Homeschool.

Inside playing,



checking out books



and being encouraged by the librarian's homeschool experiences growing up. God's encouragement is all around, and sometimes in unexpected places! What a respect the Homeschool has for those that came before us and established this nontraditional-learning palette.

National Courtesy Month, gives the Homeschool many more opportunities to give God the glory in serving others. And with that, the Homeschool took a trip to a local animal hospital and took along pal, Haley, to fill out an application. Teacher assisted in the ritual fill-in-the-blanks while Student learned about cats!



Home again, home again, jiggity jig. The Homeschool continued in Genesis. Warrior completed his seatwork and then some...because he thought the garden of Eden needed a rocket...



And Student chimed right in on the upcoming Good Neighbor Day, with a card for our neighbor who was recently in the newspaper for her Art exhibit at a local College.



Also in the quiet of Warrior's nap, Student practiced her cuttin skills with such concentration. Frozen, quartered strawberries for some healthy and tasty Math!




Outdoors for a water ballon experiment, Student and Warrior BOTH underestimated the 36 seconds it took to EXPLODE! Mascot just enjoyed the show!



Ending with some wagoning, biking, reading and devotions for all, the Homeschool looks forward to celebrating Grandparents Day early tomorrow!
