Back in time

So in science this week. .technically last week, we were learning and studying creation, evolution, dinosaurs. We were learning the difference between the beliefs and did dinosaurs really live.  Answer: yes they did.  Our belief: historical biblical account

Anyway across the river at the planetarium they had the dinosaur in motion exhibit, so I thought it fun to do that for a field trip! Everything was made fromdissent routes of metals and pullies and levers to make them move, some used old Playstation handheld to do it which was very cool! In all it was fun to see where a majority of dinos were located. I really hope Walking With The Dinosaurs comes back to town cause I think the kiddos would love it!
Happy schooling!

4 th grade & toddler days

So. ..it is officially 2015-2016 school year. Hmmmm where had this time gone? Our son is 10 and the once infant is now turning toddler in 4 months! Craziness! I am learning a lot about myself more than anything, like. ..I realize that now seeing an end time to finish school I am much more laid back. Seriously! We do school ALL day long, however we do have long breaks throughout. So far John hasn't complained so I think this is good.
I also have joined a Co op this year in the hope I cam connect with other moms for that support. I will be watching the little kids which will be nice for baby V to have that interaction, AND of course John gets a some time with other kids learning the same subjects he is!
The one photo is at the Caterpillar museum and that is my Littles in front of a mine truck tire. The other photo was our project this week of learning the world cake, focusing on continents and oceans! Mmmmmm love the edible stuff. .lol
Happy schooling!
