This is Riley's history notebook. I got this notebook, to go with history, with her in mind and she loves it and even adds her own content to it. It was fun to see her dive deep into the ancient Egypt information. August has one also but he isn't as into it so I am not having him do as much so it doesn't take away from him wanting to learn history.
Sometimes math is just easier in a quiet room in a comfy bed.
Practicing phonics together and using the I pad to make the words and discuss where you split the syllables.
Riley's Super secret notebook. It was an optional add on to go with Language arts. She doesn't work on it every week but I think she enjoys the creativity and new ideas. She especially loves it when we take on a project together.
Tasty Geography. I have taken pictures of some of the meals.

| Shepherds Pie: Ireland |

| Beef Pie and colcannon potatoes: Ireland |
 |
| Cheesy Spaetzle: Germany( we originally did it with a mushroom sauce and had to try again with cheese!) |
 |
| Spanish chicken and rice: Spain |
We also had a tapas night! I loved the manchengo stuffed bacon wrapped dates!
We also had a chorizo and white been salad that I would eat again.
Nature Drawing in the park
We went to Moore park to play on the playground, check out the pond and walk through their prairie and wooded area. I love it because it is so close but offers a lot of diversity. I had the sketch books in the bag and a hawk sitting very close on the roof above a picnic table made for the perfect chance to use them!
