The books we read. We enjoyed the Berenstain Bears one and Danny and the Dinosaur most. We did the D-Dinosaur unit over Thanksgiving, so it took a long time as we took a break for that. As I said in the plan. What I was surprised about was how much my faith grew just by reading the article by Ken Ham. Here are what we did: *Dino-rama using the dinos from download -a-dinosaur *dino drawings (I was very surprised by Ian who did a really good job!) *dino play-doh. AHHH...he's not that good in this one. =) *Made a story of "Ian and the Dinosaur" (from Danny and the Dinosaur) I thought he did a great job on this! (a Charlotte Mason-y kind of thing I think) *made dinosaur book (I didn't put this in the plan but I like it very much! In fact I like the graphics by Kizclub a lot! Clean and nice) *match dinosaurs from here *made a dino craft from "D" I surprised the kids by making the dinosaur lunch (using Tyson's Nuggets). and in turn my boy surprised me by ...

Some extra things I thought interesting to share. 1. Extra books We found these Little House on the Prairie books that we like in the library! They are a nice find. 2.One morning I had to put the youngest baby down for nap. So I asked the brother and the sister to do the morning board on their own since they have been doing it for a while already. They were drawing and playing then. It was a real surprise to hear the brother say (after some minutes that I was in) "Come, Colleen, let's do school" and they did up the morning board all by themselves! so proud of them. (besides the mistake of "4+1" they did a great job!) 3.Our dear boy turned 5 today. It was soooo wonderful to have him in our lives and he is the pride and joy of his parents! 4. So a review on this " Pretend and Play Snack Shop " toy we bought him. It is WONDERFUL!!! You really get to learn A LOT of things!! (and our boy REALLY likes to open a "shop") Math, social skills...
