I told the girls of the rations my dad brought back when in his army days (my dad was a full-time military man in Singapore). We made some WWII ration recipes. Mashed potato soup, weiner casserole, condensed milk raisin cake. The little one learnt about H-Horse and E-Elephant Gerald is our mascot this week, of course! CHINESE NEW YEAR We celebrated Chinese New Year this year. And we made some STEM toys for Baby Sis' science, but also just for fun.

 The weeks went by in such a blur, as it always happened with the last weeks. The younger girls finished up the early 19th Century American History and did their lapbooks from Homeschool in the Woods .  Also, they finished their state study up to California (1850) and president study up to Zachary Tyler. Next year we will continue with the rest. Big Sis 9th Grade Big Sis also finished her World Geog, Chemistry, Foreign Language, and Geometry. She did a spectacular job!!
