Onions

I was cutting onions and my eyes were watering and stinging. The kids had this brilliant idea. They went and got the goggles from the play workshop. And it actually worked! :)

Scones and Tea

We were studying the United Kingdom this week. It was so fun to make scones and tea. They were part of the "high tea" that we had.













Definitely a high time!

The end of canning 2011

Hour and hours and hours and more hours of Fall work. Hours and hours and hours and more hours of Winter enjoyment!

M&M Science and Math

This was a fun class! I think everyone involved would agree! :) It's amazing how much you can learn with candy.

We hypothesized what we would find inside and how they might be different:size, color, shape, etc. (they had never opened bags like these before!)


Patterns




Sorting


Multiplication


Colors


Which group has 1? Which group has 2?


Taste testing. I bet the students would say this was there favorite part!


What will happen when the same kind and color of M&M is in warm water vs. cold water?? And we found out that the M's come off the candy and float!

Mother/Daughter Retreat

What a fun time it was when Chaeli and I got away for the weekend together. We played and prayed and talked... It was a good time!

Science

We are so blessed to be able to participate in many of the activities that our local church school does. One such event was a science fair. What fun and what learning...all wrapped up in one!! Here are a few high lights.

Traditional Korean Noodles
