In our house history is one of our all time favorite things to learn about! I was thrilled when given the chance to review yet another product from Home School In The Woods. We were given a digital download of Project Passport World History Studies The Renaissance & Reformation.
Home School In The Woods is one of the best companies I have ever seen for hands-on history projects. They carry many products including time lines and figures, sets of maps, activity packs and many more. I have personally been using these products since my oldest was in middle school and she is now twenty one. It is a company I go back to again and again!
This week the kiddos worked on their projects for Homeschool In The Woods Renaissance and Reformation Project Passport! Review for that in a future post! My kids love this time period and making projects so it was a fun week! Skyler is making Shakespeare's Globe Theater and Fox made a chessboard.
Skyler also made some "fairy crystal jewelry"! Sadly my camera did not cooperate and the picture is a bit fuzzy.
We had a fun day at the Santa Fe Teaching Zoo College! I think Skyler has found her college! Today was Zoo Keeper Day so there were quite a few people there to talk to, ask questions and teach us stuff! I love these kind of field trips! We even got Rhyli out of her lazy mood and she came along!
This week was a fun week. Skyler painted. Fox was being boring and didn't do anything cool other than read, math and watch documentaries. I guess those things can be cool just not really worth countless pictures, ya know! Sky had fun painting and I had fun watching. She can use that paint brush better than I can use markers! I even had to do a little video.
She did well after a few tries on mixing the colors to get them just the shades she wanted.
Another busy week! Skyler is still learning about herbs and fairies and having fun while she is at it! I love her little creative self!
No one in my house is exactly "gifted" in math! My oldest son who also happens to have autism (high functioning) is most likely the one who struggles the most sadly. Many of traditional math is babyish to him or too much like school so when I was given the chance to review Math Refresher for Adults by Math Essentials I figured maybe this would be a big help for him! He says he is too old for school so having the words for adults on it made a big difference.
Skyler is having fun finally getting to read her Herb Fairy books! It is nice having her home all day and not at camp.
