January Homeschool




We got ukuleles for Christmas from Grandma Marcia and Grandpa Jim.  They kids have been really excited to start learning the chords and have already learned several!  This is going to be fun!


After being away with Nolan in the hospital, Livi was missing me, so we went on a lunch date together to Casa Mexicana.  I always love opportunities to spend some one on one time with our kids.  They are such amazing humans.


Nolan got this awesome Lego, Fawkes, from Grandma as a get well present.  He was so proud to finish it and it turned out so  cool!



When Nolan got his drain removed, we kept some of the fluid to make a slide and we looked at it under the microscope.  


Our Quill focus this month is Poetry.  Livi chose this super cool poem combo to illustrate in a poster.






Our book for this month was, "The One and Only Bob."  It is the story about how a little former stray bands together with his friends to save the animals from a humane society.  Our Dart program suggested we make some blankets for the animals at our local shelter, so we made 34 fleece tie blankets over the month of January.  The moms did most of the cutting, and the kids did most of the tying.  







We read a book called, "Fold Me a Poem" and tired our hand at some different origami designs.


 We gave the kids a budget of $60 and the wish list for the Humane Society.  They worked together to spend their money wisely, to get some supplies to donate along with our blankets.
