The Home School Co-op continues to be a huge success! It's probably one of the highlights of the week!
In science, the kids made butterfly feeders. They put sugar water in a sponge in the center of the flower (made of foamies) and the butterflies feed from the "fake flower." They are studying insects right now, with a focus on butterflies. We live near the state of Michoacán where every year over 100 million monarch butterflies migrate to this area.

In our study of the dust bowl, we used the book Out of the Dust by Karen Hesse. Here Le'Ann's students are during a "jigsaw" activity where they rotate around the classroom (or house in our case) and list events that relate to each theme found in the book. It's a great way to summarize the book by themes!
Another fun activity with insects. The students made insects out of clay after studying the parts of the insects' bodies.
