Days #19 Autumn Harvest




Yesterday we talked about J, the letter of the week. The theme was joy. Neither London nor Mason were there due to illness. We had observers so I wasn't able to take as many pictures and we had some drama that took over both yesterday and today...

We discussed wheat and how it is part of harvest time. We also talked about what we can do with wheat. The children liked it when I crushed wheat with a rock to show them how easily flour can be made.

Proper nutrition was also part of the lesson. I played some cute music about eating right. The kids enjoyed dancing to it.

After the observer left, I think most of us were feeling claustrophobic with it being such a gorgeous day outside. We decided to read our last book under the tree behind the house.
