It’s Winter Tree week! This morning Elliot and I read Winter Trees by Carole Gerber and he whizzed through a few seasonal themed worksheets and a fun sticker shape activity. Then we created a snow tree with twigs and a glue/shaving cream mix (@magichomeschoolbus). So cute! Trees are awesome and we are always excited to learn more about them.

This morning for our nature study we read Moon by Steve Tomecek and completed a mosaic project of the phases of the moon with a reference guide from @brighterdaypress. I used thick cardstock and dried beans and plan on keeping them for future lessons. Elliot also did a few worksheets to practice writing and counting. The moon is simply amazing and we love learning about it.

This afternoon we spent some time outside and then learned a little more about the moon. After reading Moon by Brittany Teckentrup, Elliot completed some themed worksheets, colored a MOON letter sheet and drew a moon in our nature journal. We also read more into how the moon was formed in The Kids Book of the Night Sky by Anne Love & Jane Drake. Such a cool book!
