The kids had their Unit 3 Celebration last Thursday evening for our homeschool co-op. After several weeks studying Ancient Greece, we're moving on to Rome now. They displayed all the crafts they had made for the past 8 or 9 weeks. They also chose one and told about it in front of the other kids and all the parents. (think...Sunday School room at church with 40 or so sets of eyes looking at you) Hannah was first and didn't know what to say or do. (She now knows that Mommy is a smart mommy when she says, "Hannah, let's practice before you are in front of people". She did have to learn it the hard way though.) All the others learned from her and did a great job. Brock said it just like we had practiced (notice the word PRACTICED) and didn't have a nervous breakdown doing it.
We also sampled Greek dishes that everyone brought. We made Cheese Triangles as our contribution. More on that at a later post...
The twins displayed their Bible Storybooks they have been making this year. We are not moving as quickly through the pages of history in the pre-school class so we've just finished learning about David and Goliath.
Everyone moved down the hall to our church's Children's Theatre for the oldest group of kids to perform a Greek play. They did an outstanding job and it was a real learning experience for the younger ones. It took me back to 8th grade English with Miss Redding...
Socially speaking it was an evening of coordinating outfits with friends for Hannah. Such fun memories!
We were back home a little after 9pm and all crawled in bed with visions of airplanes dancing in our heads...Grammy was coming the next day!
