Columbus Day

We are playing "catch up" this week because of our field trip to the zoo last Tuesday!  While I love the fact that homeschooling has allowed us some flexibility for side trips and all the things that life throws at us, in the end, I prefer sticking to a schedule.  I'm still learning how to let go of the little things and to focus on the fact that learning takes place everyday regardless if we actually use books or not!

Speaking of books....here are a few we will be reading today in honor of Columbus Day:

A Book About Christopher Columbus by Ruth Belou Gross

In 1492 by Jean Marzollo

Where Do You Think You're Going Christopher Columbus by Jean Fritz



Nathan will have a writing assignment about Christopher Columbus and the girls will get to draw!

What are your plans for this holiday?
