Last of the Continents

Matthew studied South America. He started getting story of choice for homework each week instead of the easy mundane spelling that he had been doing. I think you call it busy work. So we have been combining Afterschooling with his homework and it has been very successful. He wrote a story about his trip to South America and included, foods he enjoyed, politics he learned about and the animals he encountered. He has an amazing way with words and the story was very entertaining.

South America

Wow do they ever use a lot of fattening ingredients. Matthew found a recipe that we like to call "churros on steroids". Oh yummy, yummy, yum!



Always a grand finale!

Now we are going to begin a fun Cookies unit study that I found here: home school helper. A great way to bring in the Christmas Season.
