Bugs!

We started our BUG unit study today.  Kids enjoy bugs...we sure do have enough of them here in the country, lol!  Also checked in on how their plants were doing!  Much to their surprise, the nice weather over the weekend helped a lot!


Great fact book for the kids. We talked today about Fact Vs. Opinion.


Did you know that it has to have 6 legs to be considered an insect? Yuppers...


Started our Monthly May Calendar too.



You know I love me some Scholastic!



Molly's Dragonfly picture....she colors great for a 4 yr old!



Kids excited how great their plants are doing!



This week is BUSY BUSY BUSY....with our camping trip scheduled on Friday for Mother's Day weekend. Sammies 2nd Night Owl Birthday party on Thursday...Ballet class....T-Ball...packing...shopping etc..

What a fantastic bug unit! it is obvious the time and care that you put into this. I am also a homeschooling Mommy - right now only one of mine is old enough for school - she is finishing up kindergarten. I love "meeting" like-minded mommies!
Blessings on your day!

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
