Sunny Colorado

While having my morning cup 'o coffee thought I'd catch up on some writing.

Home/UnSchooling has been going really well! Dispite the crazy travel schedule A has been accomplishing quite a bit of "school". haha
That sounds so funny to me. Anyway, as for 3rd grade, we've been reviewing grammar, parts of speech like irregular verbs and past and present. Also reviewing more math facts before jumping into multiplication tables.

I bought 2 great books at a thrift store in CA. A ChildCraft book and also 1001 Q & A's World of Knowledge. A loves them. So whenever he starts to get a little stir-crazy, he just gets his new books and starts reading. The other day as we were driving through AZ and NM we went through a big storm with lots of lightning. A wanted to know how lightning happens, so he looked it up in his book!

Today, we're going to a Ghost Town in Old Colorado City. We're going to pan for gold!!!! Should be fun. UPDATE: It was so fun!!!! We struck GOLD!!! Found 4 little pieces. Could have stayed there all day. I think this is a really great activity for someone with OCD!!! haha
