So, like most things in my life right now, Pinterest.com has influenced my homeschooling methods. I have found SO many cool ideas for school on there, but was having a hard time knowing how I was ever going to implement them in my daily school time. So I decided to take my school calendar and with Pinterest on hand, I gave each week of our school a theme! This week was the first, LEGO week.
Monday we did LEGO math. Kellen added as seen in the photo, and I made Abbi subtract the dots on the Legos.
Tuesday, we did LEGO sentences. I put a bunch of random words on our big Legos and had the kids put them together to make sentences. (ALL these ideas were on Pinterest.com by the way, I do not come up with this stuff people)
Wednesday, we talked about how they are made from plastic. Thursday, we were doing good to just get our worksheets done, I think Legos were in the room when they did them. Today, Friday, we watched how Legos are made, found Denmark on the globe, because that is where their big factory is, and then we took a trip to the LEGO store at the mall. We bought nothing, because I am cheap, I mean frugal. I am frugal. I would deem LEGO week a success. Next weeks theme? Starbucks. I wish.
