When learning about the planet Venus, we did 2 fun activities! First: VOLCANOES! In addition to these awesome volcanoes, we did a little bit of Venus art with oil pastels! The kids drew circles with a white pastel, then used their fingers to smudge the circle a bit. Each child chose what color they wanted their planet to be. They colored most of the circle in except for the lower right side - we explained to them about shadows and how we can create those with our ... Read More about Astronomy – Chapter 4: Venus!

I have used notebooks, prayer journals, lists, etc. And, I don't think it's bad, honestly, to change up your "aide" or method every once in awhile, it keeps things fresh.
