Today we started our unit on frogs! There are sooooooo many wonderful books on frogs. Fun fiction stories, science books about the life cycle, and fun books with pictures of different frogs. Here is a look at the table the girls saw this morning. And here are the girls working on this big frog floor puzzle. I found this brand new at a used curriculum shop for a few dollars! I hope you all have a happy Labor Day, and a great week as well! ... Read More about Starting our FROGGY week
A Day in the Mountains

Another wildflower walk
Since it has been raining all week this is the first opportunity we’ve had to be outside at all! So, we went on a nature walk! We found lots of pretty wildflowers, but also found a few other things too! I have tried to look for the names of these wildflowers to identify them, but it is still hard for me to always tell what it is! So, if you see one that isn’t labeled correctly OR you see one with no name at all and you know what they are, please fill me in! UPDATE: thank you to my new friend, ...
