Here are just some pictures to help me keep track of some of Jaylyn’s school projects the last few months.
We had fun with the solar system. Jaylyn really gets into science!
We used felt to make some “close-to-scale” planets to practice order of planets.

More creating
Leighton joined in too
Jaylyn’s cross
Leighton’s creation of “something”
Adley’s “Luther Rose”
Jaylyn’s “Luther Rose”
The pictures and colors represent different things:
-
Black cross—Jesus died for our sins on the cross
-
Red heart—We have new hearts and desires by faith
-
White rose—We have peace with God
-
Blue Sky—We have new life that begins now
-
Gold Ring—We have eternal life in heaven.

We read “The Sneetches” The tunnel become the “star-on” and “star-off” machine. Adley and Leighton helped act out the story while I read. See their stars. :-)

Shaking up some home made butter
It is ready!
Now we know :-)
She pretty much used most of the jar over time. She made a lot of cinnamon toast and grilled cheese with that butter.
Learning to knit!
Playing outside while learning about mountains leads to drawing and labeling parts of a mountain with sidewalk chalk. :-)
