the rainbow fish

After almost a month of not doing school, our mini summer break, we are back in the saddle again. This week we are doing an ocean theme! I have picked a few books about ocean animals and activities to go along with each book. Today, we read The Rainbow Fish. I love this book and it was fun doing the activities to go along with the book. While we were discussing the book, 1 Samuel 16:7 came to mind. "The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart."

i scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!

This week was a short week for us. We finished up at co-op on Monday and headed home to visit family and friends for Memorial Day weekend. I think we actually only got in one day of schooling. I had fun planning and preparing this theme for the girls though! I got all of the printables from Making Learning Fun. I will say that there was a whole lot of cutting involved! So, we may do this theme again next week, just to make me feel better at how much time I put into cutting and stiching the felt ice cream cone! I still have a few things planned that we didn't get to do yet.
