have i ever mentioned, how much i love cross-curriculum? combining different subjects? yesterday, was one of those days. after the basics were done, we took divine pleasure in soaking up a gorgeous spring day in michigan! i spruced up the yard a bit, while my boy worked on his world war two bunker. in the fall, he had dug this entire thing... a great place for his friends and him to play airsoft wars. for me, the crazy homeschool mom... i count this as: recess, gym, history and one heck of an art project! can you imagine doing this in an institutionalized school? he'd be discouraged for thinking outside the box, kicked out because of the mud... and he probably would be teased for wearing wellingtons. i'm just saying... i love homeschooling.
