Today was a productive and fun day at Morgan Academy. Izzy and Jack received a history lesson, geography lesson, writing practice, and crafting all in one. They got a boat load of information and had fun working on their Connecticut Lapbooking project. Jack’s favorite thing about CT are the singing robins and Izzy loves pink sunset clouds. 🙂
They learned all about:
- Where we are in Connecticut
- Where Connecticut is
- The capital of Connecticut
- State facts about Connecticut
- When Connecticut was founded
- The thirteen colonies
- The thirteen colonies flag and today’s flag
Lapbooking is my favorite method of instruction. It entails a bit of extra planning and supplies but overall, it’s so much fun. Also, I didn’t realize Nathan Hale was the official hero of CT. I learn something new everyday here at Morgan Academy.
Many Blessings and Happy Homeschooling,
