WW!">It’s WW!

I’m so excited to kick off the first official WW!

After receiv­ing my first com­ment to the post about Watch­tower Wednes­day, I real­ized (QUICKLY) that that may be too restric­tive.  To only use Watch­tower mag­a­zines?  When the Awake! mag­a­zine is extremely resource­ful, too!  AND… the awe­some pub­li­ca­tions that are at our disposal…

So, with ALL that being said, […]

On the Watch Wednesdays!

Ok, so I’m look­ing for a bit of a ‘pick-me-up’.

I’m a cro­cheter, and I’ve seen TONS of blogs that have things to get oth­ers involved:

Dish­cloth Tues­day, Filet Fri­days, Scarf Sunday, etc.

What I’m propos­ing — every Wednes­day, we will include one Watch­tower Arti­cle in our Lesson.

This is not the same as the Sun­day study arti­cle, just a […]

Do you believe in love…?

Huey Lewis is stuck in my head now!

Any­way, I believe I have fallen in love. Or at least in DEEP affec­tion for an awe­some resource that I just found today!
It’s every­thing a home­school­ing mom could dream of (if you have dreams about spelling, anyway).

So, what is this dream-come-true-head-over-heels-in-love-with-resource?
It’s called Spelling City. It […]

Food Pyramid lesson plan

I decided to write up what we did, (and what YOU can do), as a les­son on The Food Pyramid.

Vocab­u­lary

nutri­tion
calo­ries
vit­a­mins
healthy
food pyra­mid
fruits
veg­eta­bles
grain
meat/protein
dairy

Name the 5 food groups
– Each group has a dif­fer­ent color, so we used 5 dif­fer­ent col­ors of construction paper.

Cat­e­go­rize foods
Cut Pic­tures out of food mag­a­zines to clue on the cor­rect color paper. We used […]

The Food Pyramid

It’s been a short while since I’ve posted our progress, so I fig­ured I’d share today.

We’re learn­ing about the Food Pyra­mid, and how you should have a food from EACH
group with EACH meal. This is, I hope, a start to eat­ing bet­ter as a family.

The girls have become mini-food detec­tives. They eval­u­ate every­thing now, […]
