The kids just love lapbooking

Because we are in the middle of a big move (moving twice within 2 months) and one is an intentional move. I though I would scale down on lapbooks. But the kids insisted that we do more, so here is the latest one.
We did the book the very hungry Caterpillar (In Afrikaans) For Jac just the book was sufficient, but I had to do some extra work for the other two.  

We are nearly finished with Grade 1 and I have started Grade R with Jac.  Zane takes a little bit longer so we are working very hard to finish Grade 4 Afrikaans and English and Grade 3 maths. We will be working hard to get all his subjects on the same level.


We will be moving to Macedonia in the beginning of December and I am not sure what I will be doing then, Maybe start language learning and just working on the basic homeschooling needs. It is a new country and new people so let's see what the future holds.

Here is:
