The Lorax - Part 2

Here is all the photos of what the kids did for the Lorax homeschooling.

We are back in Macedonia and finished our units here. It was crazy the last few weeks in Turkey we we decided not to school.

I have also decided to during the Summer only do the basic's with the kids, languages and Maths. It is not easy to school when the whole country is on holiday.... Let's see how it goes.

Printouts of some of the info I used

We talked about Fanny Crosby

All the info I used for school

I made notebooks for them and each got Truffalo Tree pencil

Our bible was about Jonah

Extra work about the Great Kapok Tree

Jac was reading this book

Neo-Rie's reading for Afrikaans

Neo-Rie and Zanes's reading



Our Art project was about the Tree of Life- As I have mentioned we decided to do our own versions of this tree and how we see it.
Jac's tree of life is full of planets -(No surprise here)

Neo-Rie saw this tree with its roots in the water and- very long roots and decided to paint this

Zane wanted his trees (both in the garden of Eden) to have some of the same branches.
The tree of life and the tree of knowledge being connected.
This is the inside of our note-lapbooks we made.
