Some homeschooling initiatve from Jac

Jac making his 3 D city for Wall-E and Eve |
I thought the kids would have a day holiday at the most before we needed to start our new year, but they will have a month and a half - We are into week 2 now and it is already too much. They are getting bored.
I have ordered my books for the new year and they will come in and we should be able to start school in Mid November. This will be a first for me starting school at the end of a year.... it feels funny.
So here as some pictures of what we did the last couple of months.
With Jac we talked about all different kinds of animals, from farm animals to Dinosaurs
