Just a quick round up

We have not followed the timetable since the middle of last week because our windows were being repaired which proved to be very noisy and a bit of a distraction, but we did what we could.

We made Indian Chutney, which of course relates to our Indian project, but in fact was from the History cookbook under Victorians.

Also James started his decoupage on a shoe box using cut outs from superhero comics as part of our Victorian project and we also discussed inventions, Victorian schools, libraries, the industrial revolution, Florence Nightingale, Dr Barnardo  and did a crossword about the Victorians.

We also used the Egyptian resources that we bought from the museum

Including making a mummy

We also looked at canal boats (part of Victorians and River, Oceons and Coasts project) and worksheets on the the parts of a river.


We used the recipes from the Cricklepit Mill flour and make cookies

Because it was quite chaotic in our house due to the repairs, consequently we spent a lot of the time at Crealy, the park,  museum, the allotment and in Exeter, as well as James starting back with his rugby training twice a week.

Windows are now finished and  today we were out with other Home Educators, visiting Dartington Hall for an activity session in the woods.

Lots of nature study, making charcoal, building dens and lots of play with the other children.

Lovely day.
