School


Here's us at school. Our mom's actually a really good teacher and makes fun activites. We read and write every day, and do math and science like biology and plant life, and we talk a lot about different ideas. In our school hut, we have a Literature Timeline, which is a 6 foot piece of bamboo with centuries marked on it. Every time we read a book, we make a marker for the timeline with the name of the book, where it took place and when in time it was. So far we have books from pre-history (Wolf Brother), Ancient Japan (The Cat Who Went to Heaven), 1500's Japan (Vagabond), 1840's America (Tom Sawyer), 1970 Alaska (Julie of the Wolves), and the Future - 2194 (The Ear, The Eye, and the Arm). It's pretty cool.
