Having so much fun

Another week - another day - another Monday, the time is just flying and I cannot believe that we are already in the second week of August, I have the feeling that the time is just flying out of the window. Julia had her second haircut, since we are here in Luperon, this time it is from a proper Hairdresser and you can see the difference, she looks really cute.

Today we had taken the opportunity to do some schooling with Avery and Kaylee. I had received a unit study from New Zealand about Celebration, so first we listened to the story about " Ben and his bike". Its a story about a boy that gets a bike for his 5th birthday and then learns to ride his bike. Once he learns to ride his bike, his family is celebrating the event. Once we listen to the story, the children had to write the story in pictures. From there we went on to create our own little book. We cut paper into the shape of a book and then we sew the pages in the middle together. After that we took a picture from the author to put into the book and the children had to think about the contents of the book, a beginning, a middle and an end of their story. They cut out pictures from magazines, wrote a story alongside and then drew pictures.... the books turned out really nice. And I was really impressed by their effort and creations.

Avery's book was called "Little Pigs Birthday", Kaylee called her book " Bumy the Bee", Julia's book was named "The Wedding Day" and Carlos named his " Piglets Big Movie".
