Play time/Cleaning out Junk from my Homeschool Cupboard

Will is building a plank house and Ruth is decorating her tipi. Best part of homeschooling is that when kids want to explore some random topic, you get to do it! We also looked at wigwams, wattle and daub, longhouses, earthen houses, and adobe houses. We learned about the benefits of each structure and the regions where they were built.

 Ruth apparently had a blast creating a castle! We used up left over geometry pieces and chalk (that's what is in the bowl). Wet chalk dries really cool.

I cut the bottom off of two milk jugs. Then we played catch.
