From the weekend

My parents visited over the weekend and brought with them various educational type gifts, which were put into use straight away.
Testing PH.


Ia, of course, had something to make.
Then today we were back to our home ed routines.
Recently we have aquired some non fiction books, on various topics. Usually the boys are not that interested in just reading these books in their own time. There are so many story books they would rather read before getting round to the non fiction. So, for this week, in the reading slot, I'm asking them to spend some time reading non fiction by themselves. I usually read aloud to them at that time, but these kinds of books have too many illustrations and diagrams to make that interesting. By doing it this way they will quite happily read the books.
