Family Schooling Summary: Class Fair Spring 2016

Co-op school ended this week with the class fair.  We had a STEM theme this time. Any class that had a STEM topic was asked to provide an activity booth.  Our Hot Wheels Engineering class made a self-propelled car. 

My CSI class booth just had a poster and a Mystery Challenge that people could take home to figure out whodunnit. 

Big sister A worked on the cup challenge with her friend.

 The most popular class this semester was the microprocessors. I hear it was excellent, but all our kids were too young to be enrolled.

This is the booth from the Mother Goose on the Loose class that brother S took.  His teacher was amazing.  They had lovely crafts and songs for each nursery rhyme.



Big sister A took a fun Korean class.  She loved learning it and I hope Uncle C will quiz her when we see them at the family reunion.

Little brother S made this self-propelled car with a BLUE balloon, of course.

For FHE we made each of the 3 older kids a mason jar bank. They have been wanting a new chore chart system.  We liked how Uncle P had a more direct do-the-chore-add-to-your-money tally system, and decided to do something similar with the money jars.  They do a chore or are an extra good helper and get some change asap in their jar. Then we avoid the weekly sum-up and make payments step. So far so good, but it always goes well the first couple weeks. Ask me in a month or two?
