Family Schooling Summary: March at the home school co-op

 I've missed a couple weeks of co-op school updates.  The kids are learning quite a bit, but mostly having a lot of fun in their classes. 

 Hapkido class - practicing self defense moves

 In Miss L's Kindermusic class the teacher brought real Mexican jumping beans! They were amazing. They jump when they get warm.  It is because they are not actually beans at all. They are little cocoons with tiny caterpillars inside.

 The kindermusic curriculum has a lot of cute ways to get kids excited about music and teach things like rests and quarter notes at the same time.

 We played in the snow one week and then had gorgeously warm weather the following week. Spring!

In master builders they had a substitute teacher one week and just built whatever they wanted.

 Once the regular teacher came back they had a new challenge. They were supposed to make a wall around their house to keep it from flooding. Then they added water to test their designs.  M says his design worked "pretty well".  The middle stayed dry.

The activity girls had a mother daughter service project and craft day.  We made 40 lunches for a homeless shelter.
