Our second week of school was lots of fun and very productive. I forgot about taking pictures for most of the "fun" stuff but, trust me, it was good. :)
On Tuesday, we had our first Science Co-Op gathering at Jenn's house. She taught the kids about polymers. They made "slime" and had jello with their lunch. The kids all had a good time together and the "class" was a success!
We continued with much of our other normal day-to-day activities and then took Friday "off" since Pappaw was in town. We went to Joann's to get fabric for our Halloween costumes and a weaving kit for Lily since she so thoroughly enjoyed our weaving activity last week.
As soon as we got home, she started working on her potholder. When she began, all of the pieces on the bottom were red and it was difficult for her to weave properly without picking up an extra piece here or there.
She was becoming increasingly frustrated so we ended up taking it all apart and starting over by alternating red and blue on the bottom. She was much more successful and worked diligently on the potholder throughout the evening and I helped her finish the edges just before bed time!
She was very proud of herself! So, weaving lesson = success!
