We haven't done a whole lot of documented school work the last couple days but we did read a stack of books before bed last night. These were actually really amazing books- they covered just about every subject within a few children's books.
* Greetings from Somewhere - The Mystery of the Icy Prints by Harper Paris ( this is a cute and simple geography/ science/ a bit of history short chapter book series that is picture loaded and easy enough they could read it on their own. This is the first book we've tried in the series and so far the girls are very slowly starting to warm up.
* Star Stuff - Carl Sagan and the Mysteries of the Universe by Stephanie Roth Sisson ( River chose this as her first "real" book to read. Proud mama!)
*Have you Thanked an Inventor Today by Patrice McLaurin ( Very cute book about the inventions we use throughout our typical day)
*We are Family by Patricia Hegearty Illustrated by Ryan Wheatcroft
*Grandmother Fish by Johnathan Tweet ( I LOVE this book about evolution!)
*Zen Socks by Jon J. Muth ( this is one of Story's favorite series or not really series, but multiple books like this.)
*Mapping Sam by Joyce Hesselberth. THIS BOOK! I can't say enough great things about this book. It uses a cat and shows many different types of maps from graphs, to depths to the human body and more! I love this book!
*My Shape is Sam by Amanda Jackson. For some reason River struggles with shapes, so I get all the cute shape themed books I can. This had a bonus message of not always having to be defined as one thing or another but just be yourself.
*And of course some good ol' Cobweb the Cat reader from All About Reading.
