I've always looked forward to Fridays....who doesn't?? I also look forward to Tuesdays, because it happens to be Matt's day off and it's nice to have him around the house. That is also the day we do most of our field trips.
Last year we went to the The P.T. Barnum Museum in Bridgeport, Connecticut. A lot of times we'll read a book and then go see the movie. This year we went to the Crayola Factory, and course we had to go the pumpkin patch in the fall. We went to the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade. Yes, we learned about the history of the parade before we went. You can almost make any trip educational! Even a trip to the grocery. :o)
But Friday is what I'm excited about today! It's the day when I know that our brains will get a rest. Not that we ever stop learning, but it's more laid back.
We have a separate room for school. It is our "school room". The boys don't normally go in there unless it's a school day or they need to use the computer for something. We tried the "have school at the kitchen table" thing, it just didn't work for us. I am very fortunate that we have a room that is made just for school. That way everything is in one room and we don't have to put stuff out of sight when we don't want to think about school.
On Fridays I do clean up that room so that it's neat and ready for Monday morning. So I suppose that is what I should be doing now........
No recipe today. Caleb has basketball practice and we have our small group meeting at the house tonight. So I guess there's no need to leave a recipe for pizza rolls! :o)
