School is out

Well we have officially finished the boys 6th grade year. We had a fabulous year with ups and downs that come with a pre teen and teenager BOYS. But I survived and they survived so I think all is good. We finished up with our middle ages unit just in time for vacation in Branson.
Which was so much fun. We were there before all of the other schools were out and the crowds were next to nothing. We got back from Branson and celebrated Daddy graduating from college. We then had a huge graduation party where almost 80 of our closest friends showed up. I wish that John's vacation couldv'e lasted for another week. I will be posting throughout the summer just because we are out of school doesn't mean we quit learning!!!!

Battle Shields

We are still working on our Middle Age unit. Today we worked on making our battle shields. It was very interesting discovering what the different colors,animals and designs meant. When a knight was in battle they had to be able to distinguish whether another knight was friend or foe. You had to be able to tell all of that from their shield. The colors had to be very bright so that you could see the shields from far away. The boys thought the most interesting thing was if you had an animal that the tongues, claws, eyes were bright red. This stood for courage and fierceness. Very Interesting!!!
