Science Picture Books for Kindergarten

We came across some pretty cool Nature Study/Science picture books that I read to Julia throughout this last Kindergarten year, and I thought I would share them here, as I am always on the lookout for good, living books. Here they are, in no particular order:

A Look Back on Our Year with Ambleside Online

I feel like this year was a big year for me, with having three official students (one of those being in high school) and pre-schooling twins. I'm not sure how the year managed to fly by, but it did and we have closed up the books. There have been so many good books floating on and off the shelves and it makes me sad to think that some of these won't be opened again for a long time. Thankfully, I have some young kids to cycle through all these old friends and I look forward to reading with them in the future.

Disciples See Christ Walking on Water, Henry Osawa Tanner

I realized that I haven't posted lesson plans since the beginning of the Sunday school year, so I wanted to update for those who need help or ideas!

We continue to follow a simple structure to our Children's Church time each Sunday. Due to Covid, we are low on kids and teachers/helpers. It's been a struggle to keep it staffed, but we've felt it is still very important to continue teaching the kids and keep it as normal as possible for them, at church. 

What We've Been Up To

It's super easy to get discouraged by other's progress and that isn't what this post is supposed to do... but instead, to encourage all you moms who are just quietly working each day with one or two or more children. All that consistent work each day really adds up. We're feeling cooped up, like everyone else in the world, but we are working on being kind, doing our best work, and habit training. I thought I'd share a peek in pictures of the past few weeks.

We just finished the MEP Reception year!
