The Last 2 Weeks

Autumn seems to be flying right by.  We've been busy with table time, field trips, Co-op, family, and friends.  The weather hasn't been to cold so we've been trying to enjoy the outdoors as much as possible.

The girls are both doing well with their studies.  Avery's reading is improving everyday and Hannah's multiplication has come a long way.  We just finished studying the circulatory system in science and we are studying Plymouth and the first Thanksgiving in history.  For our state study, we are finally on Connecticut.  I think we will breeze right through since it is our state.

The girls also completed an experiment on how to make chocolate.  First they learned the history of chocolate and it's original uses, then they made their own and got to try it.

I could have gotten a picture of her face when she realized that it was bitter.
