Sophia and Olivia have been learning about Grandma Moses as part of homeschooling this year. They have learned a bit about Grandma Moses as well as studied six paintings that she did. Studying about the works of different artists over a block of time is something that follows Charlotte Mason's educational philosophy. How that looks with the girls is that I show them one picture for five minutes. They look and study the image. After five minutes, I close the book and they take turns remembering and orally sharing different parts of the picture. They take turns saying one thing they recalled about the picture, with the goal of not repeating what the other one has said. The art work that the girls looked at as well as they noticed and remembered about the pictures are below. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Mary had a Little Lamb Sophia recalled: - The schoolhouse is made from red brick. - Mary is wearing airy clothes - bright pink. - There are two girls sitting next to the fence making a daisy chain. - As Mary's walking to school, she's carrying a tin bucket. - There are three kids - two girls sitting on a fence and one boy walking on the fence. - There are three houses spread a bit and in front of one is a little gate. - The school mistress is wearing a gray shawl or jacket. - One of the boys is holding a stick in both hands. - There's a tall wooden fence that runs to the school. - Next to the four kids picking daisies, there's mounds of dirt or rock.

P4103383_edited-2 My favourite photo from this spring's lambing season. Had a great day out with the newborn lambs around Bedfordshire & Cambridgeshire.

This seems quite unfair, and I've written a blog entry about it here.
