This week we learned about France in our Around the World Homeschool Units.
Books:
We have many wonderful spines we read for each country, but here are some of the picture books we read:
Through the Window (not pictured because the hold took a long time and we read it with Russia)
The Palace of Versailles lift-the-flap page from See Inside Famous Palaces
Paris lift-the-flap page from See Inside Great Cities
Activities:
He colored a map of France
Recipe:
We had Short Rib Bourguignon with mashed turnips. Everyone really liked it.
Read Aloud:
We read Recipe for Adventure #2: Paris. It talked a lot about French food and even a few landmarks in Paris. Archer liked it enough to want to read the first one for Italy, when we get there.
Art:
Art this week was only very loosely tied to France. We did stained glass pasta and attempted to link it to the stained glass in cathedrals. Mostly, I just wanted him to experience dying the pasta and working i a different medium. He insisted on grouping it by color instead of mixing his collage.
