School with Letter E

E is for egg.  Little man helped make hard boiled eggs.  I have to laugh that he likes to cook and bake but will not try different foods.  So nope he didn't try these when they were done but, he enjoyed helping in the kitchen.

  Each week there are similar activities we do and some unique to the specific letter we are on.   Each week we read books.  Boy, letter E books were a challenge.  A lot of books with the letter E related to names of the characters. We did find some with a little creativity.

E is also for Earth!  After reading a book about Earth we made a craft.  He painted the earth and sun.  He knows the earth rotates around the sun and we read it takes 365 days so the outside of our dial has all the months labeled.

Lastly we celebrated with donuts. Hmmm, I will find a way to sneak a treat. E is for eat! 

This looks like one of our less then busy weeks but, we did continue his folder, various workbooks, writing, and music.

Weekly Recap 10/23

  Last week I stayed busy and on task between crafts, school with my son, and dinner!  What was really exciting was starting our week off catching a rocket in the sky!  I missed the shot in the sky but it is forever in our memories!

I am still reading The Husband's Secret but hope to be done soon.

On deck is The Silent Wife.

  Do you see a theme here?  I had seen a post for it somewhere and selected this as my next read.

Dinner for the week did include a meal out on Tuesday as it was Pink Receipt Day at Chick Fil A.  I moved one recipe to the next day and one recipe got rolled over to next week.

Salmon Alfredo

Cobb salad (Chick Fil A)

Zucchini burgers

Meatloaf

Crafts were in an abundance to include items I made outside my house.

We made mummies, a pumpkin and ghost!

I had fun at my first ladies night out at Home Depot making this Snowman and  decorated a mason jar at my MOPS meetup

   

School with little man was letter E this week.

I look forward to fine tuning this crafting thing and seeing if I can pull off some crafty gifts for the holidays.  I have read a lot lately and plan on keeping this hobby up.  I would like to change somethings up with little man's schooling so we will see how that goes.  Dinner for next week is already to go and I'm excited to go grocery shopping soon!

I hope you had a good week and good luck to both of us for next week.
