Summer School

Photobucket
One of the great things about homeschooling is that almost anything can be a teaching opportunity.  This summer, we've taken advantage of a lot of local farms that have Upick berries.  In the spring we picked strawberries, which we've done quite a bit.

Last month we got to pick blueberries, which is something we've never done before.  We've had lots of fun learning about seeds and sun how things grow.

The really great part is that everyone gets to do it together.  Jadon picked about a quart of blueberries himself.

Chloe did great, she picked more than half a gallon!  What a champ!

Even Isaac got in on the fun, riding along on Momma's back.

Micah got a little distracted, but still managed to get quite a few berries in his bucket!
