One day 'til Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was busy today, doing last-minute Christmas shopping, so there will be no new chapter today.

Fun fact friday! Make a field journal.

Sorry guys! I missed Fun fact Friday last week! I was sick and now is when I am feeling better. So, today's FFF will not be about the past, it will be about now, and what I am doing today!

I started a Bird watching project. I got a bird field guide, I made a bird field journal, and I started a bird life list. It is a very fascinating hobby for young and old. I will give you a craft today:

Make a field journal:

Materials:
Lined paper
Plain paper
Something to color with (optional)

First fold the three pages of lined paper in half, long ways, up and down, then cut it right in the middle after you folded it. Put them inside each other like a book. Now get ONE piece of plain paper (printing paper) And do the same thing you did with the lined paper. Use it as the cover for your book. When you are done, you can take crayons, markers, or coloring pencil if you want, and make a little picture on the front cover. Or you could just write (Your name here)'s Field journal. Now when you go on a hike, write down everything you saw. and draw pictures. Don't forget the date!

No posts on.......

No posts on Monday! Sorry. My family and I go to a homeschool co-op on Monday, so if you ask me a question, I won't answer until Tuesday or later. Sorry! I am gone all day on Monday. I leave at 7:30 and come back at 6:30.
