L.E.N.S. Photo Challenge - Back To School

We just came back from a week long vacation at Grandpa's house where we helped with a remodeling projects he wanted done. We took our second week of homeschool work with us. I am proud to say we accomplished all of our lessons for the week.

It worked out wonderful for us to be at Grandpa's house in the mountains because for our Botany lessons last week we needed to identify different kinds of plant Phylums. It was wonderful to be able to walk around his yard and identify the ones we learned about. Taking samples and eyeing them closely.

This is my daughter working on her Seedless Vascular drawing... a fern in Grandpa's yard.

I loved how this week our classroom wasn't just at a table in a room. It was Inside, at a table in the garage, outside on Grandpa's back deck, and in the forest floor all around us. It was simply magnificent.




I am linking up with Jen @ Home Is Where You Start From and her photo meme L.E.N.S. (LEarning Never Stops) Photo Challenge. This week's theme is Back To School.
