We’ve been taking it easy here due to illness but yesterday we did walk some videos on YouTube showing high wire walking.

Mirette lives in Paris, France (as did Madeline) so we continued our discussion of France by learning a little bit about its capital.  We looked at photos, read up on the Eiffel Tower (which she is now attempting to recreate with her Legos) and watched a video of photos.  Doo announced she wanted to live in France.  I said maybe we’d visit some day.

Since both Madeline and Mirette on the High Wire take place in Paris, France I combined the 2 readings today to go along with our France lesson.  After the reading we read a little bit about France and watched a few videos on Youtube showing images from the country.  Doo also did a connect-the-dot activity from Enchanted Learning.  Today was our last Madeline reading and we will continue with Mirette.

I am going to have a schedule change in mid-April so I have been planning on extending our homeschool lessons beyond just what we do with FIAR.  Once I get everything worked out I’ll post more here.
