TOG, Y4, U1 :: Wright Brothers


It's been years since I've posted on this blog site! Well, I've decided to use it to post about some of our homeschool activities. This year we started using Tapestry of Grace, Year 4, which starts in the early 1900s and goes through current day history. I'm excited about studying this time period of history. It seems that all too often we teach history starting at the pilgrims and ending at the Civil War.
Last week Jacob and Emily learned about the Wright brothers and their airplane. We made model planes from instructions we found here and here. Jacob also made a lapbook of the Wright brothers, and I'll post a picture of it when I put new batteries in my camera and take a picture.
