Friday afternoon state study. We meet with other families and study two states each week. The children range in age from six to thirteen. We have a stack of books about each state and they take turns looking up the state facts and interesting facts about each state. After filling out the sheets for their notebooks we have snack time. The snacks and crafts are about something realting to the states we studied. This week we had apple slices with caramel, peanut butter, nuts and sprinkles along with apple juice. Then the fun begins as each child uses play dough to make a Statue of Liberty model. They all did quite well. I was impressed with the creativity they each displayed. Hope did her best impression of the Statue of Liberty with her crown and torch that she wore all afternoon.
