J-J-Jewels

Our most recent studies were that of the letter J for jewels.  Learning that Jesus is MORE valuable than ANYTHING else!!  Even jewels!!  A fun part of our lesson was making some jewelry.  We had several activities to choose from but mom just so happened to buy a new package of straws in a variety of colors so we decided to make a necklace.

Caleb had such fun creating a "pattern."  Only his idea of a pattern is do do a small one, then start a new one.  So, as you look back over the necklace, you really and truly cannot determine where one pattern begins and one ends...hee hee...

We cannot forget that this was our first day of school at our new desk!!!  Didn't dad do an awesome job??   Of course, he isn't quite finished, but we needed to get our things organized so we sorta pushed ourselves in there before he was ready.  

Also, Caleb has found a new favorite book.  This is an adorable book about a mouse and a mole who are best friends.  He absolutely loved it and begged and begged to read another chapter.  It's a beginner chapter book and so cute!  Didn't really have anything to do with our lessons, but we read for fun, too!

Until next time,
