They come with some donation solicitation, I have gotten so many I keep them for wrapping paper or pitch them (and because we don't have so much wall space). Thanks for sharing what you are doing with both. I'm still trying to decide how much to do. We may ease into it instead of a big official start and see how much feels comfortable, but something similar to what you are doing with Anna.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03647116892177098796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35968210.post-33944297904170054942013-08-19T11:54:13.914-04:002013-08-19T11:54:13.914-04:00Julia that is exactly what i want...some MAPS!!

I used to do a weekly "scavenger hunt" with my kids and our map of the US; I'd have them find three rivers west of the Mississippi, two cities in Ohio with a population of more than 100,000, a state with more than six lakes, etc. They begged to do this, and it was THE easiest way to learn to read a map, because I could brief them on the various keys beforehand. When they got a bit older I had one of the kids make up the scavenger hunt.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06668252458131596362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35968210.post-67407700770529183032013-08-18T05:23:43.904-04:002013-08-18T05:23:43.904-04:00So exciting!

I am very pleased to have graduated beyond the kids just doing chores whenever I said. They have gotten really good at their jobs now.Katherine T.

Thanks for all the good ideas! Good luck with your school year! :)<br />LaurenLauren Frischhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08950040753603976784noreply@blogger.com
