Books

I hit the mother load in FREE books!!!!! Our church closed their preschool and offered up all their books and supplies to families in the church. So, during the 11 am service last week I went and picked through the books. I could not believe my good fortune. :) Myself and a fellow homeschool mom sat there looking through several hundred books passing them back and forth! I came home with 50 books!!!!! All of them really good books. So I hope to share them with you over the next few weeks. Here are our first three that we have used this week.

My 50 books from church!!!!

Officer Buckle and Gloria by Peggy Rathmann is a super funny and cute book! The girls and I loved it!

Down by the Station by Will Hillenbrand is a book you can sing! The girls love any book that you can sing the words. It is a favorite with all of us! Fall Leaves Fall by Zoe Hall. We did a unit study on leaves this past week using this book! It's full of craft ideas and lots of info on changing of seasons. Great for unit study on fall.
This craft idea was taken from the book Fall Leaves Fall. Yes, that is a Palin bumper sticker covering my child's name. :) Go Palin!!!! :) The girls made objects from the different fall leaves we collected on a nature walk. They made birds, princesses, fish and spiders! :)

Pigs from 1 to 10 by Arthur Geisert. We are going to use this book this week to do a unit study on the numbers 1-10. I love the illustrations in the book they are beautiful!
