We checked out some books at the library on Vikings, one of which had some awesome Viking crafts, and today completed our Viking ships. These are not quite as elaborate as the book, but pretty cool still!
Here are the boys playing with their ships. :) The blue baby chair is Iceland, the blue yoga mat is the ocean, the green yoga mat is Greenland, and the caste across more water is North America. (Pay no attention to proportions, exact placement, or what kind of sense it doesn't make to have a castle in North America. :) ) Pretty fun!
P.S. Update: I already decided against that LDS curriculum I was thinking of using next year. When it comes time to move beyond the Bible study included in our curriculum, probably next year, we will just add other scripture study as it's own curriculum. I'll share what system we start using once we get to that point! I do however like rotating Science, and Spanish most of the time. Social Studies has now become more consistent and a base for our other subjects. Even cooking :). A couple weeks ago, chef Superman and I, made and served some patriotic layered white yogurt, raspberries, blueberries, and granola for the brothers.
