Life as a Schoolhouse: A Counting Board and a Toy
http://www.lifeasaschoolhouse.com/2011/09/counting-board-and-toy.html
A Counting Board and a Toy. Our curriculum instructed us to make one of these, and I'm excited we did. It's a really neat tool. I'm pretty certain I don't understand all the ins-and-outs, but this is what you make when you count by 3's. And this is the process of counting by 4's. Naomi discovered that counting by 6's creates the same star. And, she has been playing with it all afternoon making all kinds of patterns. Who knew learning could be fun?

Timbering on the Homestead. Since we moved in to our new place we've known taking down trees to for sunlight in the garden area would be necessary. Based on accessibility and Permaculture zone systems. There's still a huge pile of logs that weren't worth taking to the mill- according to the guy we used. we're working on it, Drew is trying to cut it all into more manageable lengths, doing some splitting lengthwise for a split rail fence, garden borders, rustic benches, etc. Lastly, we were not really prep...

Life as a Schoolhouse: Busy as the Bees
http://www.lifeasaschoolhouse.com/2012/10/someone-turned-8-since-last-post.html
Busy as the Bees. Someone turned 8 since the last post. When I take long breaks from the blog I get nervous about what to say next. Like, it'd better be important, meaty and enthralling or the people of the e-verse will wonder why I'd bothered. But, it's time to throw caution to the wind and break back in after a long, awkward pause. And we enjoyed a lovely sukkot. I am a little unsure of where to start in terms of what's been up 'round here. Really, what hasn't. So, we're constantly pacing ourselves.

Life as a Schoolhouse: Child Labor
http://www.lifeasaschoolhouse.com/2013/10/child-labor.html
We work them around here. They don't earn their keep, and they're not always cheery, but they work. They are paid in food and shelter and really great birthdays. And when other kids visit their faces light up and they squeal at the opportunity to help reminding us all how great we have it. Here's how it happens:. First, they march (and sometimes run) up to the shed. They fill each scoop. They pull the wagon. They deposit each scoop in the appropriate bowl or trough or tube or bucket. Im glad we did give ...
