The 4th session was chapters 49-51; Vikings, Castles, and Knights.
We started with the art project- body traces so that the kids could design their own armor!
Very fun! I have them hanging on the stairs since some of my kids now wear very large life sized armor!
The active activity was castle building. I gave them a choice of building materials, but in the end everyone wanted to build with the large cardboard bricks (presumably because you could build a castle you could step into).
And, of course, Legos.The snack was mincemeat pie (and grape juice "wine").
This was the first time I had made mincemeat pie with actual meat, but it was really tasty! I used ground beef, apples, whole ground oranges, and whatever dried fruit I had on hand (cherries, apricots, and raisins).The 5th session was chapters 52-54: Normans- Crusades.
Our active activity was the game Going to Jerusalem (which turns out to be the original name for Musical Chairs!)Our art activity was designing coats of arms.
Our snack was apples, cheese, and bread.
And I'm almost caught up!
