Throwback to "Full Life Journey, March 30, 2011"

In the past, I've started and then closed blogs as I either lost the fire for the blog's topic or life just got busy. Before I closed those accounts I saved all the posts. I've decided that doing a series of "Throwbacks" would be a fun way to recapture those lost posts.

March 30, 2011

Last week was completely devoted to working on the Geography Fair presentation.  The kids were reporting on the state of Colorado.  Everyone took part in creating the poster board, researching the state, and presenting the information.  Grace gathered interesting facts about the state.  She thought the most interesting thing she learned was that the oldest living tree in Colorado is about 2,436 years old.  Isaiah had fun learning about the ancient people of Colorado.  He also decided to make an elevation map from clay, which he molded and painted with a little help from his sisters.  Victoria researched the types of food that Coloradoans.  She also made the timeline on the bottom of the board and used beans grown in Pueblo, CO for the timeline markers.  They all had a great time discussing their display with the guests and other participants at the fair.
