As part of our Five in a Row studies, this past week, we read through Carol Talley's
Papa Piccolo. This was a wonderful story! Set in Venice, Italy, we had some great geography lessons and now have somewhat of an obsession with gondolas. After our co-op met on Wednesday, the kids were crawling around the house "meowing" and hopping on and off the furniture (aka: their gondolas). While not the best thing to promote the long life of my couches, I have to admite it was very cute. Also, I love seeing them excited about what they are learning. I know it is sinking in when they PLAY what we are studying.
