Our "Expedition Earth" is Completed!!!

Good morning, as we were approaching the finals days of the first grade, we were finishing our various curricula. Most of them offer a Certification of Completion, which is something fun to give to the student, and helps them to have a feeling of accomplishment and also gives them that great feeling that vacation is right on the corner!!

If you have been following our blog, you know I chose Expedition Earth from Confessions of a Homeschooler for our Geography Curriculum for first grade. What I like about the Curriculum is that it is very hands on, she put together lots of crafts in it, there are recipes so you can try dishes from the countries you are "visiting".

We had lots of fun "visiting" 29 countries and learning about Antarctica and the Arctic Circle. We started by making use of most of the activities but our days in school were getting pretty long and Little V wasn't much excited towards the end of the day, so I decided to leave some of the activities behind and use them for the next time we use this curriculum.

I can't believe first grade is coming to an end!! Time went by so fast, it feels like it was yesterday that we were building a model of the Great Wall of China.

Now, it's time to start searching for the Second Grade Geography Curriculum!

That's it for today! Hope you are having a great day and thanks for stopping by!
