Clubs Tomorrow!

All -

Clubs will be tomorrow, February 1st, at Mandy's house.

Knights will be working with electricity; ending our study of Ben Franklin and getting an introduction to Thomas Edison.

Morgan is in charge of the book/activities for Little Women this month. Tomorrow they will be having fun with a project and treats based on The Secret Garden.

Please keep in mind there will NOT be another 'clubs' meeting this month. (This was decided at our last clubs meeting.) We will be having the Valentines party in its place. It is scheduled for Valentines Day at the Annabella Town Center. There will be more on this activity at clubs tomorrow.

Library Party

The librarian from the Richfield library called to let me know that they are having a special book party that will include the Bernstein Bears and crafts on Monday at 2:00.  She wanted it to be especially for homeschoolers and so I told her I would let you all know about that.  It sounds neat, I think if you have smaller kids they will really enjoy it.  I also think it is great that the library is making some cool accommodations for the homeschool crowd.  I hope a bunch of you can make it.  Heather F.

Attention:Scholars

Hi Guys and Gals

Time to get going again with scholar club.  We will be meeting the second and fourth Thursday's.  Our first meeting will be January 13th and we will have our Huck Finn discussion.  This being our first meeting of the semester we will have dinner and watch Huck Finn as well so we will meet at 6 PM.   Look to an earlier post to remind yourselves of the chapters you have been assigned.  I want you to briefly explain what happened and come up with one question for discussion.  I hope all of you have started a book from the TJED For Teens book list, if not now is the time!  Our club dues will be due on that night as well and will be $10.  I look forward to seeing each of you!  Heather

Knights!


OK. Really, I have been on this for awhile. Laura always beats me to the punch! (OK, she just reminds me of the details that I try really hard to forget. Thank you!!)

We are going to start with Ben Franklin! Did you know that his father was a candle/soap maker? Well, he tried to get Ben into the family business, but it didn't work out. Let's make candles Tuesday to see what Ben missed out on! (OK, let's be fair...... ours won't be NEAR as smelly!)

Please bring your $15 for the semester fee! Thanks!

Mandy

Back to Clubs

Happy New Year to all! It's time again to start up clubs.
This Tuesday we will meet at Bastian's at 12:45 p.m. Please come and bring your club dues for this semester. For Liberty Girls it's $15.

Liberty Girls will be learning about Josefina the American Girl. This week's activity will be based on the first book in the series, "Meet Josefina."
I'm so excited to learn about he Mexican-American culture with all of you!
We'll listen to music and learn some Fandango dance steps, have a sample of traditional Mexican food, and practice some Spanish phrases. We'll be planting seeds for you to take home, care for, and watch grow.

Adios,
LauraC.
