Weekly Response: Lesson Learned


Well kids, it's the last week of September! I bet you have learned a ton of cool things since school started. If you would like to share any of the projects you've done, stories you've written or any other school-related activity, please send it to me. I'd love to see what you are working on. I can even share it on this blog or in Class Connect if you want!


For this week's response...

Tell us about something you learned in one of your courses in September.

Have a wonderful October!

Weekly Response: Look What I Did with a Leaf!

Ah, fall. I can smell it in the air! Pretty soon we will notice the leaves changing colors as the days get shorter and shorter. This is my favorite time of year! Why? I love bundling up, going on walks, crunching through the foliage, and finding leaves with amazing color designs on them. 


Then coming home, sipping a cup of apple cider, and admiring our new leaf collection!

Then what?

If you go on a leaf collecting nature adventure, you might get home and decide to cuddle in a blanket and read a fall-themed book, like Look What I Did with a Leaf! by Morteza E. Sohi.



This might inspire you to make a leaf animal...



or perhaps a few leaf critters... 



or a regal crown...



or a fabulous candle holder...

from Red Ted


or a leafy banner of thanks!



Can you see why fall is one of my favorite seasons?

What do you enjoy most about fall?
