Geography/History

I have been hoping I would find an easy fix for my printer, but I have come to the conclusion that it finally gave up. Even after changing the ink it is still refusing to print and continues to tell me my ink is empty. Believe me when I say I have pulled those ink cartridges out too many times to count, put them back in, giggled them, pushed them in harder, everything I can think of only to come up with nothing. We have come to the conclusion that we must buy a new printer, so until this happens we are going to be doing other fun things with Geography. Selena, still pulls her scrapbook out and studies through where we left off, and is a little frustrated that we are not able to move forward, but she is welcoming our new activities as well.

Selena loves to look through these cards of the United States, but I can’t count the number of time’s I’ve had to search and search to find the missing ones that she has packed off. I remembered Ticia at Adventures of Mommydum said something about putting them on a ring, so Monday night I punched a hole in every card, and the next morning Selena and I sat down to begin to have fun.

Selena had fun putting the cards onto the ring. Until she so many on there that I had to finally hold the ring as she placed them on.

Oh the joy when she finished the task!

Wow, Look how focused she is while she is discovering the entire concept this new idea.

Then we brought out our scrapbook and Selena had fun comparing the cards to her pages to locate and match up the States we have studies so far. Now I think she will really grow to appreciate these cards even more, and we will be able to make them an extension to our geography studies.
