We left off in the History Calendar of Book (1) towards the end of June 15. The rest of the day into the 16th and 17th Grandma will cover along with lessons on the Circus in Book (1) and Book (57). Before lessons I want to add a note to parents in our Home Education Program of home schooling a few pointers. That is to make sure you have a line of some kind set up to attach notes of history on beginning with the time of dinosaurs and man through the Bible and into American History along with space for any other history needed. |

Dear Folks: June's Project of the Month is Fresh Fruits and Vegetables Chart. Grandma is going to ask you to do it a little different than what Book (1) has asked for it. Grandma wants the children to think of all kinds of Fruits and Vegetables to list on a chart. Then I want them to record which ones are the favorites of each person in your family. Then I want them to record the ones each of you dislike the most. Then I want to find out about each one that is: |

Another lessons! For this day Grandma is going to give you something on South America and an extra treat with the Video to end the season. Link to South Americaplus more. From Grandma's book (2) it says, "South America is the fourth-largest continent. It is surrounded mostly by water. Only a narrow strip of land connects the continents of South America and North America. The Caribbean Sea is located to the north of the continent. The Atlantic Ocean lies on the east, the Pacific Ocean lies on the west, and the Drake Passage separates South America from Antarctica on the south. |

Good Morning! Grandma is a little oozy from a bout with fever and chills along with constant sleep yesterday afternoon and into the morning. Not sure if it was from cleaning a dusty basement or something Grandma got else wise. I do not anymore of it for sure. Grandma is going to start with the Calendar History, then do some science experiments, and start on some more things about the pioneers with one story possible. May 20, 1851 Emile Berliner, American inventor of the flat-disk phonograph record, was born. |

  Dear Parents: Grandma is so sorry for all the problems. She hopes there will be no more in finishing up the material I want to give to you. I had the Calendar material typed up for the Calendar history typed up last week, but I all at once had connection problems which the new Internet service had to deal with and they thought it was their equipment but it actually all came down to a new rouder even though some other things had to be cleared up in the middle and they are so busy a technician could not come till yesterday. |
