The special project of the week is making a salt dough "mini" globe. We started these yesterday and let them dry overnight so we could paint them today.
We baked them on low most of the afternoon, and then let them finish drying overnight. Now it is time to paint our globes.
Comparing how much land he has drawn on the globe.
We will be traveling on this journey for the next school year and beyond (since we are getting a late start). If anyone is interested in using this same curriculum, here's the link where we got it: http://www.confessionsofahomeschooler.com/. Click on Geography. We have made a few adjustments to our family and it can be easily adjusted any families religious beliefs or thinking.
My sister-in-law did something similar with her children, only she used the EarthBall. The EarthBall is an inflatable globe made from NASA satellite photos, so it has no borders and no place names. There is nothing to teach the us and them mentality. It just looks like the Earth from space.
