Yummy geography...

Just a quick post to share our geography lesson yesterday...we've been talking about landforms this month...defining them, talking about how they're formed, finding them on the map, etc. Inspired by these awesome land and water form trays I'd seen in a catalog years ago, we'd been talking, too, about landform pairs. Because I'm cool like that, yesterday's lesson incorporated all of that along with frosting, graham crackers and a touch of blue food coloring...

Here's Noah's strait/isthmus:

And Asher's bay/peninsula:

(Asher got a bit excited when I told them they could eat their landforms after we were finished...hence the, ahem, "mountain" (of chocolate frosting) on the bay cracker, lol.) And here's Micah's island:

Yeah, Micah ate the lake before I remembered to grab the camera. ;)

And that's just a wee part of why my boys love homeschooling... ;)
