I can't remember if these were a present or a purchase, but I think they'll come in handy in the future, especially for my animal-loving kiddo.<br /><br />If you didn't want to spend the money on x-rays, I wonder if you could print x-ray images off of Google Images, and work with them that way. You couldn't work with them on a light table, but you could trace and match and copy them, etc. I've also seen these x-ray sets sold more inexpensively at American Science and Surplus--I won't go check if they're there right now, because every time I log onto that page, I spend a hundred dollars on randomness.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18141123092139829629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255877501892467740.post-2048635217787363352013-10-05T22:26:03.463-04:002013-10-05T22:26:03.463-04:00So, we are getting ready to start with animal clas...So, we are getting ready to start with animal classification. Trying to decide how to get started, so I came to your site for inspiration :0)<br /><br />Have the girls used the animal x-rays since your classification studies? Trying to decide if we should splurge and buy them or just find something else. <br /><br />By the way, thanks for all the awesome blog posts about your adventures in learning. I plan to use your site often for inspiration when we are not sure what to do next!Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09611764295297526639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255877501892467740.post-30373318043230637832013-04-29T16:14:31.085-04:002013-04-29T16:14:31.085-04:00Ha ha!

It amuses me to think of all the children, right down to Ancient Rome, who have pitched a fit over learning their Latin. Some day long ago, some other little kid, sitting in the dirt wearing a toga, probably also screamed its head off because it got fenestra and mura mixed up.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18141123092139829629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255877501892467740.post-29612926980559560322013-04-26T18:09:23.903-04:002013-04-26T18:09:23.903-04:00Sounds like the girls are enjoying horse lessons. ...Sounds like the girls are enjoying horse lessons. One thing I saw on-line somewhere was this woman on youtube giving a demonstration where the bones where painted onto the horse, and she used the horse as a teach tool. Here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=kV3Gnse1V3A.<br /><br />One thing that we have done with Emma for fun is to print off words onto paper, laminate them, then play with them in the tub. Not sure if that would work for the girls and their Latin. Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09611764295297526639noreply@blogger.com
