Butterfly and a new desk


Last week was Lesson 21- Bb Butterfly. God Can Make Me New!

As mentioned in my previous post it was a really fun lesson and a fun week. We had family visit, snow, a field trip to Bob's Red Mill, and lots of fun learning about Butterflies and how we are made new in Christ.

Here are the girls being silly at Bob's Red Mill


Our tour guide showed them how wheat is threshed and winnowed.


Today we wrapped up butterfly week with a discussion about how God can make us new.

We will capture a caterpillar when Spring is here and hopefully get to watch one transform into a butterfly. But for now, our mummy cocoons, and drawings of the butterfly life cycle will have to do. The girls seemed to really enjoy this unit.

Finally, Ava got a new 1st grader desk today. She is so happy and can now write more comfortably.

She likes having her own space and a place to keep her books and school supplies (they go inside the desk.)

Today we started our 22nd lesson: Ff Frog. More on that next week:-)

Blessings!
