Today, we're takng a deeper look at ancient Egyptian culture, including what they believed and how it influenced how they lived (and died)! Want a peek at how we made our own sarcophogus craft? Click this photo in our bio link for our video!⁠ Get your pharoah on today with four simple crafts designed to encourage imaginative, play-based learning! But if your child doesn't want to do them all, no worries! (What pharaoh says goes, right? 😉) Instead of rushing them to the next activity, allowing for extended play with one lesson encourages deeper concentration and a longer attention span—all skills they'll need as they continue their education journey! 🧠⁠ Every lesson this week brings us one step closer to our final activity—an archeological dig! ⛏️ Today, we're taking a closer look at Egyptian writing and all archeologists have been able to learn from ancient hieroglyphs found on artifacts from pyramids and tombs, including a "papyrus"-making craft that will give them a new appreciation for the construction paper in your supply cabinet. 😜⁠ Pack your bags (and hop in a time machine 😉) because we're heading to ancient Egypt this week! Today's lessons touch on some topics we covered in our Ponds, Lakes + Rivers Unit, so help your child make the connections if they don't on their own. 🎣 You'll also start a mummifying experiment that you'll complete on Friday, introducing them to the idea of longer-term projects. ⌛ As you introduce the unit, spend some extra time doing map work and try to show them Egypt on a globe, Atlas, Google Earth—as many ways as you can—to make it real for them. 🗺️⁠ Have you started thinking about your homeschool curriculum for next year? The Learn + Live Letter offers week- and month-long unit studies for children preschool to fifth grade! Our hands-on, play-based lessons bring topics to life, giving your child an empathetic world view, an insatiable love for learning, and all the skills they need to succeed academically—in a way that's fun for you to teach, too! 🧠⁠ To migrate or hibernate...that is the question! Today's lesson features a video that makes for a perfect opportunity to practice narration. (Not sure what that is? Click this photo in our bio link for our IGTV how-to video!) Here are a few things to keep in mind when teaching this skill:⁠ After today's obstacle course activity, you'll never look at a sprinkler the same! Get outdoors and work out some wiggles while you learn about the migratory behaviors of salmon 🐟 and crabs 🦀—we promise they'll ask to do this lesson over and over! ⁠ If we've said it once, we've said it a hundred times: Children need us to bring abstract concepts into a concrete world! Activities like our butterfly number placemat help children to develop a holistic understanding of concepts in a hands-on, tactile way. But remember to follow their lead—when they're done with an activity, it's time to move on to something else.⁠ 🚨 GIVEAWAY CLOSED 🚨 Thank you so much to everyone who watched our IG LIVE with @itsjuliwilliams about how to incorporate Montessori-inspired schooling into your homeschool! (Missed it? Click this photo in our bio link to watch it now!) One of the Montessori tools we use often in our Learn + Live Letter unit studies is the Montessori moveable alphabet—in fact, Juli was the person who first inspired us to try it! And now we're excited to give away a moveable alphabet and mat + a FREE month of Learn + Live Lessons!! 🎉🎉🎉⁠
