How we homeschooled today #87

An excellent new book

In brief today. We had Athletics Club this morning, and a visit from family this afternoon, so there’s not much to report. The usual morning work went rather well today, although sadly I have no idea why so have no way of replicating it.

But I wanted to post anyway because we received a gift today of this book, which I think is rather good:

Here are some of the questions:

• Why are plants green?

• Why don’t spiders stick to their webs?

• Who invented music?

• When were the first houses built?

• Why does the Universe keep expanding?

And they’ve got experts to answer some of the questions, like theoretical physicist Jim Al-Khalili and oceanographer Helen Czerski. It would make a great gift. Apparently it’s good for ages 5-8, but I quite want to read it through myself this evening.

No post tomorrow because we have a special family day planned and it has been declared a No Work Day.

Have a great weekend!
