Our new Blazing Trails Adventure Clubs are off & running! We recently finished our first month of history and science/nature studies. September was Ancient Rome (history) and Geology of the St. Croix River Valley (science/nature). We did everything from staring at potholes to gazing on beautiful statues. We watched a volcano explode and listened to poetry about glaciers. We drew pictures. We listened to great books and great naturalists. We learned how to say our names like the Romans would have said them. We created a whole new set of months just for kicks. We ate olives, grapes, and eggs. Julius Caesar and Cleopatra visited our club meetings. We started making a mosaic. Wow. I'm exhausted just thinking about how much we did! One of our moms wrote to say, "What a way to learn--we had a blast."
