Preparing for Shark Week

Posted in Homeschooling

We enjoy watching Shark Week on the Discovery Channel every year. Sunday begins Shark Week for this year. Instead of just watching, we decided to make a mini unit study out of it.

I knew that Munchkin would have fun munching on them while we were on the road. Plus, I had some delicious ideas in mind… Today, I made up 2 blueberry pies to put in the freezer for D when he gets home in a few months.
