Five in a Row Art: How to Make an Apple Pie...


This weeks Five in a Row book is How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World. Instead of writing reports, we're all going to do apple art in different media each day! We started with painting. I said "We're going to paint apples!" And Beanie age 3 took me literally. The apples go in age order from the left Lee (that's me!), Ginger 13, Momo 11, ds 8, ds 6, and Beanie 3.

Last week it was history reports...my 13 stayed up until after midnight on Friday night doing hers. Not making it perfect or beautiful but just getting the words on paper. Not worth taking a picture of, that's for sure! And how like her mother all through school! On a positive note, she did not hesitate to stand up in front of the family to read it (like last week)!

Oh that is so cute-he painted the apple!! I loved, loved doing Five in a Row with my kids. We went through Volume 1 two times (since I have 3 kids in different age brackets.) :)
How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World was one of our favorites.

Apple art looks like fun. And what dedication your dd has in writing her reports. Big applause for her.

Those are adorable! My girls would love it if you would come and do art with them!
