U.S. History Project

Famous World War II Battles

The students were assigned partners and then picked the battle they wanted to do a project on.  Kaitlyn got first pick and asked for Pearl Harbor.

Drawing out the Pearl Harbor air strike

 Kaitlyn used shaving cream, glue and food coloring for the ocean

and play-doh for the land, buildings and ships. She did this part of the project by herself at home and spent a good part of the weekend doing it.

SWISH! 

You can barely see the ball in this photo, but it went in.  Twice!  Aubrey also made a basket in this game while being knocked down.  She got to shoot a free throw for that, but it didn't fall.   Aubrey had a total of 4 points in this game and we only won by 5.

A Whirlwind Winter in Reverse

Kaitlyn's crazy winter schedule is almost over.  She participated in basketball, Bravettes and three Club Volleyball tournaments (one more to go), while carrying a tough class load and finishing with all A's.  I don't know how she does it -- we just kind of hang on for the ride!

My Life is a Cartoon

Sometimes, I see myself in the funny papers....

Aubrey didn't find this humorous -- I wonder why?!

Sorry, it's so small.  When I made it bigger, it didn't fit the blog page.  If you click on the cartoon, you should be able to read it.
