What we're studying this week

We're focusing on the life of Solomon. In History and Geography, we're reading about the life of Solomon and we're studying maps and charting the regions that he ruled. We have also learned some interesting facts about Queen Makeda better known as the Queen of Sheba. It's really interesting to read the Bible and then look at the maps of the land of that time. The boys and I have enjoyed it so far. They are writing a play about Solomon together as well and we'll record it and play it for our guests during our end of unit celebration in January. We're looking forward to it and will begin making preparations for the celebration soon! This is where we will highlight all of the work that the kids have done during the semester and allow the children to shine.
