Katherine's Latest Field Trip - To a Bio Lab!


Katherine has been asking all about what Matthew does at school and has been very interested in the bio lab. She has been drawing pictures of laboratories and scientists. Matthew got permission from the head of the Biology Department over at the community college to let Katherine come in for a visit. She looked at fish bones, skin cells, and bacteria under the microscope, saw human skeletons, how the inside of an eye looks, how the heart functions, what a baby looks like at different stages while in a mommy's belly, and much more. Matthew told us that Katherine really took to the microscope and handled it better than many college students he has seen! She now says that she might want to be a scientist when she grows up!

Homeschool Events have been fun!!!






As you can see, we've been swimming, and hiking, and Katherine got the chance to go to a festival and make her own pot and her own felt ball like they did long ago. We also have a fire station trip planned for Katherine, a zoo trip for all of us, and a trip to the museum of art! And that is just until the first week of October!!! Stay tuned to see more fun and adventure produced by "Bountiful Academy" in Sanford. LOL
