Studying Horses~ Kinder Homeschool Semester #2





Jaden and Morgan are well into the 2nd semester of their kindergarten program. They have both already learned so much! They each have a binder that is full of their 1st semester items. I had intended to use one binder for the whole year, but it is already full!! This means that they will have a binder for each semester instead. I will keep it for them to look back on and refer to. As they get older, they can use their binders for later years to help them when putting together a portfolio or other presentation for college, jobs, or whatever they may need them for.

Chapter 14 brought us to study horses. In studying horses, I decided it was the perfect time for a field trip. Even though it was in the 20's temperature-wise, we were in the moment- We discussed the differences between horses and humans, and on cue, one of the horses decided to show how they do not use a "potty". Morgan and Jaden both thought it was hilarious, of course!
