Expedition Earth- France

Expedition Earth- France

Have I mentioned how much we love the Expedition Earth curriculum? It’s definitely my favorite part of the day!

Expedition Earth- France

 This week we learned all about France.  As always Hailey reviewed all of the other countries we have been studying on the map and found the new one as well.

We had a cheese tasting party.

We also learned that in France they like to have a bowl of hot chocolate and then the dip a variety of breads into the hot chocolate.  We decided to dip donuts into the hot chocolate- that’s bread, right?!?!  Hunter loved it!

Hailey definitely enjoyed her donut and hot chocolate too.

Hailey loves when we read about the children from the country we are learning about.  She gets out some paper and takes notes about the child- she just finds it fascinating to learn how they live.

We learned that a french scientist discovered how to make inexpensive soap, which in turn meant people could afford to buy it and use it.  So, we had some fun making our own soap.

To end out the week, Hailey made some chocolate truffles.  They were super delicious!!
