Our life in books



This is our eigth year of homeschooling and I finally got around to blogging about our adventures a few years ago.
I love the path that God has us on.
We get to enjoy the lightbulb moments in educating our children and have quite a few of them ourselves.

We are starting Exploration to 1850's this school year, 2012-2013 using My Father's World curriculum.
Rome to the Reformation,
Exploration to the 1850's and NOW.........

Below is the week by week of lessons for this year if you'd like to start at the beginning.
There is also a handy LABELS area that you can peek through to find a specific lesson.

Week 17 - Senet Game

 Games make getting back to work after the holidays much more palatable.
Ev could have played this over and over as with most board games.
Senet is an ancient game the Egyptians played using throwing sticks, a board and tokens. The original rules have been lost but experts have made guesses as to how it was played ( I personally think they just applied the rules of modern-day SORRY and guessed at the meaning of the hieroglyph spaces). We made two versions so everyone could play at the same time.


 Oh yeah- AND he won, of course.
