Book of the week - In Flanders Fields

 Everyone knows the poem In Flanders Fields by John McCrae. This is the poem and everything you'd want to know about the poem and war.

 Every other page of the book is a detailed description or account of some of the events that happened around the time the poem was written. 

The poem is well illustrated and gives a gimps of life during the war.

Six Flags - Read to Succeed

Six Flags is doing it again! They have opened up their Read to Succeed Challenge. Your kids show that they read for 6 hours and they win tickets to Six Flags. We did this contest last year and won tickets, so I can post this confidently knowing that Canadian Homeschooling families are welcome to join.

I couldn't find an ad for it so I just shared their commercial. Enjoy!
