Ireland

Our Next stop was Ireland and then Scotland. Each week when we study a place the kids pick some sort of project here, Ethan is working on his North and South Ireland report 

Aaron decided to do a cartoon strip about the people there, telling the story of the Potato Famine.

At the end of each week we have a celebration from the area we are learning about, this week we had a traditional Irish- Jig :) We made Irish Soda Bread.

Had it with some awesome Irish Beef Stew, and some super yummy cheese.

We listen to the boys give there reports, danced the river dance, then listened to Irish music and played hot potato.

it was super fun.

after it all we had a Irish sweet apple cake it was sooooo good! Will ended up wanting it again for his birthday the very next week, so we had it again then too.

We also read lots of books, did some geography and watched a little video about Ireland.
