Beaches: Timaru and Kaikoura

June 17, 2016 by NZ Filbruns Leave a Comment

It’s fun to look through Esther’s memory card every so often. She gets some good pictures, and happily lets me use them. I often either forget I have a camera, or actually don’t have it along, so I’m glad when she takes pictures to fill in the gaps. Here are a few more pictures from the day we walked to the lighthouse near Timaru.

Little Miss was watching someone climbing the outside of the lighthouse. She held on to that apple all the way out there and most of the way back!07-DSCF1862

      We use CLE for Math and Language Arts. I use the Barton Reading and Spelling System as well, because we have some severe dyslexia to deal with. For Science we use Apologia, and history and geography is partly Sonlight curriculum and partly the books I’ve found to go with it.
