joy in the Mornings

Saturday is typically not considered a school day, unless you homeschool. If you homeschool, then everyday is a school day in one form or fashion.

Today I took the kids to Hunting and Fishing Days - an annual event - at a local community college.

We got to sit in on a very interesting program about birds of prey. They got to learn more about owls and hawks, and find out about the American Kestrel and the Turkey Vulture.  Then we saw a demonstration of catfish “noodling” or as we call it here in Southern Illinois, catfish “hogging.” Hogging/noodling is a method of catching fish with your hands.

So these weren’t your typical school lessons and the kids had no idea they were doing schoolwork!

I love homeschooling!
