One of the many things I have learned about my Bubby is that he is a VISUAL child. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When he was younger, I had tried Time4Learning with him and he loved it. I only used it for Math, LA, LA Extensions . </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lessons were very colorful, funny, and entertaining. He would even ask to do extra lessons!!! I loved that I had THREE grades to work with, as well. Once you pick the grade you want your child in, you are allowed to also use the grade below and grade above. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The problem I had with the lessons was that there were no worksheets to go with them. So that he couldn't practice what he learned. Especially in math. I also felt there wasn't enough explaining and it just wasn't "enough". This was all prior to his diagnoses and IQ test. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Two years later and we are back using it. He had gone from sitting next to me for every subject, to doing all of it on his own! What a change. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
His grades for LA and Math are great! (Math is his weak spot due to the Executive Function Disorder) When he does LA Extensions, History or Science, though, he is failing. That is because there are NO videos. It is reading only. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So it is time to find something more visual, hands on, for these subjects. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We will keep Time4Learning for LA and Math. They work for him and the lessons are short and he is able to process them well. He is getting 80's, 90's, and 100's on his quizzes. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am thinking possibly trying out BrainPop. We had used it before and look forward to seeing how much more they have added since and if it will be a good fit. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you have a suggestion, please share them. I would love to check out your resources. </div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There have been many many changes since starting this blog. Not all positive...not all negative either. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Co-op disbanded. The length of time and every one's dietary needs ended up being the major factors in the closing of this. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My eldest moved to Tennessee but now I am a Mimi to a handsome, chunky Lil Bean! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My middle child is graduating this school year. He has a part time job (22-25 hours/week) which means ALOT of taxi driving for this Momma until he gets his license (hopefully) in January. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My youngest was diagnosed with Autism, ADHD, Anxiety, Executive Function Disorder and just recently had an IQ test done and scored very low, borderline MR. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This Momma has been very very busy with no end in sight. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My focus is on my youngest right now. Trying to find the right curriculum fit. He hates school and I know the reason why, mostly. The curriculum I have been using is too dry.....too long.....to challenging....too boring. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So I am totally going to step out.......and change it up. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am going to use this blog to share our ADVENTURE. That is what I tell him. Momma has found a way to make school an adventure! His eyes light up...as he loves going on adventures with his Momma. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So look for some different kinds of posts as I stated above, the Co-op has been disbanded. But as I do recipes with my love, I will share them. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And keeping true to the name of this blog.....We ARE Learning As We Go!! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am always looking for ways to incorporate math into ANY!! Math is the LEAST favorite subject in my house, how about yours? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I created the <u>Thanksgiving Dinner Chart </u>to practise bar graph skills. It also creates opportunities for each kiddo to engage will friends and family, near or far, in this "research project". </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It is simple, just ask each person what their <i>favorite</i> part of Thanksgiving dinner is. As your child collects the "data", they can start filling in the chart. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As President's Day was approaching, I had my girl make some clip art for me so I could do some worksheets that included George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. With the clip art done, I was ready to begin....but a few things happened:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">#1 -had some medical issues that kept me pretty much exhausted daily for almost 2 weeks</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">#2 - When I started deciding what to do and researching, a great idea formulated that turned making a couple worksheets into making a 13 page unit study!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">While researching I decided that it would be a great idea to have the kiddos research, too. I am made this unit study to use with my 3rd grader and 10th grader. My 3rd grader may need a little more time with a few things, but there is plenty for my 10th grader to do and stay occupied. I will make the writing projects longer for him. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There are 5 sections to my unit study:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Early Years</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Survey Like George</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Before the Revolutionary War</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Revolutionary War</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Presidency</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Each section gives you a URL site to research. There are directions on each page to guide them. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is a pretty straight forward unit study with a few sections where they need to use their <u>own</u> words and write a few paragraphs. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For the rest of February, I am going to <u><i><b>give away</b></i></u> "All About George" for FREE. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">To get this fun and interactive unit study, head over to:</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">While I was working on some worksheets months ago, I decided to try my hand at making some Church Time Worksheets. Something my boys could use to keep still and "get through" church. My youngest asks me 30 times "where are we" on the "Order of Service" sheet from our bulletin. My oldest stares off into space.....alot. So, I thought if I could make something that keeps them busy AND engaged in church it would be a WIN-WIN situation for all of us. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This week at co-op we made French Fry Chicken Bacon & Ranch Bake and Crescent Churros and Chocolate . I saw the French Fry Chicken Bacon & Ranch Bake come across my Facebook wall. It looked delish and easy. We made two different versions of it one with NO garlic and NO ranch and one WITH those ingredients. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What <u><i><b>we</b></i></u> used for the main course <i>(remember this is for <u><b>TWO</b></u> entrees)</i>:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1 bag of frozen chicken breasts from Aldi stores <i>(thawed and cut into 1 inch cubes -give or take)</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2 bags of SHOESTRING french fries</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1 pound of cooked, crumbled bacon <i>(cook in non-stick frying pan and keep some of the drippings to cook the chicken )</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1 bottle of ranch dressing</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">8 oz. of shredded sharp cheese</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">8 oz. of shredded mozzarella cheese</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2 tablespoons of minced garlic</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> 2 cast iron skillets</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> cookie sheets</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> non stick frying pans</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">olive oil</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">salt and pepper to taste</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 1: Pre-heat the oven for the french fries - 425degrees. Put the 1 bag of frozen french fries onto each cookie sheet and put in the oven for 20 minutes. <i>(keep checking the fries, as one of our bags got done sooner than the other. You don't want them burnt.)</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 2: Set the stove for medium heat and in the non-stick frying pans, add in the garlic and half of the chicken cubes. In the other frying pan, just add the other half of the chicken cubes. Add your salt and pepper. Cook thoroughly.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 3: Take a paper towel and dab the olive oil on it and wipe the inside of the cast iron skillets. Make sure to get the sides as well. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 4: With the french fries done and the chicken done, it is time to put them in skillet. FIRST set the oven for 350 degrees. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">- Put the french fries in the skillets first. You want to make sure the bottom is covered with the fries. It may not take all the french fries and that is ok.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> - Now you want to add the chicken and make sure you spread the pieces around.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">- You want to pour some ranch over the chicken and fries in one skillet. The amount really depends on how much YOU like ranch. Again, make sure it is evenly spread out over the chicken and fries. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">- Add your sharp cheese and mozzarella cheeses. Sprinkle them evenly over the chicken and fries. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">- Add half of the bacon crumbles to each skillet.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The oven should be ready so put the skillets in the oven for 15 minutes. When the cheese is all melted and bubbling, it is done! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What <u><i><b>we</b></i></u> used for our dessert <i>(enough for 15 people)</i>:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">4 cans of crescent rolls </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2 cups of cinnamon sugar <i><u><b>mix</b></u></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1 stick of <b><u>melted</u></b> butter</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1 bag of milk chocolate chips</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">knife or pizza cutter</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">pastry or bbq brush</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2 cookie sheets </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 1: <u>MAKE SURE</u> that the crescent rolls are C-O-L-D. This is really important. We had ours at room temperature and it was a M-E-S-S! When the dough is at room temperature it is super hard to do what needs to be done with it! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When you take the roll of dough out...DO NO SEPARATE at the perforated edges! You will want to manipulate the dough and make them disappear so that you have one rectangle. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 2: Cut the rectangle with a knife or pizza cutter, into 4 smaller rectangles. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 3: Brush butter onto the rectangles and spread evenly. NOT ALOT or it will make the dough soft and hard to work. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 4: Sprinkle the sugar cinnamon mix on the rectangles. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 5: Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut each rectangle into equal strips. Twist the strips and put on the cookie sheets.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 6: bake for 5 minutes and check. You want them to be golden brown and not doughy. If they need more time, check them every 2 minutes until done. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 7: Put the chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl. Heat at 30 second increments, stirring well until melted.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Step 7: While hot, brush more butter on each and sprinkle with the sugar cinnamon mix.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Whether you eat them warm or not, they are so scrumptious! When you add a dollop of melted chocolate to your plate for dipping...well it just doesn't get better than that. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24.64px;">I found that using <i><u>cake mixes</u></i> make the cookies so much softer!

They also gave me a sample to "test drive" and I wanted to share my thoughts about it. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">picture from Grapevine Studies</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: small;">I started reading about the "Evolution of the Calendar" and about the Biblical Weeks and the Biblical Months and so much more!</span><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: medium; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: xx-small;">picture from the Calendar Notes</span><br /><span style="font-size: small;">We were already into the middle of January but decided that the boys would love playing "catch up". I found a blank calendar in my Microsoft Word program, edited it to include the Biblical names of the months, too.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio_77ODnPgWQ-HA2xj87gNJ5vUvvd6VtAmQH6-JWiOxk-X91Q8BEToVlChUB-EKaDvDYhVtzZ8-FWH3nx5dwJz7rkmrKsrwfo4J_oL0XmhtwdiscGfgpvcNF0JgdTJYgUXhGt5s_jEGsex/s1600/20160125_132640.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio_77ODnPgWQ-HA2xj87gNJ5vUvvd6VtAmQH6-JWiOxk-X91Q8BEToVlChUB-EKaDvDYhVtzZ8-FWH3nx5dwJz7rkmrKsrwfo4J_oL0XmhtwdiscGfgpvcNF0JgdTJYgUXhGt5s_jEGsex/s640/20160125_132640.jpg" width="360" /></a></div>
</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: small;">Then we started. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: small;">First, I had them locate the day and made sure to use the Biblical names of the month as well. Then I read to them what my Calendar Notes said. As we moved through the month, we looked up any Bible references,too. </span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: medium; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: small;">My boys are really excited about doing this calendar. They love all the little bits of information they are learning. It also brings the Bible to life for them as well. We put <u><i>our</i></u> loved one's birthdays and deaths on our calendar, so having Biblical people such as Simeon's "birthday and death day" added in this calendar made them more "<u>real</u>". </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: small;">This <a href="http://grapevinestudies.com/product/2016-calendar/?ap_id=w8tn4him">2016 Biblical Calendar</a> is very engaging. We have our Bibles out and are <u>all</u> learning together - that is <u><i>always</i></u> an awesome thing. Not only is this great for homeschooling, but would be perfect for an ongoing Sunday School project, too. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">I <i>did</i> make my own calendar, but I <u>WILL</u> be getting the Wall Calendar from <a href="http://grapevinestudies.com/?ap_id=w8tn4him">Grapevine Studies</a>.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">What I love the most about these type of sheets (I have three now - "<a href="http://learningaswegohomeschooling.blogspot.com/2016/01/i-love-winter-5-senses-creative-writing.html">I love Winter</a>", "<a href="http://learningaswegohomeschooling.blogspot.com/2014/11/i-love-fall.html">I love Fall</a>") is:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">3. There is no "right or wrong". Because it is using their own 5 senses, it is their own ideas. What they feel, see, hear, taste, and smell can't be "wrong". </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We were amazed at how the Worcester sauce seemed to elongate the candy cane. The Italian dressing did nothing! The pickle juice won hands down but did NOT dissolve the candy cane as much as the hot water did. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> <span style="font-size: x-small;">*Interesting side note - We left these out so Dad could see them when he got home. Mr. Man noticed that the candy cane that was put into the Italian dressing <i>hollowed</i> the candy cane out! He set it aside to take a picture of it, but Dad accidentally threw it out.*</span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When Mr. Man was in 6th grade, I was looking for something to spark his excitement during Bible class. We had experimented with a few different kinds over the past 6 years of school and nothing seemed to really keep his attention.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I think part of the issue is that he is partially a "hands on" kind of learner. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In my searching, I came across <a href="https://grapevinestudies.com/">Grapevine Studies</a> and fell in love with their concept:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Each lesson gave me the Bible verses we were to read, what we were to discuss and then what the kiddos where going to draw and how to draw it. It was so easy for me!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Not only did the spark of excitement come back for our Bible class, but I soon found them drawing stick figure drawings in their spare time! For this momma it was a win-win situation! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is what I <u>liked</u> about Grapevine Studies:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><u>Different approach to teaching Bible class </u> - It is definitely NOT your average Bible class. Colorful, hands-on, and super fun.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><u>Follows Biblical doctrine</u> - It is very important that a Bible curriculum agree with MY biblical beliefs and doctrine. This did 100%.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><u>Ease of ordering</u> - I am <i><u>super</u></i> impatient. I LOVE a curriculum that let's me get what I want NOW! Grapevine Studies does that. You can get the workbook sent to you or you can get it via ebook! YES!! In my hand...or printer immediately!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><u>So many levels for all ages</u> - I got the <a href="https://grapevinestudies.com/product-category/studies-by-level/traceables-age-3-to-5/">traceables</a> for my youngest. It really helped him to be able to draw like mommy could. My older son, was able to do it on his own and <i><u><b>all</b></u></i> of doing the same lesson.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><u>Not just for homeschooling</u> - We loved using this so much that I brought it to our co-op. Because of the <a href="https://grapevinestudies.com/product-category/studies-by-level/multi-level-ages-7-and-up/">multi-level</a> books, I was able to teach many different ages. The younger ones I could use the traceable ones. This would also be great for Sunday School class, too.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What I <u>didn't like</u> about Grapevine Studies:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I can <i><u><b>honestly</b></u></i> tell you - <u>affiliate</u> <u>or</u> <u>not</u> - there was nothing that I didn't like. My oldest just "out grew" it after a few years. (exact words of Mr. Man who is never happy for long with any curriculum.)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Not only do I feel this is a GREAT Bible curriculum, it also inspires a desire to draw as well. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And <i>that</i> is just - <u>THIS Homeschooling Momma's Review</u></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><u>Step 8</u> : Heat up a non-stick frying pan on medium high. You are going to want to SEAR the outside of the chops. Set your oven to 350 degrees and have a baking dish sprayed and ready. In the the frying pan add 2 tablespoons of oil and half of the butter. Put the garlic clove in. I could NOT find my clove of garlic, so I had to use minced garlic....I do NOT suggest that. They burnt! The clove is one piece to flavor the butter/oil mixture. If it burns, you can take it out and replace it. Not that easy with <i>many</i> pieces of garlic! Add more butter as needed.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now place a few chops in the pan trying to get the sides to lay as flat as possible to get a good sear.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You want to tilt the pan so you can use a big spoon and ladle the hot butter/oil mixture over the side of the chop. This helps cook the other side while the one side is searing. Do this for about a minute, checking the other side to see if it is seared enough. **REMEMBER** You are not FULLY cooking the chop at this point. Just searing the sides for the chops to be baked, keeping all the juices inside.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Stuffing a pork chop is very easy. If <u>I</u> can do it, <u>you</u> can do it! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You will need</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> thick pork chops about 1 1/2 inches thick or more.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A fillet knife or small sharp knife </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">cutting board</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">wooden skewers or tooth picks. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Let's make a pocket in the chops! Get a fillet knife or a small sharp knife. Put the pork chop on the cutting board and hold like so: </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="373" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8_1pYdfgvT0VKqOk2LUjYZNaRoeB6T-6m0foL8if4ei1y_gdGDz4Tl1yJZ9-hdW_iuOTqoovergqlq-hUK1hj8KObMtYAOVGvgXl6BFWMuff3CEs6ppDvQHuQ2mQ5S_RHbNVaFtgxoTsB/s400/20151205_184332.jpg" width="400" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now use your knife to puncture the middle of the thickness. You want to cut a slit and continuing to hold the pork chop, increase the slit </span><i style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">almost</i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> the length of the chop. After you make the slit, use the knife to go deeper into the chop, but not </span><i style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">so</i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> deep that you cut through the other side. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My first cut. You can see that I </span><u style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">didn't</u><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> cut the </span><i style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">entire</i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> length of the chop. It, also, isn't deep enough.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUpXVcmEuk2mUpvhPpMfqOQ6Mx9TfvSqUljYpeett4hxgwc4XcIRK4QSaNJV1Yi8VjCjEq79IwZShCwY1ZcL3VHfhn4-l_nAl2fUaNTU9PtIyRWKfsiSTqtMXVFr6kJwTl8sCVaC3PUr5_/s640/20151205_184739.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Let's try again...it </span><i style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><u>is</u></i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> getting deeper. It needs to be a bit more deeper. With your hand on the top of the chop, you should be able to feel where the knife is and how much "space" you have before you cut through to the other side. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlyoxbwKxyzprqv33_dawvyZZxIggGa-d_0nUhtsAVkxA6rYcuA-LgEN12UZs1P8zPBKnOAF-PBmdO9AKvfzM3Kcj0rid2NrEeNqqhXGyToptinqrMwr7brrkuZUQwru73JQMx1kfPm1so/s640/20151205_184731.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now it is just right! Nice and deep.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Fill it </span><i style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">almost</i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> to the edge. You don't want to over stuff as your "stuffing" will end up coming out! </span></div>

</div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What you need:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
acrylic paint any colors. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;"> (I did a rainbow one. You can do a green one with red pom poms for "berries". Or you can do a silver, white, and light blue on for a winter theme.)</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
paper towel rolls or toilet paper rolls. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>(I used paper towel rolls 5-6 of them. You need <u>5</u> sections to make each "cluster". I had <u>8</u> "clusters" for the base wreath. I should have used maybe two more.)</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
glue gun</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
buttons or pom poms or whatever YOU would like to decorate your wreath<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>(I used buttons from the Dollar Tree)</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<u>Step 1</u>: flatten each tube. cut the tubes into 1/2 -3/4 inch wide sections. Remember you will need 5 sections per "cluster" -8-10 "clusters" per wreath<br />
<br />
