School Journal - Goodnight Moon

We rowed Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown this week. Such a sweet book that the one we got when E was little was completely worn and we had to get another. Betty has enjoyed her copy as well and we had some fun recreating our own version of the Great Green Room.


I used two green manilla folders for the walls and cut windows out of them. I found some clipart for the things we didn't have and gathered some various toys and animals from Betty's toy stash. Then we put it all together so that she could play as we read along. She had a good time with our recreation. 

We did some lapbook pieces from Homeschool Share to go along with the book.

We also continued with our Letter of the Week from Confessions of a Homeschooler. This week's letter Y sorta tied in with our book since there are kittens on the floor of the room playing with yarn and the old lady is knitting.

We also did some of the activities in the links provided below. There are so many on Goodnight Moon. Happy schooling!
