Backing up a month! Last month our geography co-op studied Israel. After gather quite a large quantity of books from the library, the boys seem to both be interested in the subject of kibbutzim. It was interesting. The subject led us to other topics, I didn't think we would be touching on just yet: Socialism, Communism, Zionism (lots of ism-s), community and the importance of agriculture. So, we did a project together, it seemed fitting, and put together a diorama.

Pass along my congrats to the boys on a job well done. I'm listening to a book on CD right now about some extreme Zionists. Don't you love those unexpected conversations that lead to "real" learning?
