How a Homeschooler Changes a Lighbulb
How does a homeschooler change a lightbulb?
First, Mom checks three books on electricity out of the library, then the kids make models of light bulbs, read a biography of Thomas Edison, and do a skit based on his life.
Next, everyone takes a trip to the store where they compare types of lightbulbs, as well as prices, and figure out how much change they'll get if they buy two bulbs for $1.99 and pay with a five-dollar bill.
On the way home, a discussion develops over the history of money and also Abraham Lincoln, as his picture is on the five-dollar bill.
Finally, after building a homemade ladder out of branches dragged from the woods, the lightbulb is installed.
And there is light…which begins a Bible study on the days of Creation.
I just love this! I remember reading it a few years ago, but the longer I homeschool the more truth I see in it! LOL Thanks for the chuckle!
This is hilarious! Thanks.
I hadn’t heard this one before, but it was great!
I just love it! I think this is the beauty of homeschooling. You can just go with things and there is an educational opportunity at every single corner.
