Coal Samples - I plan on reading The Rag Coat to Josh soon so I went looking for samples of coal to show him. This web site, http://www.teachcoal.org/teacherstore/index.html, shows samples of coal and posters that cost very little. When I went to order, they said the Teachers Pack, which includes everything I wanted and more, is actually free! They said it will take about 2 weeks to get it in the mail.

Books we like that are not on any book lists I’ve seen

T-Rex at Swan Lake
By Lisa Carrier & Lenore Hart
It brings kids to the opera/ballet and back stage a little.






Does A Yak Get A Haircut?
By Fred Ehrlich, M.D.
It teaches about hair growth on humans and some animals.






Jack In Luck

Jack makes one bad trade after another but is grateful to God for what he gets. He does buy a half of a glass of beer but I just read that as “root beer”.






How Many Veggies?
Archibald’s Opposites
Time For Tom
Bob and Larry’s ABC’s
Junior’s Colors

These Veggie Tales board books are fun rhymes that teach basics to toddlers.
