Happy Full Moon And Friday The 13TH

        I literally found this online late last night and tossed it together this morning! A little more time I could have really done it up but I think it turned out pretty peachy! The printables are from Party Pinching and so cute!!!! They are also free so even better! Happy Friday the 13th and it is also a FULL MOON!!!! Beyond Harry Potter this house does all things scary as well. Halloween is our time!

First Day Magic!

       Today was technically the first day of Magic School. Like every other first day we just went over what she will be doing, what we are learning about and making chocolate frogs! 

     I just love how her little owl post box turned out! It's a good thing I also adore owls! She got her first Alchemy experiments, her new quill set and Charm Post!

     Normally I would have had everything wrapped in brown paper with some twine but I have been working nights and I am so forgetful and tired lately! Also good is that my little witch understands that owls get tired too!

     She isn't quite sure what to do with her Charm Post yet but I am sure once we add some stuff she will see how magical her letters are!

First Week In The New Year

       Fun day with magic! First up we had to take some "back to magic school" pictures!

        I know I am totally partial when I say I think my little witch is the cutest little witch of them all! I love her new school shirt!

Week 1 Magic School

     Between a hurricane, sick kids and outside commitments Magic School has been hit or miss. We never even technically finished our week one from when we started it! So, this was the week we finished it and did the book work. This was not a terribly fun week apparently according to my little Skyler witch! 

  This is her journal of all she will do for Magic School. She likes having everything all together in one spot so this is what I came up with! She will read her books and watch a movie if I can find something fitting. 

She also still enjoys using her quill pens.  

Week 1 2017 2018 Magic Fun

     To kick off our first back to Magic School day, we watched the best movie ever, Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them! Skyler absolutely adored it she said it was even cooler than Harry Potter movies! It must have something to do with the fact that it was all about the animals of course! Today was all about the Magical Creatures as far as Skyler was concerned. 

     For Cauldron Cooking she brewed up a cool pixie punch smoothie! (blueberry smoothie for ya muggles).

     She drank from her super cool hand painted Herbology glasses too! 

     

Our First Week Back!

      Well we had our Magic School Day for the week and it was a win all the way around! We read, we learned, we played and had a blast! This week she decided to concentrate on frogs for Magical Creatures. That may have something to do with our field trip a few weeks ago. I got some notebooking pages off line to make her a journal of sorts so she could keep track of all the things she does instead of boring work sheets! I also added some dyslexic games from The Thinking Tree since she loves them so much! When we are all done I will have it all bound together for a keep sake. For her cover she chose to color a picture of the Gryffindor crest! 
   

     

     Of course the cats had to get in on the action! I suppose they could be magical creatures too. 

Week 1 of Magic Scool!!!

Assignment and potion ingredients are ready to go as soon as school starts!! I have been on a real kick about having things all ready to go lately. It really makes the days go much smoother.

My Magic School morning board! From the left we have a Wizards Words pocket. Every week they get 5 vocabulary words from the Harry Potter Vocabulary Book. They must write the word, part of speech and definition.  When everyone is done we go around and use the words in a sentence. The bottom pocket is our Daily Profit newspaper. We have to keep up with the Wizarding World. In the middle we have a calendar. At the top right is the Owl Scouts News pocket, it is empty as scouts has yet to start. At the bpottom they have Goblin Job sticks. This is how they earn their Gringotts coins to spend at Diagon Alley which is going to be open this month on the 28th.

Their little pens are so cute! Skyler was quite adamant about using her quill to write with for all her Wizard Work.

Book work first!! They did Muggle Studies, Wizardology, Aritnmancy, Potion book work, and of course Hogwarts A History.

Now to make some Dragon Drool!!!! Damian did not like the cloud of white from the dragon ash in his face.

Add the Phoenix Tears which Fox enjoyed doing very much.

Stir well. She is using a stick that Damian found in the yard that all the kids call moms magic wand lol.

Now feel the Dragons Drool! Dragons Drool shows the two states of matter solid and liquid. Supposedly if you get a minor burn the Dragons Drool paste will take the sting out. I think they had fun. Damian is not really grasping the whole money thing. He doesn't understand why everyone is not the same. It will take a bit but I am sure once he catches on he will do fine with it.

All in all it was an OK day. Had some complaints of the writing and math part but oh well, gotta do whatcha gotta do!!
