Magic School Fun Week 7

     
     Well we had an amazing week at Magic School! Someone also got her uniform!!!!!!!!!! I cannot get over how terribly adorable she looks in it either. She had to have grandpa tie her tie since mom is no good with that! She is very excited for our Harry Potter field trip in two weeks in St. Augustine. I am going to go picture CRAZY!!

     So on to our school work. This week was book week. We are going back and forth so she gets to do everything. So one week it is projects and movies the next it is her text books. I also thought I would include some info on how I made her textbooks. Give every one some ideas for magic fun!

Magic Fun Week 6

   This week she finished up watching Animal Planets documentaries about mermaids for Magical Creatures. I found this cool little mermaid soap making kit at Five Below for her to make as a project this week! So she watched the movie, made soap and made a page about the movie for her journal she is putting together! 

     "Hooray"!!!! She also found her class shirt!

Magic In Our Classroom

     
     The last time we did Magic School I practically created an entire house of magic! This time I have tried to tone it down a bit! Yes, it is hard because I am always finding cool ideas or coming up with my own LOL I am also magical at finding ways to re purpose stuff and adding to my collections when it comes to themes! So I have just put stuff here and there and where ever it fits or looks cute! This is Skylers magic shelf. It has her books, more books and a lot of other odds and ends depending on what she is studying. Right now it is mostly Herbology and Magical Creatures!

     I made that little mandrake doll years ago and she is still a favorite! I found the cool blue pixie on ebay for ten bucks and he had to come to my house of course! He is pretty calm compared to the other pixies but I have been envisioning some elf on the shelf type antics for him lately! Maybe the precarious pixie?? 

Week 5 of Magic Fun!

      Week five was magical as usual!! This week we added some grammar and had fun watching a mermaid documentary! Animal Planet has two amazing mermaid documentaries that are just that amazing! The first is called The Body Found and the other is New Evidence. I love how they take on a whole new world in these "documentaries"! This week we watched the first. 

   She is also sporting her new pretty Gryffindor head band. She has a complete uniform that I have yet to take actual pics in. I need to find her the perfect shoes of course first!

Cauldron Cooking!

     We had such a full week that we didn't actually get to Magic School but we still did Cauldron Cooking and made Yorkshire pudding! We have never made it before or had it for that matter. Ours did not come out like the stuff we had seen online either. 

      It was still fun though and it tasted good. I wish I had the beef drippings I am sure that would have added to the flavor even more!

Our Week 4 of Magic!

      It was fairy week at our Magic Home School! We read about fairies, made a fairy craft and a fairy garden! She had a special fairy book to read so she really concentrated on that this week. 

I also snagged a cool fairy coloring book for like two bucks and she was pretty happy with that!

Week 3 of Magic Fun!!!!

     This week in Herbology Skyler received a baby Ziniber (ginger) to plant from Professor Sprout! This is the Mandrakes cousin. Apparently it screams as well! I use many ideas from the Hogwarts Yahoo Groups!
