Written in stone


Once upon a time in a fun, family homeschool, there was an exciting lesson in writing. Which just happened to also turn into art. (As lessons often did in this family.)
This family also learned some grammar, searching for the nouns, adjectives, the sentence subjects and the verbs. It continued with writing proper sentences, and ended with poetry.
This valuable language quest was begun with simply cutting random words from old hand-me-down magazines and gluing them to smooth river stones.
MORAL OF THIS FAIRYTALE<" mix a little art in all you do, "it will overflow into all the other areas of your life and make them more beautiful.
