Family Activities By jane

Our school has a family book club. Children choose a title from a select group offered by our Reading Dept. Then the child and parent reads it at home over a 2-3 week period. Families come together at school one night to discuss the book. Interesting to see the different perspectives from parents and children and the different families.
We also have had Writing night. Families bring in a special photograph from the family album. Each member writes their own piece about the photograph and then share their drafts.
We also came up with old patents for inventions from a library book. Some of the ideas | | are incredible. Children and their parents had to figure out the contraption and explain how it worked. Lots of laughs and fathers loved this one!
Math games and brain teasers are also fun to work on as a family. Hope this helps! Have fun!
