Secrets for Successful Leaf Composting & Loving Your Child
30
Nov

When in doubt, go back to the basics! Soil that is used has its nutrients depleted from it. It needs new nutrients put back into the soil through compost. Similarly, children who live in a broken world need constant infusions of spiritual nutrition. That nutrition, like compost, needs to be laid on top of the […]

Adventure Days Co-Op Integrates Nature into Weekly School Rhythm
16
Nov

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Xb27D1Ti1w&ab_channel=HighestEducation Wholesome education includes regular time in nature, bonding with God’s creation. It is easy to spend time indoors, in a gym, or in play areas with dominantly human-made constructions. All these spaces are perfectly okay–unless they replace the value of recreation and time in nature. “Nature and revelation alike testify of God’s love…All who are […]

Emotional Intelligence Learning Begins
07
Nov

With some families out from being sick or other needs, a small group began studies in emotional intelligence for the co-op class. Such an important topic! For Adventure Days, we started Geo Caching at the Vancouver waterfront. Such great fun. And we got our exercise in fresh air!

This last Wednesday our time was spent memorizing scripture and talking about service! We also implemented our service ideas and will hopefully bring a smile to our neighbors.

Pioneer Day 2022

Early American History Re-Enactments Help Us Value Simplicity and Courage Cooking over an open flame helps us be more confident in our ability to take care of our own bodies. Mindful eating is about awareness. When you eat mindfully, you slow down, pay attention to the food you’re eating, and savor every bite. Susan Albers […]

Ideal Days Don’t Have to be Rare
15
Sep

While we can’t control the weather (this week’s late summer mid-70’s temperature was perfect), we can be intentional in defining an ideal learning experience. Previous Next Our two co-op classes are just enough to get information into our young learners AND into our parent’s minds as well. Bible and Personal Leadership, and Anatomy and Physiology, […]

The 2022-2023 school year comes with a big UPGRADE! Now with Adventure Days recreation comes a rhythm of classes and service. We gather at 10am, begin with Bible and Personal Leadership class, then a specialty class. The first specialty unit is Anatomy and Physiology. At noon we break for lunch, then flow right into service. […]

Track & Beach Day!
25
May

Instead of Track & Field day, it was Track & Beach day. Beach play was the first activity. Then dune jumps, the sprint run, and finally the long jump. Of course, we didn’t track of all the other activities, like a visit to the beach neighbor who caught an 18lb salmon! The competition at Track […]

Oregon Humane Society–10 Interesting Facts
19
May

Our day at the Oregon Human Society (OHS) was very interesting! First of all, it was surprising to see the grandeur of the animal shelter. In fact, “animal shelter” is by no means a fitting description. A university extension campus, (OHS is partnered with Oregon State University), is more apropos!  Here are 10 surprising facts […]

Lead Me to Still Waters
11
May

Peaceful Waters in Battle Ground? It was ironic that the Adventure Days group experienced peaceful waters at Battle Ground Lake State Park. There was not battle–at least not that could be seen. Battles were taking place in people’s minds, however. Each adult (and most kids) at the lake probably had something they worried about. Being […]
