India Day

Yet another awesome day with our TEACH homeschool group. The ladies planned a day to learn all about the coutry of India!

We were especially helped along by several families from the church: two who have visited and are planning to return there as missionaries, and another family who met in India- he is a native of India and she was a short-term missionary there. A HUGE extra bonus for we Spanglers? Our dear friends Karen & TJ live in India as missionaries but are in the States on furlough right now, and they just happened to be visiting the Dallas area during this time, so Karen and their daughter, Chaya, came to join us too. Addie was especially happy to be with Chaya, who was a good friend back in California.

Heather Worsley, planner extroidenaire, shows Karen some of the plans for the day.




Hather taught the kids all about the basics of the country, including neat maps and posters. Then another Heather- Heather Zeller, read the kids a great book about India and showed them some neat toys and things.



Addie and the other girls make bangle bracelets (the boys made tiger masks).















Natalie Kotak teaches the kids some words in Hindi.











Karen teaches the kids a children's song about a fish.
