A Pair of Red Clogs

This week for Five In a Row we did the book A Pair of Red Clogs by Masako Matsuno. Mako (the little girl in the book) receives a new pair of shoes and learns the importance of honesty. Which turned out to be great for us because the boys are learning about lying and telling the truth.

For math we got out different types of shoes and put them in pairs and counted them. We also put them from biggest to smallest.



Nathan and Micah enjoyed counting how many blue pairs, brown pairs, black pairs, and so on.


Tim did a great job on teaching them the different types of shapes a shoe can have.

We learned about the Japanese culture and what their flag looks like. It was fun looking up where Japan was on the map.



We had a wonderful week learning together as a family.
