Money money money

To start our new yr off I asked the boys what they wanted to study for the remainder of the yr. Colin wanted to study, drum roll please, money big surprise there. Conner wants to learn all about golf. The other things they mentioned are
Money
Golf
4-h(they want to participate)
manners,
Penguins
Cooking

Florida
Farm life
I have gathered some material for the money and penguins so we will be doing those first. Im sort of excited about the money. The mint has lesson plans for the state quarters that we can use to do a "geography of america by coins" unit/lapbook. There are all sorts of interesting things I found here is some links.
