King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table

January 9th, 2008

We have been reading  Our Island Story  and Jackson loves it.  So far in year one of AO this and Trial and Triumph are his favorite books.  He runs to the couch when I say we are going to read some out of one of these two books.

Today King Arthur created the round table.  While reading the story the knights got into a huge fight at a great feast because they couldn’t decide who was to sit at the head of the table. ( The highest place of honor.)  While narrating Jackson said “The knights  had a  huge food fight because the couldn’t talk kindly to each other and figure it out.” He was kind of laughing as he said it, almost as if it seemed so absurd that grown men could fall to such silliness. 

I giggled to myself.  I am having a blast today with my kiddies. We are off to do some nature study!  Enjoy the great outdoors today!
