Summer School Africa

We finished our Africa projects.  We finished working on the Deserts, and Jungle activities.  Our sand paintings are beautiful.  What a fun time we had making a big mess with colored sugar and salt.  The kids loved learning about the trees that bleed poison, how some tribes fish using poisoned laced tree bark, and eagles that eat monkeys (take them in flight from the trees).  I know they loved the desert spider that cooks his food before eating it, and the one that turns itself into a wheel to escape from the wasp.  We had a great time.
