Map and Dough Map

We met at Lisa's for mapping and the salt dough maps. It was, for some of us, the blind leading the blind. Some of us had it together and that is great! If one of us has it together we are good to go. I am definitely getting the hang of this. One day at a time of course. My girls LOVE mapping! Sarah keeps checking her dough map to see if it's drying. It really takes a long time to dry in humid weather.
Good news! I cleaned a lot of the basement last night and today and I think there is hope for next week. Sarah made a paddle doll today. It turned out very cute. Maybe as we have time, we can get together other times to do other activities as well. Especially for those who find doing art projects a challenge. Anyway, I guess we will learn as we go.
The girls were doing their maps today and I have a question. Maybe for Lisa - There are printed labels for "Egyptian Resource Map". Ummm... Can someone tell me where to find the directions for that? I'm sorry I'm so dumb here. I really need my hand held. I am NOT administrative in nature AT ALL! Reading manuals is very challenging for me. Right Laura?
Lisa, can you send me a few pix from yesterday so I can try to post them here for all to see? Thanks!
More later!

Linda,
Regarding the mapping label; I have the same question to. I have no clue what to do w/ them so we tucked them away. lol
I started to peek into week 2 yesterday and it seems to be a bit meatier for the D level.
I think Eric was wishing for more of a challenge. I plan on having him do some of the Philosophy stuff for week 2 in R level. I thought doing the play would be fun.
Overall I think we are getting through okay.
Love,
Laura
