THIS is what we're learning?

So I am in the middle of giving John a spelling test.
I give him the word "Petunia" and he says "That sounds like a name for the second Continent."
I say "What was the first Continent? Patagonia?"
He says "No, that was Pangea."
Then Paul pops into the room and says "Patagonia means 'Men with big feet!' "
Which he learned somewhere while John was studying the Explorers and filed away in that sponge of his.
I learn something old everyday.
I LOVE HOMESCHOOLING!!!
We'll finish our planets today and I'll post pictures tonight!
