This past week, while I was busy doing the final touches on the auction projects I gave Coleman the opportunity to lead himself through several school days. He spent many hours reading - his favorite subject. He also decided to make some quill pens with our chickens feathers (selected from the ones lying about the yard). Inspired by the book he's reading, Eregon, he also began illustrating dragons. It was a creative week for both of us. He also made a beautiful copper pendant while practicing his metalsmithing skills - my favorite subject to teach. In his Wednesday nature class he began working on making a knife with carbon using tradition blacksmithing methods.
