Cute joke...



How does a homeschooler change a light bulb?



First, mom checks three books on electricity out of the library, then the kids make models of light bulbs, read a biography of Thomas Edison and do a skit based on his life.


Next, everyone studies the history of lighting methods, wrapping up with dipping their own candles.


Next, everyone takes a trip to the store where they compare types of light bulbs as well as prices and figure out how much change they'll get if they buy two bulbs for $1.99 and pay with a five dollar bill.


On the way home, a discussion develops over the history of money and also Abraham Lincoln, as his picture is on the five dollar bill.


Finally, after building a homemade ladder out of branches dragged from the woods, the light bulb is installed.


And there is light.
