June 2024
Spring into Learning!
How are we in June—already? This is our transition from spring into summer and we’re dedicated this month to Learning from Things! YES, we’re going to make it FUN—look for a BINGO board you can print and stick to your fridge, to remind and reward your efforts to access and be grateful for abundant learning resources at our fingertips—I hope during this less structured season that YOU can create moments of relaxed learning and creating!

Hue & Me
Since we’re halfway through our year, let’s revisit Peach Fuzz, the Pantone 2024 Color of the Year.
Have you noticed it popping up in your corner of the world? Experts agree that pairing this peachy goodness with a pop of a fully saturated friend is a very good idea—thus the vibrant red. My mind goes to strawberries with these colors and the proportion looks like a slice of pie, hence the title Strawberry Pie. What name would you give our June Hue & Me? How will you let this combination inspire you this month?
🍓 Look for these two colors in other images on this page.

Do you have a Raggedy Ann story?
What dolls, toys, book or blocks do you remember playing with as a child? Are any of these playthings still available today? What would be the most iconic toy in your past? How could you learn more about its creation and history?
Love Your Library Video
This month we are reviewing the Photo Freedom topic: Workflow (part 1) and I’m choosing to focus on creating a primary digital hub or home for gathering images together. I have two assignments for you!

Life is FULL of sweet opportunities to learn new things. Have YOU ever made strawberry pie, jam, cobbler, crisp, custard or cream?
Let our BINGO board inspire you to be curious and read, listen to, make, bake, build or try something that will enhance what you know and can do! Confidence comes when you decide it’s ok to be a beginner, to ask questions and to make mistakes.
I’m so glad you’re here learning with me!
❤️ Members of Live Your Story now have EASY access to Photo Freedom.
When you login, look for it on the list of options!
Click the image to download, print and post our June BINGO board. After you complete a Learning from Things opportunity, note in the open section of each square exactly what you did—see if you can get a one row or perhaps more—maybe even a blackout! Of course the real reward will be new information and ideas!
