OLD HOMESCHOOLERS NEVER DIE . . . THEY JUST WRITE CURRICULUM


"Let my teaching fall like rain and my words descend like dew,
like showers on new grass,
like abundant rain on tender plants."

Deuteronomy 32:2

Courses of Study

To view the Course of Study for each grade level, you can click on the "Course of Study" label
or "Search This Blog" for the specific grade level you wish to see.
To date, I have courses of study completed for kindergarten through fourth grades.

Newsletter Articles

In 2013 the Lord started me producing a newsletter for the homeschool group we are a part of. Every other month I write an article on a topic the Lord has put on my heart. I've decided to add these articles to this blog. I hope you will find encouragement through some of my ramblings. You can click on the label "Newsletter" to find the articles.

Community

I made a great discovery of a series of DVDs about "My Community". The series is produced by Stone House Publications/Schlessinger Media. It is a series of ten DVDs for pre-kindergarten through second grade. The titles are:
  • What is a Community?
  • Transportation
  • School
  • Post Office
  • Police Station
  • Local Government
  • Local Businesses
  • Library
  • Hospital
  • Fire Station
We have watched Community, Post Office, Police Station, and Library and are really enjoying them. From the Community DVD I picked out the explanation of Urban, Suburban, and Rural to expand upon. We found pictures and wrote the appropriate title on them.



From the Library DVD I picked the two kinds of books in the library: Fiction and Nonfiction to expand upon. K. wrote the word and I wrote the definition. I had her go find three books that went in each group and I wrote the book's titles on the page.
