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.

Kindergarten, Writing, Week 33

The practice sentence this week was: I had a fluffy blanket.

Small Muscle Development:
  • Game: Jars
    • I collected 20 clean, small containers with screw-top lids (10 were Carmex, and 10 were Ensure -- grandparents are great resources!)
    • I divided the containers between K. and me (we each had 5 Carmex and 5 Ensure) and put our tub of pinto beans between us.
  • How to Play:
    • Say "Go"; players unscrew one lid, put a bean in the container and screw the lid back on.
    • Then the player goes on to another container.
    • The goal is to be the first one to put a bean in each container.
    • Once there is a bean in each container, play again by emptying each container.
    • Make sure your child wins at least once.
