Americas & Antilles Countries Capitals Flashcards
Boy howdy! Survival mode has hit me quite a bit this semester! Between directing a homeschool community, directing a toddler, and directing a middle school student (not to mention the rest of the family), plans just don’t happen as planned around here. I’m often derailed. Not just my plans, but my thought processes in general. […]
European Countries & Capitals Flashcards
We’re studying world geography and wanted to share a little something I made for Stephen (but mainly me, ahem) to give him (or rather, me) a different method of practicing the countries and capitals of Europe. He hasn’t wanted to use Seterra or Quizlet to practice, and drawing and labeling are tough to do when you’re […]
Tin Whistle & Music Theory Notebooking Pages
This simple set of notebooking pages for the study of tin whistle and/or music theory includes staff practice sheets, copywork sheets for the note name rhyme, a finger coding sheet, and a composition sheet. These were taken from our Renaissance & Baroque Composers Fine Arts Notebooking Packet. (Also available are our Impressionists & Classical Composers […]
Latin Noun Declension File Folder Games & Cues {Printables}
Several months ago, someone asked if I had a noun declension game like our verb conjugation file folder game.

“Learning to discern the worldviews behind the literature we read or the entertainment we watch is a powerful safeguard against becoming the ‘simple person’ to which Solomon referred.* Many people absorb their worldview from the influences around them rather than learning to think critically about what is being communicated and to evaluate whether or not […]
The Making of a Gigantic Music Staff
Well, I guess we can add this to the list of things I never would have thought to do had it not been for our classical homeschool group – and those precious 4 and 5 year olds who are too cute (and quite perplexing) when being introduced to music theory. For years now our community […]
How to Draw a Crayfish & Crayfish Anatomy
The children in our homeschool group are recording their thoughts, observations, and conclusions in a science journal this semester. The science journals consist of blank copy paper stapled together with cardstock covers. For me, when drawing from a specimen, it can be difficult to know where to start. When I contemplated ways to help other […]
Scientific Method Printables: Posters, Lab Sheets, Bookmarks
Our homeschool has certainly shifted this year as we focus more on science. The boys are enjoying making observations, which leads to questions, which leads to experiments, which leads to more observations and conclusions. Because of this shift along with a request that was made by a family from our homeschool group, I created some […]
