Tomorrow is the first day of Autumn so I thought I would share some websites that I have found . They have some great activities. If you enjoy these sites then tell your friends to come by and chek out the list. Tomorrow I will put up the Mr. Linky for the 2009 Autumn Poetry Party. I encourage everyone to write a poem and join the party. You can even use it as a writing assignment for your kids.This year we will be giving away some neat little Autumn themed prizes at the end of this years Poetry party. I will be working on the prize list throughout the week and will have it posted by next Monday. Enjoy the sites and God Bless!

This weeks website is full of great things to print. It is especially wonderful for someone with kids who are learning to read. Check it out and let me know what you think (that is a pitiful beg for a comment) Carl's Corner
Also in more news. I went back to the doctor today because I had no relief for my ear and I still can't hear well from it. She gave me another round of antibiotics (stronger) and some steroids which are supposed to help the fluid drain off (yeah). If there are no changes by Thursday then its off to see a specialist. So keep praying about that if you don't mind and keep my Momma, Daddy and my Brother in your prayers PLEASE!

Websites

I found this week's site while searching for places to upload my videos of our crab. You can only upload a max video size of 100mb (that is why I had to post my longer video at youtube) but it seems like an excellent source for homeschoolers. Be sure to check it out and have a great week. Blessings! ~ Nikki
Ok , I'm a little late posting the WOTW this week but I will explain why in another post. This week's website is a great resource for those who like to create their own lapbook or notebook pages. They have some awesome clipart for you to use. Check it out and let me know if you like it. Blessings! ~ Nikki

Ok , today is catch up day (and me with no fries). Ok sorry that was a bad joke but I need a laugh wherever I can get it. Here are the Websites of the Week for the last two weeks.
WP Clipart : Public Domain clipart to use for your projects. I love it! They have tons of stuff.
Teachers Printables : They have some great free stuff. Lapbookers and notebookers be sure to check out the research/organization page for some great flipbooks and mini books. The research packs are pretty neat too.
What a day ! We woke up to snow showers and cold temps. Right now we have several inches on the ground and it is beautiful. Toodles took us riding around earlier today before the roads got bad . This is the big wet sloppy snow that covers everything like sugar. Lovely! It is supposed to snow throughout tonight and tomorrow. It has snowed constantly all day. If it does this tomorrow we will have some fresh snow cream. Yeah! A big thanks to everyone who has left such great comments on my blog this week, I do appreciate it and I will get around to commenting back. I promise! Well here is the link for this weeks featured website. I have found some great stuff here. It is one of those great websites where you could spend hours. (If it wasnt for your hubby and kids yelling about needing the computer! I mean really, what could they possibly have to do that is more important than us feeding our "homeschool printables addiction"? We have to notebook right? I mean , what's homeschool without notebooking!?!) Ahem! Anyway , Lesson Snips has some awesome stuff so be sure to check it out. Comment and let me know if you like this website. Blessings everyone and be much in prayer for all the changes our nation will see starting tomorrow. ~ Nikki
