Can you help me find my blue folder?
| Posted: 3:45 PM, Mar. 7, 2007 |
I'm asking because no one in my family can find it. I'm afraid that its been thrown away. It wouldn't be a big deal except it contained all of my notes for American History right now.
I had spent a decent amount of time going through every Liberty's Kids episode, our Dover Coloring Book, Samantha's workbook, and our A Beka text book on American History and cross-referenced the topics. I used Liberty's Kids as my chronology because it was the most complete and I tied everything to that. None of that had been entered into Homeschool Tracker yet. I even had print outs of the events that I wanted to include on our timeline.
I'm feeling very lost studying History this week without it. As a matter of fact, I don't really feel like we've studied anything about history as a result. We have actually watched 3 Liberty's Kids episodes and colored 2 pictures in our Dover Coloring book, but we havne't added any timeline entries and we haven't read our textbook. The kids are reading their Sonlight readers for the time as well as about 15 other books that I picked up, but I'm still feeling very out of sorts without this part of my plan. |

Oh dear, I wish I could help you! How horrible it is to lose something that you worked so hard on. I will pray that you find it soon! I happened upon your blog from HSB's front page - hope you don't mind me peeking in. If I could help you, I'd look around more for your folder, but I haven't seen it here. hee hee Your blog looks great though.
My kids also love watching Liberty's Kids. We are huge history buffs!! We are currently studying Medieval times in history, but next year we're doing US History and we just may pull out some of our LK dvds to watch. Great idea!
Well, thanks for letting me stop in - hope you find your notebook. Have a blessed day,
~Kim~
