Hello! Welcome to Eclectic Education Homeschool! My name is Lynn and I am a Homeschooling WAHM. I write here about my daily happenings at home with my two darling sons. When I am not busy taking care of children, I write for eHow, make pages on Squidoo, and spend time designing merchandise for Lynn's Boutique. I also make free curriculum for homeschoolers to use at Homeschool Launch. I would love for you to check out my work. I hope that this blog will be a blessing to other Homeschool mothers and be a light for my Savior Jesus. So please pour yourself a cup of coffee and sit back and enjoy! Please also feel free to check out my website, Eclectic Education Homeschool Curriculum, for more homeschool tips. Thank you for visiting!

~ Back to Homeschool! ~


It's hard to believe it about that time of year again!!!  Isn't it exciting???  I am busy wrapping up our final plans and looking forward to a very exciting school year.  I hoping it will be our best one yet. 

 

About my blog... well, some of you may have noticed I have not posted near as much as I use to.  I plan to change that.  With the new school year, I plan to blog more about the things that go on in our school and the different projects that Little One is doing.  I hope you will check back often to see what fun things we are doing. 

First things, first...

There are some great sales going on that I want to mention.  First is:

NotebookingPages.com Back-to-School Sale Event - 50% Off

If you have ever seen any of Debra's stuff then you know it is worth every penny of the full price.  Half price is just amazing!!! I highly recommend you check it out.

Also Motivated Moms is half price right now.  All the planners are only $4.00!!! This is an awesome price and a great time to try it out.  Using one of their planners will help you get yourself organized during the school year with all the other things that life includes.

Click here to visit Motivated Moms website!

With going back to homeschool, come needing to find resources...  I have put together several curriculum pages for the different grade levels.  If you want to supplement your studies, please check them out.

1st Grade

2nd Grade

3rd Grade

4th Grade

5th Grade

6th Grade

Jr. High

High School

Don't forget to bookmark them, if you plan to refer back to them through out the year.

Also want to mention that I have set up a new homeschool website called Eclectic Education Homeschool Curriculum.  I would love it if you checked it out.

 

Now to my homeschool plans...

I mentioned some of my plans in this post "Back to School Plan with Resources Attached".

Here are some more plans for the year:

Extras:

I'm sure these plans will change some over time, but those are my plans right now.  Here are some of the books I will be using if you are interested in any of them.

It looks great. I have our schedule tentively in my head, I have to type it out. We don't really follow a time schedule, but a 'this comes next' type of schedule. That way I don't miss anything. :)

Aug. 11, 2009 - Music/Piano Curriculum & Contest

Posted by Sarah from MusIQ HomeSchool
Great post, but you missed an important subject! Families may also want to add music instruction to their daily routine. 'MusIQ HomeSchool' is a seamless solution - it's an award-winning, K-12 music/piano curriculum designed for regular instruction at home. Piano levels range from beginner to advanced intermediate (RCM Level 5): http://www.musiqhomeschool.com

Until September 21, we're also running the 'The Great HomeSchool Giveaway' Contest - where families can win over $5,000 in music education prizes, including software, Lesson Plan books, and digital piano keyboards!

To enter, contest entrants are invited to write a short essay (100-500 words), submitted online, on why they want music for their child[ren]. Essays will be judged on originality, creativity and overall impression. A full list of contest rules and entry information may be found on the contest web site:

http://www.musiqhomeschool.com/great-homeschool-giveaway

Yours in Education.

ps. Lynn, if you are interested in blogging about the contest, a media/technical resource contains images and code: http://www.musiqhomeschool.com/wp-content/uploads/landpage/contest-ads.php
