I finally got around to making a Book of Centuries that you can actually put into a 3 ring binder. Unfortunately, it's not a "traditional" Book of Centuries. It kills me to waste paper & ink, which is what I'd do if I started in 5000 B.C. and put one century per page-spread. But then I'd "cramp" the more recent years, not having enough space. Therein lies the dilemma. What to do?
So I took a few pointers from Donna Young, and made a few changes, but the result is a great time-line book (with a really great cover, I might add. I just love historical images ).
You can find it on my group Homeschool Treasure Trove (link to right). It is also stored at Homeschool Launch. It was a large file so I had to break it into 3 parts (Cover choices, 5000 BC-1000 AD, and 1000 AD-2030 AD). It makes it faster to upload/download, but if you'd like it all in one file, you may download it from MediaFire.
I'm sorry you had to come to my blog to find out I'd tagged you. I kept trying to post a comment over here, but my computer was not liking your blog & kept freezing. Feel free to skip it if you want. I thought it was pretty thought provoking as far as memes go. I don't usually participate.
I love your book of time. I tried doing timelines with my kids one year. They acted like I was forcing them to walk on hot coals or something. Maybe I will try again with the younger children. They seem to be more into that type of stuff than my older kids.
I am still trying to figure out what 6 words describe my life. It's a lot harder than it seemed at first. Maybe I'll figure that out soon...and then again, maybe it will stump me a while longer. :-)
Welcome to my blog...Why "gidget"? Well...my husband tried to teach me how to surf before we were married. I was lousy at it, but he called me his "gidget" and the name stuck.
Why "Treasure Trove"? I love sharing about my sweet little "treasures"...and God has blessed me beyond measure....and no, I didn't mean that to rhyme.
