Hi there and happy summer! I hope everyone is getting to have some down time and staying cool in this weather. We did our scout camp two weeks ago. it was fun, nothing like fishing, zip line, BB's and Bow and Arrow (Which I got to do too, and I wasn't too bad at it!!) It was so hot though. I am a cool weather person. I just wanted to say hi to everyone and tell you all it is crazy busy right now, wait isn't this summer? I was just looking over my week for next week and it is already full... hhhmmm I need some down time!!

We are still doing some school work, I don't want that new stuff  that he learned to slip through the cracks and be gone! I am going to try to stay up with the blog for summer, so do send me info to post, I'll get in on as soon as I can. Have a great summer! Cheryl

This came over as a request for posting~ I don't know anything about it, price does look good though~~ Cheryl

Dear Homeschool friends,

            Having homeschooled for 13 years, I know that we all want to get as many resources for our kids at inexpensive prices.  That is why I started writing unit studies and magazines, to offer them to homeschoolers at the most reasonable prices around.  I am a certified teacher as well as a freelance writer. 

I have over 200  E-unit studies all for under $5 at www.hshighlights.com   

I have a kids online magazine with a one time subscription price of $10 at www.kidzwonder.com

The first issue is FREE and there is a Unit study in each issue.

Ladies Lovely online magazine full of lovely things and uplifting thoughts at www.whateverlovely.com

The first issue is FREE   the one time subscription is only $5.

Please look at these items and consider passing this information on to your homeschool friends, group, email list, bloggers, and Coops.     I would really appreciate this.  I am always looking for

articles for both magazines as well.

Thanks so much

Teresa

Right now anyone who contacts me at highlightsfreebird@yahoo.com  can get any of my unit studies for $1 each, this week of april 20-25th.
