America’s 50 States by Learning with Weblinks
All of our children, ages 5 to 14 will be creating their own lapbooks. When they are finished with Indiana, they will be choosing another state or country.
Arithmetic ~ Mathematics
For Math, I am doing the A Beka Math.
Science
We will be using the Handbook to Nature Study by Anna Botsford Comstock as a supplement as we walk and draw and write and classify in our nature journals.
Much of the information we use we will be getting from Wikipedia and the following resources.
Reading
I am going to be reading and reviewing books for GGM. Plus all the other books I am going to read for school. I will, of course, be doing my Bible Reading Challenge also.
Spanish - All-year-round
Resources:A Beka Spanish Year one and Two
Lapbooking this one too! The curriculum has a lot of graphics I can use to make vocabulary lists and other booklets for a lapbook.
Writing and Grammar
I write a lot for articles for Growing In Grace. That is counted as my writing and grammar for school. I have assigned ‘history’ articles I have to do a little research on. Basically, I have to write a report about it.
I am also going to be doing a Cursive Writing book, because my handwriting is atrocious. And a Reading Engagement book. They are both from A Beka.
Well, since this is so late, I should get working on my next post for the Homeschool Memoirs!
Hope you all have a wonderful and blessed day.
I hope you have enjoyed reading the thoughts and happenings of a fourteen-year-old girl from the country. "You can do all things through CHRIST who strengthens you!" Philippians 4:13
