4th Grade Test Prep

  As my son works his way through his  Timberdoodle Grade 4 Kit , he is lightly introduced to the concept of test-taking skills in various ways. Two of the materials included in the kit are: Thinking Skills for Tests: Upper Elementary Test Prep: Grade 4 Using the Timberdoodle scheduler, his school year has been primarily open-and-go. He logs into his scheduler each day, and he knows exactly what he needs to do. I am still helping him with about half of his subjects, but he is able to complete several independently.  Having these two test-preparation books built into the schedule is a gentle way to introduce test-taking skills. This was the first year he has been introduced to tests in the traditional sense. In years past, he would take occasional quizzes and tests for math and plenty of dictation for history and science, but not all homeschooling methods rank test-taking at the top of the list—usually it is the exact opposite. Testing makes perfect sense for a co-op,...

Epic Heroes & Heroines of the Middle Ages

  Hands-on homeschooling does not have to be intimidating. It all comes down to a mindset shift. Redefining education. What I have seen with homeschoolers, and what I am guilty of myself is trying to do too much. By attempting to do traditional schooling *plus* the extras. What if the extras could actually count as school? What if the hands-on experiences around the kitchen table or on the living room floor are where the learning truly happens? This week, my kids have learned about the parts of a cell through notebook journaling, how to read through a Green Eggs and Ham unit study, and about the Middle Ages with paper dolls. Yes, paper dolls! A more acurate term would be articulated paper dolls, but yes, children can and do learn through play.  Epic Heroes & Heroines of the Middle Ages: Articulated Paper Dolls to Cut, Color, and Assemble   was added to our homeschool as an supplement to our Medieval studies, but this resource could easily be a stand alone unit. In add...

My Lil Startup (Review + Discount)

Families looking for a quick and easy way to teach their kids entrepreneurship without spending piles of time and money to get started can open-and-go with My Lil Startup ! I was hesitant at first. Are parents going to really spend five dollars on slime? The answer—absolutely. My kids actually SOLD OUT of slime. That's right. They sold out! So, yes, this slime essentially sells itself and I give all of the credit to the marketing. 75% of the Marketing Is Taken Care Of 1. The SLIME SALE tablecloth draws customers in. They know exactly what they are getting. The clear and concise signage bring them over. 2. The quaint packaging is uniform and consistent. The customers' eyes are drawn to the variety of slime options, not varying sizes or containers. Labels are already on the containers—your child just fills them in with creative names for each type of slime they create.  3. Marketing copy (text for your kids to read or memorize) is provided for your kids to use to sell their slime...
