Intro to Forensic Science (A Timberdoodle Review)

Finding high school courses for your homeschool can be intimidating. Thankfully, Intro to Forensic Science from a Biblical Worldview from Timberdoodle is an easy course for homeschooling parents to incorporate into their routine. Busy parents will find that this course is super easy to administer, virtually hands-off for them. With both a teacher's guide and textbook, you will have everything you need for one credit with labs for homeschool science in either eleventh or twelfth grade. With a full 120 hours, this course is broken up into easy, bite-sized lessons that are fun, engaging, and educational.

The text is easy read with beautiful color pictures. Exercises, labs, and extension activities are all included in the lessons. The most important difference with this curriculum is its biblical worldview. God and His principles are presented throughout the text. I love how the lessons are presented as case studies, teaching practical skills used in the workforce today. Tying in basic and complex science principles, teens learn from real-world cases, experiences, and lessons to further their understanding of the world around them. When secular concepts are presented, it is explained from a biblical perspective.

Filled with plenty of photographs and engaging text, your child will look forward to science class each day. In addition to instructions and worksheets, the Teacher's Guide includes the Master Supply List for the labs as well as a Daily Schedule for easy administration.

If you have a child interested in forensics, this is the perfect introduction! Give it a try!

Original 13 Colonies Fact Cards (Free Printable)

These Thirteen Colonies Fact Cards were created for my kids as we studied early American history. What a pivotal time in our history! Puritans seeking religious freedom, adventurers setting out for a new land, and those in debt hoping for a fresh start—a new life. From the first colony in Virginia, until all thirteen stars on the first American flag were represented, these cards are a perfect review for your homeschoolers. Use them to drill the first thirteen colonies so your child can recite them with ease, and have them dictate the information on the cards to help them remember a small fact about each colony. Feel free to print these out and have your children write facts that they learn about each colony on the back. Go ahead and laminate them, too! Simply right-click, save, and print to use this resource in your homeschool as you study about the original thirteen colonies in America. Use the facts for dictation, copy work, or discussion in your home. Disclaimer: All co...

Use this truck-themed homeschool chore chart to keep your kids on track throughout the school week. With lessons, field trips, meals, and unexpected errands filling up your week, even the simplest chore chart can help your home run more smoothly.

The Pencil Grip Inc. {Review}

We have found what we have been looking for in The Pencil Grip Inc .'s 24 pack of Magic Stix Washable Markers . These markers are the perfect fit for a homeschooling family such as ours. I am thrilled to tell you about our experience with them! Normally, I do not have a favorable impression of markers for several reasons. For one, as a kid, I remember markers having such a strong smell that it would give me a headache. I know some kids enjoyed the scents but it certainly was not for me. And to be honest, if I had markers like that in my house today, my kids would probably stick them up their nose or something. Another reason I have a distaste for markers is the drying out factor. As a parent of many children this is super frustrating. I finally teach the older ones to put the caps back on when they are done using their markers but then a younger one comes along and just doesn't understand. This then leads to the undue frustration of your child sitting down to...
