Throughout the amazing United States of America and the world at large, our lives have been turned upside down due to the new coronavirus. If you read my email this past week, you know that I’m just going to keep on keepin’ on with my little website of worksheets and learning ideas. I don’t have …
Spring Word Wall with File Folder Activities
This Spring Word Wall post was originally published in March 2017. I’ve updated it in a major way! Here’s the original post: Before I had the baby, I gathered a few ready-made worksheets and printables for my little girls to work on during our (very sporadic) school days. As I was putting together the resources …
Parts of Speech Recitation for 3rd through 5th Grades
As a homeschool family that teaches in the classical tradition, it should come as no surprise that Latin and English grammar are two of our core subjects. As my older children have moved along in their studies, it is even more apparent to me that English grammar is a subject to be mastered. In those …
Winter Worksheets for Kindergarten and First Grade
It has been a long time since I published a Kindergarten and First Grade packet for your young learners! These packets are a bit more time intensive and require some creativity – two things I’m a little short on this year. 😉 However, I’m happy to publish this BIG winter worksheets packet today! It’s the largest …

Long Vowel Word Search Puzzles
While phonics and reading have come very naturally to some of my children, other kiddos of mine have struggled to internalize phonics concepts and read fluently. In the past 2 years, I have read more about phonics than I ever wanted to know, and have truly taught myself how to teach my children. Is it …
How We Use Rod and Staff English Grammar in Our Homeschool
Through the years, there have been many – and I mean many – changes in curriculum in our homeschool. In fact, I’d be pretty embarrassed to tell you the times we’ve changed curriculum. The reasons for our many curriculum switches is a post for another day that I hope to write soon. As much as I …
Fall Tracing Worksheets for Preschool
Well finally we have a taste of fall here in North Carolina – on October 5th! It was 94 yesterday and the high will be 69 degrees today. I do love North Carolina weather. ♥ So with the late arrival of fall, it’s time to comb through the Fall worksheets and printables here at Mama’s Learning …
Our Experience with Traditional Spelling I from Memoria Press
I’m in my 9th year of homeschooling, and it is shocking to me how much homeschool curriculum has changed throughout the years. The variety and types of curriculum offered have exploded. In my earlier homeschool days, I used and loved All About Spelling. It was a perfect fit for my oldest child. In recent years, …
How I Teach Spelling in Our Homeschool
When we first started homeschooling, there were a few subjects that I knew I would have to read and research to successfully teach my children. Math and writing come immediately to mind. But spelling? Surely not. How hard could it be to teach spelling? I mean, really. I am a natural speller, and I could tell …
