When they in the younger grades, my children loved writing booklets – even the children that hated to write! Something about the mini-book aspect made it seem more palatable. You’ll find many different types of mini booklets here at Mama’s Learning Corner – coloring books, writing booklets, and math fact booklets, to name a few. …
Continents Writing Booklet with Picture Dictionary
Writing booklets – my children love them! I have published many mini booklet styles over the years – coloring pages, writing booklets, math facts, and more. Writing in a mini booklet is a nice change of pace! If your children are learning about the continents this school year, this would be a great complement to …
Bee Writing Booklet with Picture Dictionary
My 1st and 3rd grade girls can’t get enough of the writing booklets with picture dictionaries! I’ve published a few over the past year, and I have several on my laptop that I have not yet had the chance to post. I don’t use any type of formal writing curriculum until 4th or 5th grade, …
Martin Luther King, Jr. Writing Booklet with Picture Dictionary
While evaluating our homeschool at the end of last year, I realized that I had not emphasized writing enough on a daily basis. It was the one thing that fell between the cracks. Actually, writing AND science tend to be the things that are not completed by the end of the day. Sigh. In an effort …
Plants Writing Booklet with Picture Dictionary
If you’ve been a reader at Mama’s Learning Corner for awhile, you know that my children love mini-books. I’m not sure what it is about the smaller format that makes writing so appealing, but it certainly works! And if I’m being honest, I enjoy the smaller format, too, when practicing writing with my younger ones! …
Blank Thanksgiving Writing Pages
Thanksgiving is just a few short weeks away, and I’m a busy bee getting our Thanksgiving-themed work together. Because we all need a change of pace from time to time, my girls (4th grade, 2nd grade, and Kindergarten) will use these Thanksgiving Writing Pages to complete most of their assignments over the next few weeks. …
Simple Writing Activity for Kindergarten and First Grade (with a video!)
I’m so excited to be back with y’all on You Tube this week! It’s been awhile! During my You Tube season, I try to post a new video 3-4 times each month, usually at the beginning of the week. This week, I’m sharing with you a very simple writing activity that I do with my …
Fruits and Vegetables Unit Study: Planting Seeds and Nature Journals
This week my children and I are studying fruits and vegetables – how they grow, the difference between a fruit and a vegetable, why we need to eat them, how our bodies use them, and more! I’ve had a lot of fun putting this fruits and vegetables unit study together, and I’d love to share …
Blank Winter Writing Pages
Winter weather is upon us here in North Carolina! Even though we’re dreaming of snow, it’s not quite cold enough to snow…yet. We’re holding out hope for a few inches of snow in late January or February. In the meantime, we’re working on lots of winter-themed activities, because learning always seems to be more fun …
The Christmas Tree Ship: Geography and Writing Activities
This post contains affiliate links. This week, my little girls (ages 6 and just turned 5) and I are reading through The Christmas Tree Ship as part of our Christmas School. While we’ve read this book several times before, I thought I’d add in a few enrichment activities this week a la literature-based unit studies. …
“I am thankful for…” Writing Pages
I work very hard – daily – at helping my children develop thankful hearts. Gratefulness certainly comes much easier to some of my children than others, as I would guess is the case for most families. The Thanksgiving Season {which is closely upon us!} always brings a fresh renewal to work on thankful hearts here …
