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, …
If you’ve read through many of my book lists for kids, you know that there are several topics that we learn about each year in our homeschool. That often involves reading the same books year after year, which is a treat for our family! We haven’t studied bees in a couple of years, so we …

Since we’re studying fruits and vegetables this week in our science unit study, I wanted to include a set of 3-part cards for my younger girls (ages 5 and almost 7). I’ve only made a few sets of 3-part cards, but I must remember to add these to my printable queue since my girls always …
My kiddos and I are continuing on in our fruits and vegetables unit study today. We are having a great time learning all kinds of fruit and vegetable vocabulary, learning how these plants grow, and how they’re categorized. We’ve taken a long break from science and it feels great to get back into the swing …
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 …
Spring is the perfect time to study frogs, don’t you think? There’s something about spring and the newness it brings that makes my kiddos want to learn about all kind of animals – frogs included!
