My almost 6-year-old and 2nd grader had a great time practicing their handwriting with the copywork color packet! It was a fun change of pace for them. Not only did they practice writing and recognizing color words, they were reminded about sentence structure, capitalization, and punctuation. Also, my second grader had some practice with nouns, …
My girls are so excited about these handwriting worksheets! They are the new favorites around the Hill House. While we use a formal handwriting curriculum (which we love!), I very often put aside the formalities for a change of pace. I find that if I change things up often, my kiddos seem more engaged and …
This Noun Sorting activity is similar to the Noun and Verb Sorting Activity. Since my son isn’t the biggest fan of writing, this is a great cut and paste activity for him! This cut and paste activity focuses on classifying types of nouns. A noun is a word that names a person, place, thing, or …
This Noun and Verb Sorting Activity is a fun way to practice parts of speech! This cut and paste-style activity is a welcome change of pace from regular grammar worksheets.

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! …
My girls each needed quite a bit of phonics practice when they were early readers. In fact, two of my girls needed explicit phonics instruction and practice all the way through 4th grade. I found that phonics lessons in the early years need to be short, plentiful, and most of all consistent. I, however, encountered …
In my 12+ years of homeschooling, I have found that you can’t practice phonics, grammar, Latin, or math facts too often. Add some extra phonics practice to your child’s lessons this week with the phonics sorting activity! ETA April 2022: Note that this post was originally published in May 2013. I have updated it with …
Phonics is a subject that cannot be repeated enough in the early grades. Phonics forms the basis of figuring out how words are put together and why they are formed in the way they are. I have a variety of phonics activities for my young readers – hands-on activities, traditional worksheets, our spelling tiles, and more. …
10 years ago (!), Amy from Raising Arrows and I published a series of Sermon Listening Pages for children that were able to read and those who were not quite reading. They have remained very popular here at Mama’s Learning Corner for the past many years. The sermon listening pages needed a significant update, however! …
When your children are young and still in elementary school, it is fairly easy to find themed worksheets and activities. One of my favorite ways to spice up our school days was to find phonics or math worksheets and activities that were based on the current holiday or season. If you enjoy homeschooling this way …
