Benjamin Franklin is such a fascinating person to study! While we only scratched the surface of his life in our last unit study, we’re going to dig a bit deeper in our learning in the coming year. There are only a million different aspects of Franklin’s life to consider for a unit study: his service …
Hi Friends! I love my little You Tube channel, and I’m so thrilled to be back with y’all again this week! One of my absolute favorite things to talk about is books, and more specifically, reading aloud to my children. Reading aloud is the best part of our day, without a doubt! Tips and Ideas …
My children and I are in the middle of a 4-week Ancient Greece study which has been nothing but marvelous! Sparta and Athens, learning about a marathon, culture and daily life, mathematics and science contributions, and of course, the Olympics! So I was thrilled to find out about a new Summer Games Chalk Pastel ebook …
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! Next week, we’re doing a quick unit study on frogs, which fits beautifully with learning about Pond Life. My children …
My children have always loved comparing and contrasting. Often, we’ll choose two items, people, or places to compare and map out our data on our big 8-foot white board. As their teacher/mama, I like that a Venn Diagram helps them learn to analyze and think critically about two or more situations or items. Encouraging critical …
We’re working (and working…and working…) on learning multiplication facts here at the Hill House. I’ve brainstormed quite a bit and created several new multiplication worksheets and activities to help my 3rd grader work on memorizing these facts. But I’ll readily admit it is s-l-o-w going. These multiplication wheels will hopefully be a neat change of …
Word searches are always a hit here at the Hill House! I usually keep a stack of them lying on my school table. They’re the perfect thing for a child to grab and work on (quietly!!) while they’re waiting for a turn with me. Since Easter is upon us, this set of word searches focuses …
It has been a mighty long time since I published a math worksheet that focused on reading a graph. Years, in fact! I have a first grader that is just learning about bar graphs, so this spring-themed bar graph practice will be just perfect for her. No, it’s not yet spring here in North Carolina, …
There are several timeless topics that my children and I study each year. These mainstay topics seem to ebb and flow as we move through the seasons in our homeschool. As we move away from harsh winter weather and into the newness of Spring, my children and I will once again study about birds. We …
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 …
