"Brown Like Me" Book Reviews: Fish School

http://brownlikemebookreviews.blogspot.com/2011/01/fish-school.html

Monday, January 3, 2011. Charlie got a goldfish for his birthday and he vowed to teach Wishy everything he learned! Attempting to follow through with his promise, Charlie secretly hides Wishy in his backpack and takes him on the school field trip to the aquarium! After he misplaces his backpack, Charlie and his classmates stick together like a school of fish and search for Wishy together! This is a really cute book! My kids LOVED it!

Geometric solids : Montessori and more

http://adventuresofarainbowmamamama.blogspot.com/2012/02/geometric-solids-montessori-and-more.html

Thursday, February 2, 2012. Geometric solids : Montessori and more. We love our Life of Fred. Books around here. Credit (once again :) has to go to Tracey. For all of her wisdom! To supplement, and ensure we are covering the full state syllabus for Maths, L is using the Targeting Maths. Workbooks. And then, when appropriate, my original love - Montessori - will also come into play. The pages he completed from the TM. Book today were about 3D Shapes or as we know them in the world of Montessori - Geometric.

adventures in homeschooling: confession time

http://tkrhomeschool.blogspot.com/2010/05/confession-time.html

Tuesday, May 18, 2010. So, my friend pointed out to me the other day that I haven't blogged here since February. I thought it was finally time to come clean on the reason why. I know she doesn't fully grasp the reality which is school, but she was truly excited about giving it a try. I told her that if it was something she wanted to try, she was more than welcome to (each year we always ask the kids what they would like to do the following year. they've just always said "homeschool" in the past). This is...

adventures in homeschooling: the opera....

http://tkrhomeschool.blogspot.com/2010/02/opera.html

Thursday, February 18, 2010. Yesterday the kids and I got the opportunity to attend the dress rehearsal of the Lyric Opera's. Production of The Damnation of Faust. Amazing, simply amazing. I'm not saying that we really understood much of what was going on. but the music and the staging was wonderful. The kids were mesmerized. especially Alex. He knew more of the story and was totally into seeing it come together on stage. Not Spongebob, or Hannah Montana. but opera! February 18, 2010 at 9:24 AM.

Kids and Nature: A handful of Chickadees and Nuthatches

http://kidsandnature.blogspot.com/2009/04/handful-of-chickadees-and-nuthatches.html

Sunday, April 12, 2009. A handful of Chickadees and Nuthatches. We returned to the conservation area where we had fed the chickadees two weeks ago. The kids were eager to explore every small side trail leading off the main path. At one point we could hear lots of chirping and singing in the trees. I took out my ziploc bag of birdseed and almost immediately they were on our hands, one after the other in rapid succession. Charlotte Mason, Vol. 1 pg. 90. Burgess Bird Book for children, pg. 220. We had read ...

Making music with kids: July 2012

http://makingmusicwithkids.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html

Making music with kids. Monday, July 16, 2012. Getting teachers on your side-finding the right fit for gifted young children:. This post is part of the Parenting the Gifted Blog tour. 1) Do your research. The fact is that giftedness isn't easy to deal with as a parent OR as a teacher. It's so easy, as a parent, to hear that a friend's child is having a great time in Kindermusik and comes home tired and takes a good nap and it's heavenly and think "Oh, I could use that! 2) Try it out-. The result of that ...

adventures in homeschooling: changes here too... (maybe)

http://tkrhomeschool.blogspot.com/2010/09/changes-here-too-maybe.html

Thursday, September 2, 2010. Changes here too. (maybe). I posted on my other blog that I am considering password protecting my blogs. I'm not entirely sure that I will password protect my homeschool one but I am for sure going to password protect my other one. What are your thoughts on this? Hey there old friend. Thats a hard one. I can totally understand being concerned about weirdos out there. Do what you feel is best, but email me a pwd so I can stay in touch :). Hows school going so far for Clara?

Catching Fireflies and Blowing Dandelions: Introverted

http://chermerecafe.blogspot.com/2009/05/introverted.html

Catching Fireflies and Blowing Dandelions. Tuesday, May 26, 2009. I never really thought of myself as introverted because I enjoy hanging out with people I really like and I have a need for intellectual conversations. I have read that Introverts feel drained after spending time with groups, big and small. I don't feel drained so I thought I wasn't an introvert. Imagine a bucket of energy - when I go into a social situation I often ladle out the energy for everyone else (more than they ask for), leaving t...

Learning centers | The Wonder Years

https://growinginpeace.wordpress.com/learning-centers

Activities and Ideas for Your Little Explorers. Math Manipulatives, Links, and Printables. Early Language/Fine Motor/Writing Tips. This weeks Picnic Table Talk at ABC’s and 123’s is about Organization. One of my most favorite topics. I absolutely love organizing – when I’m inspired to do so. With my children’s educational things and art supplies and kitchen, I found that being organized helps them and me find what we are looking for. To see what’s inside the cubbies, check out this post.
