Moving Beyond the Page ~ Age 4-5 Curriculum RELEASED

I have often been asked what we used for kindergarten with Brynne. My typical response is to read, read, read, learn letters and handwriting. Maybe throw in some fun topical math. We learned a letter a week.

This weekend I posted our review on Moving Beyond the Page. It is a literature-rich unit study product that we absolutely loved (and will be using extensively in the future to supplement our studies)!

Today I received an e-mail that the 4-5 age program has been released. Oh ... this is totally what I would have used if it would have been available when Brynne was that age. It looks EXCELLENT! It also covers a letter a lesson, based on a picture book.

You can see a sample of the A lessons, and I encourage you to check it out. I was not asked to post this recommendation. I just like to pass along valuable products when I find them. This is a product I think any Pre-K or kindergarten home educator would love to have! The cost is minimal, too, if you are able to get the books from your library. The online version of the unit studies is only $124.19 and includes the full curriculum unit study guide and the materials kit. If you don't have access to a library with the books, you can purchase them all through Moving Beyond the Page.

You can also receive an additional 10% off with coupon code FUNINTHESUN. It expires at midnight on Monday, July 8th.

A curriculum for ages 12-14 is coming soon, as well.

CTC Math {Schoolhouse Review}

We found our groove with math this year. I found a curriculum that both of the kids respond well to and seem to enjoy (as much as one can enjoy math). We have spent the whole year learning the ins and outs of multiplication and were just a few lessons away from being ready to move onto the next year-long level on division. And then an opportunity to review the 12 Month Family Plan from CTC Math became available. To be honest, I wasn't very enthusiastic. I mean, why mess with the methods that have worked so well? When I was chosen to review the product I didn't go into it with the level of enthusiasm that it deserved. We have been using a dvd/workbook curriculum with great success. The 12 Month Family Plan from CTC Math is a web based curriculum. As we have not had a lot of luck with those types of programs, I went into this review with a negative attitude. And then my socks were knocked off by how great it is. In fact it is so great that we are going to continue to ...

Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt (Schoolhouse Review)

For the past several weeks we have been reviewing Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt and the Old Testament and Ancient Egypt Flashcards from Veritas Press . As we were entering into our more easy-going summer schedule, and had just concluded a two-year Old Testament Bible course, I was happy to try out this product as it appeared to be something that Eli and Brynne could do together, alone, and would act as a review of the Old Testament presented in a different way. And I was right. Each Veritas Press Self-Paced History program includes 160 lessons teaching about 32 events in history. They are designed for children in grades 2-6, and it is recommended that the student be a minimum of 7 years of age at the time of the first lesson. What We Received We received a full one-year subscription, for one child, to the online Veritas Press Self-Paced History: Old Testament and Ancient Egypt program and the accompanying Old Testament and Ancien...
