History Education

By
Okay, I don't know how I got signed up for this! Maybe someone did it for me. Maybe I did it myself without remembering.

But, for the past two months I have received complimentary materials from The History Channel.


Last month was a newsletter with study guides on various upcoming History Channel topics. One of them is on a Greek God we will be studying in a few weeks. I was excited to receive it!

Than today I got this ....


A complimentary copy of the 3-dvd set of America: The Story of Us by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt.

I looked at the site and it sells for $39.95! It's a 12-part series, which means a future 12-week study on the formation of America at our little school.

I looked all over the website for any link to sign up for free materials like I am getting, to share with you, but I couldn't find anything! If you know how to do this, please let me know and I'll pass it along.

These materials are fantastic! Thank you to whoever signed me up for them! {And if it was me then, "thank you, me."}

ABCya

Eli's reading resource teacher shared a website with me yesterday that I would like to pass along. It's called ABCya . There are separate educational sections with fantastic games for ages kindergarten through 5th grade. I browsed the 2nd grade level, and it includes age-appropriate games about Letters, Numbers, Shapes, Geometry, Patterns, Mouse Manipulation, Art and Holiday games. There are lots and lots of fun and creative games for children to play. They are fun, but oh, so educational. Eli's favorite, in his short time playing it, was Create a Car . A lot of the games also have Apps available for purchase (99 cents for most of them) for the iPad and iPhone. I have been looking for another free website for games similar to Starfall , for some time. I think I have found it. I can feel confident having Eli and Brynne play these games.

A Thomas Jefferson Education "This Week in History" ~ Schoolhouse Review

By
Talk about a GOLD MINE! A Thomas Jefferson Education's This Week in History by Rachel DeMille is her "labor of love" ... and I absolutely LOVE it!

For just $9.99 per month, you can log onto TJEd.com and click the "This Week in History" link to obtain many, many, many resources tied to specific events that occurred in the upcoming week in history. Or even better, you can receive the summaries and links to ALL resources right in your email Inbox each week! It doesn't get any easier than that! What does this really look like in real life?

THEN there are ALL kinds of things to do related to that event, such as books to read, websites to visit, ac
