American History Linky ~ Heads Up!

By
Because American History is going to be such an emphasis for us this year, I decided that I would do a separate post each week on what we have studied, with books read, notebook pages done, projects completed, etc. My vision is for it to be a place of sharing amongst all homeschoolers doing American History studies, from elementary to high school.

I will be posting our American History weekly studies on Saturdays. It will be called Study America Saturday. I will have a Linky set up each Saturday morning with my post and I really, really hope that the fever will catch on and you will participate! (No one likes to set up a Linky that has no Linkers! That's just sad!)

So, if you would like to participate, or you know someone who would, grab my button on the right (thanks, Shannon!), write your American History post each week, and Link up on Saturdays!

My first post and Link up will be Saturday, August 20th.

See you then!

    we'll be there it will be good for my 5 year old to learn before they do in school. Great refresher for my almost 11 year old and maybe make me like American history a little more. :)

    your welcome on the button I had a blast making it!!!

    What a great idea! We are doing the Story of the World and aren't quite at American history yet, but, I can't wait to see what you all will be up to!

We all know that in this crazy world of homeschooling, we need all the (adult) support we can get. Please leave a comment if you so wish!

Cells ~ It's What's for Dinner

Dawson made edible cells on Friday. He made an animal cell pizza ... and a plant cell chocolate chip cookie ... He reviewed what he's learned about cells the past two weeks, and I had dinner made by someone else. Win, win!! I am linking up at Science Sunday at Adventures in Mommydom.

A New Year, the Same Me

By
Happy 2019! It is that day of the year where everybody is up extra early starting their new exercise routine, eating only healthy foods, cracking open the pages of a new planner and Bible study, and debuting their Word for the year. You chuckle or roll your eyes, but you are doing at least three of these things. By the way, so am I. So let's start with the Word of the Year. Mine this year is Lagom. It's the Swedish word for "not too little, not too much, just right". It's a concept of being, doing or having just enough. So let's rewind to last New Year's Day. My Word was Might. And that's how I planned to tackle my year. And, I did. I worked out hard, I mommed hard, I traveled hard, I worked hard. And it was a good season. It prepared the way for this year. I accepted the Challenge I set for myself and succeeded. But, I don't need to keep up that pace. I am at a place in my life where I can kind of sit back and enjoy my life without f...

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? Each week, I receive an email from Rachel DeMille that sets out each date of the coming week. Under the date, there are listed anywhere from one to several events that occurred in history on that date. THEN there are ALL kinds of things to do related to that event, such as books to read, websites to visit, ac...
