Chemistry Is Coming Your Way!

By on January 13, 2010 in One Room Schoolhouse

A reader asked me if I would make some fun downloads for a science curriculum that her family is using. She sent me the book before Christmas and it looks awesome. Keep an eye on the website for some fun Chemistry downloads coming your way. I have several download ideas just for the first chapter alone. I am hard at work, but wanted to share just enough information to give you a heads up.

You can check out the book on-line from the publisher. Real Science 4 Kids ~ Chemistry ~ Level 1 is for the grade 4-6 level, but could easily be adapted for other grade levels.

The downloads that I am making will nicely compliment this book, BUT you could use them with any chemistry curriculum. The downloads DO NOT REQUIRE that you own this book to use them. The downloads will completely stand alone without the book.

Penguins, Penguins, Everywhere

By on January 13, 2010 in One Room Schoolhouse

I have been making some penguin things recently and I have seen people mentioning them on their blogs.

I created The Penguin Path back in December and had a lot of fun trying my hand at graphic design. Spesamor Academy mentioned me in her post titled Penguins Part One and shows a picture of her children using the game board.

My first download of 2010 was Penguin Learns The Alphabet. My second download of this year was Penguin Learns -at Words. These two downloads were tons of work to make, but loads of fun. Cariann over at Unionvale mentioned me in her post -at word games.

I have some more fun ideas for Penguins that will be showing up soon.

I would love to hear what else you would like to see – leave me a note in the comments and I’ll see what I can do.

Learners TV

By on January 13, 2010 in One Room Schoolhouse

I come across many things in my searches around the Internet.

Sometimes I save interesting things to put together into longer posts or put up on my Homeschool4Free pages.

I haven’t quite figured out where this one will go yet, but it is a really awesome resource that I thought some of you would definitely be interested in. I wanted to put it somewhere (how about a simple blog post?) so it didn’t get misplaced.

Learners TV is a collection of on-line lectures (whole courses in fact) on a variety of different topics (including – Physics, Chemistry, Nursing, History, etc). They have many more resources than just the videos (like lecture notes, sample exams, and animations). Out of interest I watched a couple of the lectures and enjoyed the glimpse into the university classroom. I invite you to check out the resources on this website.
