About Me

My Photo
A homeschooling mother of one teenager and a little. In 2001, I resigned from my 13 year position as a case manager to homeschool my oldest who was a preschooler at the time, and later a daughter who came along in 2005. This is by far the hardest job I've ever loved. My husband of nearly 20 years supports us as a fire fighter and EMT.

Vintage Story Starters - September Apples

We used this vintage turn-of-the-century picture page today for coloring and conversation. An older child could use the picture to write a story about what's happening. It's in two pieces, but with a little cutting and pasting, it joins together well.

Free and in public domain. I found these in a teacher's periodical(early 20th century) at Google Books. Click on images to enlarge.

I'll have to make a vintage "A" is for apple handwriting/penmanship page to match. There are many early elementary free printable worksheets online to use with an apple theme. We used a free printable apple maze found at Google Images.

You are so awesome with the resources you use to teach your children. You are creating memories for them that they will look back on for many years to come.

God bless your sweet family!
