I have found that in a lot of schools they no longer teach history. This is bizarre! Instead they have replaced it with environmental studies.
Poetry was a favourite with me at school....Love it.
Peace, joy and love to you Alexandra:)
Marie xoxoxo PS: I am feeling MUCH better:) God bless you.
Very nice links. Thank you.
This isn't really about this post, but I just wanted you to know how much you have touched my (and therefore my family's as well) life. I have three sons ages 7, 8 & 9. I have always homeschooled them. Until a few months ago, I homeschooled half the week - it was a complicated situation but it worked. A few months ago, without any warning, I had to leave my job and homeschool. While it was I've always wanted, it was still a shock. It also took away every single discretionary penny we had. I know I should be thankful that my husband makes enough to pay all of our bills, and believe me, I am, but to radically change lifestyles in the blink of an eye was a hard thing to do. I found your blog when I started researching some ways that we could save money. Your tips and posts have often brought me hope in some dark times. I am happy to say at this point things have settled into a life that is manageable and wonderful, but there were some days if not weeks when I wondered how we would survive. Thank you for being a beacon of light.
Thank you! I'm looking forward to checking some of these out. Am tickled to see some in my kids' age group :)
Thanks, wow...I'm glad I could be of help, Bathcake. God bless you. Thanks for taking the time to comment. :)
Alexandra,
I always love the freebies you find! I'd love to know how you do it. What are your secrets to finding these things? And can you do a tutorial on using Google books? When I follow your links to the public domain books on Google books, I don't see how to actually get to the book itself. Can you give us some more tips? :-)
Jimmie, do you see the sidebar when the link loads? Look to the right sidebar and click on, "About this book". This will navigate you to the main page for the book. Under "About this book" is a Table of Contents button.
At the top of the right hand sidebar is the download button.
At the top of the book link you'll see the Page "Go" button and arrows. This is how you turn the pages.
Just use the sidebar buttons to navigate the book. Click around a bit and you'll get familiar with the set up. These three buttons are all you need to know to get started.
Thanks for your nice comment. :)
Oh, and the Table of Contents is clickable.
Great links. We'll get a lot of use out of these.
Great links! I am so glad to have found your blog--what wonderful resources!
