The Making of a Gigantic Music Staff

Well, I guess we can add this to the list of things I never would have thought to do had it not been for our classical homeschool group – and those precious 4 and 5 year olds who are too cute (and quite perplexing) when being introduced to music theory. For years now our community […]

How to Draw a Crayfish & Crayfish Anatomy

The children in our homeschool group are recording their thoughts, observations, and conclusions in a science journal this semester. The science journals consist of blank copy paper stapled together with cardstock covers. For me, when drawing from a specimen, it can be difficult to know where to start.

Timeline Thumbnails {Free printable}

While my children are mostly auditory learners, I am not. I discovered this when we had listened to the Timeline song a bajillion times and I STILL could not remember what came after Early Native Americans.
