Cycle 3 Weeks 7-12 Resources

Welcome to our resource list for CC Cycle 3 Weeks 7-12!

Cycle 3 Reading Plans

For a reading/curriculum plan that overlaps much of the memory work studied during Cycle 3 with an emphasis on America’s foundations of faith along with an integrated study of U.S. history, geography, and fine arts (along with science studies from a Christian worldview), check out our Mission: Lasting Liberty Curriculum Plan. (Although Mission: Lasting Liberty is not directly correlated to the memory work, it includes a more complete study of anatomy, chemistry, and U.S. History.)

For a reading plan/schedule that corresponds more directly with the Classical ConversationsⓇ Foundations Program, visit our Cycle 3 Reading Plans page.

As you can imagine, there is a tremendous time investment involved in creating this page. Please do not copy and paste the following links into other emails, documents, or websites. If you would like to share these links with others, please send them a link to this webpage. By honoring this request, you ensure that our family’s efforts to provide free homeschool resources can continue. Thank you for using and recommending Half-a-Hundred Acre Wood to others. It blesses us in return!

The following is an example of what I hope to post for each quarter of Cycle 3. All of these resources (and more) can be found by subject on our Cycle 3 Resources Page.  There are several resources on our Cycle 3 Subject Resources Pages that span multiple weeks. Don’t forget to check them out (especially math, science, and history!).

For a simple plan on how to use these resources, download our Cycle 3 Second Quarter Sample Activity Plan.
