Early American Grades 7 – 9 Package

sarah — Mon, 05 Sep 2022 20:48:34 +0000

From the Publisher:

In this course, your homeschool student will be introduced to the key principles and concepts that shaped the nation. Beginning with the establishment of the Iroquois League of Peace nearly 1000 years ago and moving forward through the Age of Discovery, the colonial period, the Revolutionary War, and into the nineteenth century, the stories of the men and women who shaped our nation demonstrate the power of ideas.

Your home schooling student will read award-winning books that tell the story of our country from a rich array of voices, develop critical reasoning skills, and hone their ability to look at history from multiple perspectives. Genevieve Foster’s “World” titles provide essential background information and can be used to expand this course to include world history using the included reference charts.

Titles by Joseph Bruchac, Olaudah Equiano, Avi, James Daugherty, Andrea L. Rogers, Patricia C. McKissack and others tell the stories of courage, determination, sacrifice and character that shaped our national conscience and propel us to continue to pursue “a more perfect union.”

The included curriculum teacher guide, designed for 7-9th grade homeschoolers, features assignments, research and creative writing projects, discussion and narration prompts to encourage critical thinking, curated reading lists for digging deeper, character connections, activities and handicraft, and more. This guide allows you, in the words of Charlotte Mason, to “spread a feast” for your child to delight in the accounts of great men and women and to learn from the triumphs and mistakes of the past.

The Pursuit of God

AWiebe — Thu, 01 Sep 2022 19:10:34 +0000

Tozer brings the mystics to bear on modern spirituality, grieving the hustle and bustle and calling for a slow, steady gaze upon God. With prophetic vigor and flowing prose, he urges us to replace low thoughts of God with lofty ones, to quiet our lives so we can know God's presence. He reminds us that [...]

Caecilia et Verus et Urbs Vastata Set

Royal Fireworks Press offers a Latin curriculum that you can implement for children, even if you don’t have any knowledge of Latin yourself.

Dr. Frances R. Spielhagen’s Latin curriculum is the pinnacle of the natural inductive approach. Rather than being forced into translating Latin, children are challenged to absorb Latin, deriving meaning from the illustrations that go with the words and developing vocabulary and grammar gradually in the natural thread of language acquisition. The illustrations of young Caecilia and her family are integrated with photographs taken at archaeological sites in Rome. Explanations in the instructor manuals provide background and additional information.

Adults who have studied Latin will find the language familiar but the materials new and engagingly beautiful. Adults who have not studied Latin will be able to comprehend the language and imbue children and themselves in the Roman world and its Latin language.

The instructor manuals provide the grammar and forms of the vocabulary that the children are learning. All of the books contain downloadable links to hear Dr. Spielhagen enunciating the Latin so that adults and children alike can hear the correct pronunciation.

This manual provides instructors with the essential vocabulary and grammar they need to guide children through the student book successfully.

In addition, it provides a set of questions in Latin with expected answers about scenes in the student book.

Second Form Latin – Student Text (Second Edition)

Table of Contents
Sample

Second Form Latin continues the journey of Latin grammar. Building on what the student learned the previous year, Second Form reviews all material in First Form, completes the verb paradigms for all four conjugations in the indicative active and passive, and much more! Once they have finished Second Form, students will have crossed the halfway mark on their Latin journey! Second Form employs the identical format of First Form—an attractive, concise Student Text, systematic presentation in five units, extensive Workbook exercises, and a Teacher Manual with everything you need to successfully teach this course.

Based on twenty years of teaching experience, the revolutionary “grammar-first” First Form Series will be your guide as you and your students successfully climb the mountain of Latin Grammar all the way to the top! The uniqueness of the First Form Series lies in two features: (1) Commitment to the trivium model of teaching grammar systematically in order to facilitate retention and understanding, rather than topically, to facilitate translation; and (2) Extensive workbook exercises to ensure skills mastery and rapid recognition of inflected forms.

The 9.5×7 inch First Form Latin Student Text is small, concise, and unintimidating, with 31 two-page lessons on uncluttered facing pages in an attractive two-color format. It offers a systematic presentation of grammar in five logical units and includes appendices with English grammar, prayers, conversational Latin, a vocabulary index, and more.

After finishing Second Form, the student will have mastered:

Six indicative active and three indicative passive tenses of all four verb conjugations
Five noun declensions, including -er/-ir nouns and i-stem nouns
Adjectives in three declensions
Personal pronouns
Prepositions
365 vocabulary words (185 in First Form, and another 180 new words in Second Form)

Science in the Industrial Age – Notebook (Oldest)

sarah — Tue, 16 Aug 2022 18:53:26 +0000

Notebooking is a great way to reinforce lesson content and create a record of what students have learned! These notebooks are perfect for those who’d like a ready-to-go version to save time, versus copying out the questions given in the textbook.

In the text, the “oldest” students are instructed to do the “older” question as well as the “oldest” question, and this notebook also provides both assignments (sometimes with slight alterations).

The notebooking pages feature writing-based questions that ask students to explain their reasoning or the concepts they’re studying, some drawing exercises, graphs & charts, and research-based questions. “Challenge Lessons” ask students to make their own notebooking pages.

This “oldest student” notebook is ideal for students in Grades 4-6.

Consumable and non-reproducible.
