We've created a page about why we think Playmobil is a good homeschooling help. Click here to take a look. There is also another blog entry where you can see some of ds's recent notebooking pages and read about our chick that hatched!

More entries were added to the AW science gravy pages and more work was done on the Children Around the World supplement (for those of you who have the link).

Our blog has a new entry and some pictures of ds's "work".

There is a new science printable to practice classification. More classification printables are coming soon, since they are being created for our son's "extras" as he studies WinterPromise's Animals and Their Worlds program.

We've started working on a supplement we plan to use for WinterPromise's Children Around the World Prgram. The supplement is designed for jr. high to high school with plenty of extras and "gravy" for younger siblings! Sorry, we aren't linking to it just yet but we'd thought we'd let you know!

We also have a NEW science printables section! We also have a new science jumping off point page.

We're also doing a lot of behind the scenes work on our math literature pages and starting a section for WinterPromise's Animals and Their Worlds "gravy". So far we have the first 6 weeks up. Items will be added as we go along through the program.

There is a new blog entry . We have also let everyone know on our copywork & handwriting page that we will be adding the Handwriting Without Tears cursive font to our handwriting printables. A big thanks also to those of you who have been ordering items through Amazon from our pages and /or through our links!!

90 new printables await in the copywork section! I finished the alphabet sheets and most of the copywork / handwriting pages that go with "Great in Counsel and Mighty in Deed".

Also, a BIG thank you to C.M. for our first donation and to all of the other moms' who have written with words of encouragement and requests. We love hearing from you all!!!

Wow! We've had to upgrade our bandwidth because we got a notice from our hosting provider. That's done and paid for!

We've also finished up the American history curriculum printable documents. We've got a hefty 82-page PDF and an editable Word document. For those of you who don't have Word, we've linked to a free program that is compatible so you can edit, tweak and change to your heart's content.

We've also added a donation page that is tailored to the homeschooling pages of the site. All of our materials are free and we don't want anyone to feel obligated to help support our site, but for those of you who wish to help out, there is now a page for that.

Another thing we've done is changed the daily schedule pages that are online to be "stand-alone" pages that no longer need to be linked to the topics pages for links and so on. More corrections and a few additions were made as well.

Thank you so much to those of you who have emailed me about the history schedule. I'm so excited to know there are homeschoolers out there using and planning to use our history curriculum!

We've made some tweaks and corrections to our daily schedule and have also added a week-by-week "bare-bones see it at a glance" books and materials list .

7-13-07
We've made some changes to our daily schedule pages like linking to online materials so you don't have to go back and forth between the daily schedule and the topics page anymore. We have also added some additional graphics to the site, added some links in our links section, etc.

7-12-07
42 New printables are posted on the copywork page. I have finished the capital letter alphabet handwriting practice pages. I still have to finish the lowercase letters. Those will be coming soon!

We have also redone almost every one of our PDF's (over 250 of them) to make them smaller files. That makes us happier concerning bandwidth and also should be a help for those of you using dial-up.

Our notebooking printables section has been expanded with new pages and new printable notebooking pages. We have two entirely new categories with brand-new printables: history notebooking printables and geography notebook pages.

7-10-07
We've finished getting our daily schedules up to go with our American history curriculum topics. There is now a total of 34 weeks scheduled with suggested stopping points for those of you who will be moving on to other curriculums such as WinterPromise, Tapestry of Grace, Sonlight, or My Father's World. You can check it all out via our daily schedule.

Yikes! It's been a long time since I've updated! We've been very busy with other projects, etc. I have gotten some requests via email and so will be working on those during the months of July and August. We hope to have our full history curriculum schedule finished by August 13 and all of the ABC copywork and handwriting pages completed. We also plan on adding some additional "notebooking" pages with new designs. Thanks to all of you who've linked to our site and helped spread the word about our materials!
