Independence Day
I pledge allegiance to the flag
of the United States of America
and to the Republic for which it stands,
one nation under God,
indivisible with liberty and justice for all.

Okay, with the school year coming to an end, I started looking around for next year. I am going to implement more reading for my daughter who will be in 4th grade. Along with her reading, I wanted to find studies to go along with the books she will be reading. But, I did not want full blown studies that you find in study guides. I want her to be more independent in her work, and literature guides usually have too much teacher/parent information…if that makes sense. It would just be too hard for me or her to sift through.
Okay, so as I was searching, I decided I would forget about purchasing guides because 1. they are too expensive and my goal this year is to spend as little as possible and 2. well, what I described in the previous paragraph. So I decided I would read ahead and locate the vocabulary and design some questions to go along with the books.

OUR FLAG
THE FLAG, A HISTORY:
The Flag is not only an emblem of the Country. In its own way, it is a history of the Country, and when we have learned what its symbols and colors signify, we are able to read its story just as we would the pages of history. Every part, every color, of the Flag had a world of meaning to those who arranged them as we see them. Its makers intended the Flag to tell a story to their sons and daughters down through all ages. When you have learned to read that story, it will thrill you just as it thrilled those who gave us the Flag.

Father’s Day Lapbook and Notebooking Pages
This month we are turning our hearts to our Fathers. It was not an easy task finding information on Father’s Day. Unlike Mothers’ Day, I could not find any real documentation. So I had to go by various websites. The problem with that is you do not know if these websites did any research or if they are all duplications of each other, just worded differently. With that said, if you find any errors please let me know. …continue reading Father’s Day Lapbook and Notebooking Pages

Mothers’ Day Lapbook & Notebooking Pages
“For all the love you’ve given me,
For all the prayers you’ve prayed,
For all the tears and all the care
The sacrifice you’ve made,
For all I am or can become,
For all in me that’s true,
I want to thank you, mother mine,
For all to you is due.”
April Calendars
April snuck up on me! Earlier this month, we spent five days with my husbands daughter in south Georgia. It seems since we got back 2 weeks ago, we have been busy, busy, busy.
Here are a few calendars for the month of April. These are cute for the kids to color and to write in the days either all at once, or each morning. I just noticed though…that the days are not written out. I guess once the days are learned, the kids will understand that just the first letter of each day is shown. Mostly for younger kids I am thinking of. For all I know, they might not even notice.
