Jack and the Beanstalk Part Two

Today I have part two available.  { 23 pages }

There are a few different activities in this pack:

including mini flip books,

cut and paste items,

comparing and contrasting,

and sentence work:  questions on one page, telling sentences on another.

The book finishes with a living and non living cut and paste sorting worksheet.

I hope they are useful.

A Little CVC Word Work { Freebie }

Today I've got a little pack on cvc word work to share.

It was made with the thought that we would use our letter tiles to make the words in conjunction with the worksheets.

A cover page, just in case you want to use it as a little book, like we are.

Just click the cover or the worksheet to download.

I wrote Charlottes name in the empty space on the top left on her copy.

And 15 handy dandy little worksheets inside.

I just placed a spare piece of paper underneath so that the following pictures don't distract from the work at hand.

The Week We Had Off School { + Times Table to 15 Freebie }

This week we took off from school.  I think we are all a little burned out by school these days, so a week off is well and truly in order.

Also this week:  Hubby surprised me with some flowers { and tons of chocolate during the week }. 

Noah continues to grow like a weed.  He's got 2 teeth now, and tries his best to get up and crawling.  He's almost there!

The girls played home made oceans and what nots.

Saxon Work Pages { freebie }

Today I thought I'd share my Saxon workbook pages that I use for the girls.

For the main lesson/mixed practice.  I just print them double sided.  I print 40 { double sided } of them, add a cover and a backside, and staple them into a book.

The other side.

 And the score card!  I also print this double sided too - because well, they do a TON of lessons and you really want to keep all the scores together.

Jack & the Beanstalk { freebie }

Today I thought I'd end my blog month with a 39 page freebie.

Apart from the usual introductory pages that I would normally put in a themed workbook,

I also added these interactive notebook pages:

Some work on the parts of speech.

I hope these are useful for you as well.

Next month I plan on adding some more Jack and the Beanstalk themed work.

{ Week 24 }

Yesterday I went down to Melbourne for the CHESS seminar.  It was my first day away from baby Noah.  He did well, I did well.

One of the catches for the day was this:

I'd been needing it for Chloe.  It's on the Grade 5 science reading list on Ambleside Online.  I do have a pdf version, but she hadn't started it yet.  It's always best to grab a printed book in preference to having to print them out if you can.  They just take up less room on the shelf.  So I never even hesitated when I saw it in the box.

Another thing I picked up was a new set of flash cards.  Now, it is true I already have a set but they are 19 years old.  They're the old ones that don't have all the RULES on the back.  So, I thought, for convenience sake, I'd get a new set.  I am big on phonics the spalding way and since LEM have based all their stuff on the same, I know it'll be super useful and handy to have for Charlotte and when Noah comes on up.

Also, while there I picked up these 3 books for the precious price of $2 each.  It's like reading their website without having to go there.  I do not subscribe to all their teachings, but I still like to glean from them from time to time.

This week I want to do an update on where we are with our History and Geography.

We continue on with MOH I.

We did skip a few lessons here or there but the last one we did was lesson 96.  Some days the girls have trouble with writing, but I continue to ask them for a basic skeleton outline and a paragraph or so on each passage that they read.

Did I ever mention that both Chloe and Phebe have READ SOTW I this year?  They read it like a novel.

For Geography we continued on with our Country and Flag study.  I continued to source their maps via google.  { So handy, I tell you. }

The girls are really LOVING this subject.

I think we MIGHT do some Earth Science when this subject is finished.  Haven't prepared anything just yet, but I do have a nice little book that we could base things from.  I dunno.  I'll let you know when and if we ever get there.

This week I'll be linking up with:

I hope you will join us.
