Teaching Poetry to our children: the idea sounds picturesque, high society, serene and intimidating. The reality I have found is that it’s simple, fun and easy. Last year, we started including it because it was part of our curriculum from Sonlight.
I was excited to have the opportunity to receive an Ultimate PreK-12 Annual Membership to SchoolhouseTeachers.com because I have considered it before when choosing curriculum for our family. Even without a membership you can browse the online classes they offer to see if it’s a good fit for you. I was curious to try it because I like to pick and choose different materials throughout the year, and this has lesson plans and materials already put together for each class making my planning easier.
Today I am sharing The Lord’s Prayer Copywork pages, a resource I created to help our kids learn the Lord’s Prayer during this past year.
But don’t underestimate the value of being flexible and being willing to throw it out and try something completely different. Unlike a traditional school your curriculum, choices only have to be a good fit for your family, and not other people. Each family is different. What your best friend loves may not work for your family, and that doesn’t make you a bad homeschooler!
