This year one of my middle schoolers is using BookShark Virtual Level F Eastern Hemisphere.
We will be taking a look at life on the other side of the world. Unlike most other BookShark levels, Level F is not a chronological study, but is more of a unit study as we travel around the Eastern Hemisphere, exploring countries and cultures very different than our own, such as Japan and China.
I’ve got three ways you can teach art in homeschool even without being an artist yourself. There is more to art besides doing it, which helps a lot!
The Summer slide is real and even happens to homeschoolers! It’s one reason we have adopted a more year-round schedule for our family. Our summer learning has a different flow and is a time I like to use to try out new things while keeping the basics strong.
I am scheduling BrainPOP Homeschool assignments and activities to match the units and topics we are already covering in our other curriculums this year. Instead of searching the internet for activities to add, I can find everything I need in one easy place, which keeps it simple for both me and my students.
I think a homeschool photography class can be a great outlet for Outside the Box Kids because it is all about capturing what they see, and not recreating it with their own hands either by writing or drawing which can be a challenge for some.
