Science and Civics: Sustaining Wildlife Project Wild Curriculum guide for grades 9-12 Project Wild National Office Council for Environmental Education 5555 Morningside Drive, Suite 212 Houston , Texas 77005 www.projectwild.org The book was free, a nearby hs group had a class with it. I'd also check the National Wildlife Federation, www.nwf.org and The Nature Conservancy for materials.

Usborne has a book on doing this.

I can't find the book right now, my book room has been taken over with wedding gifts , dress and yet to be put away Christmas decorations! But I have a course , bought from Timberdoodle, many years ago.If it is not on their web site , e-mail them for the name.It was a nice starter course with estimating & drafting.

Thank you , so much! Becky

I was searching yesterday and saw the book & coloring book. It might be a good fit for my daughter. Where do I find the QSL Biology Lab kit? Thanks for any help. Becky

When I open a thread , I get a box to scroll through now. I like it ! Did I turn on an option ? or win a prize? Becky

We filed our returns, all six of them, 2 weeks ago. I don't remember how much we are getting back, it will all go to property taxes. We are getting over colds picking and nibbling on what ever appeals to us. I had left over Zuppa, ( my homemade version of Olive Garden soup) & club crackers, pepper jack cheese & smoked sausage slices.Lots of tea to drink.The girls are old enough to feed themselves. Trying to resist the nap in hopes I'll sleep better tonight. I'm posting to see my avatar show up. It has taken me a while to choose, the hive has inspired me! A picture of my tea table. Becky

I live in NEPA and will be driving down on Thursday. This is just minutes from my hometown so I will be staying with family. Thank you to everyone who is making this happen! Becky

I've thought about reading "The 4th Turning",and looking at how each decade was experienced differently by different age groups.

Thanks, I needed these too.

I saw a comment that bumped us up from "pagans" to "the enemy".:glare: What's next? How long till we get labeled "anti christs" ?

My son told me if I want to close it, I should change all my info put up false stuff, leave it for a while then close the account. Then the info & pictures that are saved on the www is not really mine. H.

Jeanne Robertson, clean humor for the over 50 crowd. :lol:

I'm in the Poconos,I havea big house.

:grouphug: I'm sorry, I know what it's like to have a lot of distractions.We're missing modern history too. What engineering is your son interested in? H.

Several of my children have been very hands-on, so I've had an unusually large amount of stuff to keep track of. The others were bookworms. I had a large family and to keep my sanity we studied as much as we could together. These 2 things seemed to help me the most! I had several bookcases that I sorted everything on. The ancients case had shelves for Egypt, Greece, Rome, Mesopotamia, China and etc. I kept movies, DvD's crafts, models, & books for me and kids together. Same with cases for science , sorting astronomy shelves,nature studies, etc. I kept kits, books, biographies all age materials on the same shelf. If I was going to teach a class using lots of things , I kept a spread sheet. This was a big help & worth the time one year we did a giant unit study on geography. We used movies , novels, myths & poems, environments, cultural travel vidoes, cookbooks, scenic wonders books man made & natural, maps, you name it. I made 3 spread sheets based on Michael Palin's videos of everything we had and would borrow from the library. So like when we traveled through Turkey , I knew what to cook, read , watch, print a map and where in what books to find what we needed.

:bigear: I've only read HTRAB. I would like easier for my daughter.

Took another look at the Philly convention thread. Googled for yellow & black striped clothing. Looked at a yellow & black tote bag. Checked to see if I still have the hairband with the antennae on it. Confirmed I wouldn't want Dh to pick my clothes. Paused a moment over the Narnia thread to be thankful I have finally escaped to the mountains. Checked my spelling and am proud of myself for spelling antennae right! H.

The Horse and His Boy, was my favorite. I could identify with story and it's parallel to my life. H.

Sounds like my Dh. He also thinks sexy nightwear is a union suit, over sized fannel shirt & heavy wool sox.:lol: H.
