Willow Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 This one is for you! Is there something school related,. curriculum, or parents help homeschool book, that you would be overjoyed to find in YOUR Christmas stocking this year? Something that makes your life easier, or offers the help you have been craving? Myself, I would like a really good homeschool specific planner!

Guest Alte Veste Academy Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 (edited) I would gleefully receive anything from my long range wish list or the WEM reading list. :001_smile: Teaching the Classics Life of Fred Hillyer's History of Art, Architecture and Sculpture (Calvert set) MCT or CW (can't decide, really just want to see...also waiting to see SWB's WWS) Song School Latin and Latin for Children TOG 1-4 Analytical Grammar/Junior Analytical Grammar the complete collection of Golden Guides art supplies handicraft supplies Homeschool in the Woods sets for Artists and Composers I realize some of the items don't necessarily appear to be strictly for me as a teacher. However, my feeling is that buying things in advance and using them to self-educate before having to teach them will make me a better teacher when the time comes.

myfunnybunch Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I would LOVE to find a fun supplementary curriculum that combines science and art and/or math and art. Real art and real science/math, not cutesy crafts like "Make an octopus out of a paper plate!" (Not that there's anything wrong with that. Said in my best Seinfeld voice, which isn't all that great.) *sigh* Anyone have/heard of something like this? Think Santa will write one for me?

kalanamak Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Building Foundations of Scientific Understanding: A Science Curriculum for K-2 Elementary Mathematics for Teachers from Singapore Math I'm not quite ready to part with Ele Math for Teachers, but honestly, I learned more from: http://www.amazon.com/Learning-Mathematics-Elementary-Middle-Schools/dp/0130116815/ref=tmm_pap_title_0 There is a newer edition, but this is the one I have, and half a buck+shipping is not bad. Regarding Nebel. I am ready to part with this book. Send me you addy on my email or PM, and I'll send it to you, gratis, the first time I get an Amazon box that fits it. I am simply not going to get this worked in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athena1277 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I really want a globe to use with dd. A flat map just does not always work. I also want Rosetta Stone Spanish and lots of the "extras" that make learning fun, but that are too much for our budget right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Hen Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I have all the curriculum we need. I will be thrilled if I find a Kindle --- it's school related since I could be reading the books my ds will be reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, my feeling is that buying things in advance and using them to self-educate before having to teach them will make me a better teacher when the time comes. That's my excuse too :lol: I'd love "Teaching the Classics" but I'm getting Analytical Grammar (for the above stated reason) and can't have both. For next Christmas I want LOF Fractions and Decimals and some Latin curriculum. Haven't decided which one yet though. The year after that I want LOF Algebra and a logic program. Haven't decided which of those either. I'm a Capricorn, I like to plan in advance. ;) The good thing about the Latin is dh wants to study it too, so I might be able to buy it for *his* Christmas present and get LOF for mine :D Rosie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
