Lovedtodeath Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Just found these coloring pages... and thought I would share! http://www.friendsacrossamerica.com/...esamerica.html What do you want to play today? Learning is an adventure, and learning about other people, places, foods and festivals are fascinating ways to get to know the world and the people we share it with. Learning can be done through play by simply using the free cultural pages, puzzles and games that we provide in this area.

Lovedtodeath Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Geography Around the World with Animals and Peoples Well I am done as I am going to be with this. It schedules 9 continents/ areas for zoology/ geography and 27 countries/areas for culture. We are implementing it and I don't want to change the schedule after we complete each step. It is very adaptable and tweakable. If you PM me with your email address I will send the whole thing. I am looking into putting it on a web page. The next post will include the Continent of Africa, and one of three sections of culture study for Africa. I will be adding a link to a sample of our note-booking in a few weeks. Booklist The Kingfisher Young People’s Atlas of the World Library books from list Material World by Peter Menzel The Usborne Internet Linked Introduction to Asia Fourth Edition Anthology of Children’s Literature by Johnson, Sickels, Sayers Around the World Art and Activities was another last minute addition. My 6 year old did not want to learn about world cultures at all until this arrived, it is the one resource (in addition to library books) I would not go without. Usborne Living World Encyclopedia is highly recommended for every continent of study, but it only been scheduled for Africa. In addition, Disney Learning’s Our World is to replace or supplement the other Atlases listed; this was a last minute change and is not scheduled. Additional Library suggestions for higher grade levels: http://www.ala.org/ala/alsc/alscreso...roundWorld.cfm free world geography and cultures supplement / curriculum for jr. high and high school! http://ourlosbanos.com/homeschool/history/worldstudies.html Additional resources for Zoology: http://www.ourlosbanos.com/homeschool/science_animals_gravy.html If you are using this with a first grader like mine, the books Count Your Way Through… and The Biography of… are too advanced. Each page has the information of an encyclopedia. Material World is good for pictures and discussion with younger students but too much reading. The library books are the meat of the program and we did most of our culture learning from these. In the Draw Write Now Map lessons, the teacher did the drawing and our student traced it and cut it out to past on the notebook page. Of course, adjust as necessary for your child.
