MomtoCandJ Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Does anyone know of a free kindergarten history and science reading list? We are after schooling dd in these two subjects. We want something that will let us stick our toes into a little of everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MomtoCandJ Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 Thanks Terabith that would be great.... can someone please tell me which science goes with the late renaissance and modern cycles? I know one is chemistry and the other is physics but not sure in which order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomtoCandJ Posted July 11, 2013 Author Share Posted July 11, 2013 Does anyone have an afterschool planner page? I have no idea how I would make my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 www.donnayoung.org has oddles of planning pages. My dh made one for me that is simply 6 rows across and adjustable to hoever many rows down I need. It doesn't have to be fancy. Get a pretty notebook and write down on each page what you want/did that day. The science cycle is: Life/Biology {Animals, Plants, Human Body} Earth and Space {Rocks and Astronomy} Chem Physics Perhaps this site will help? http://elementalscience.com/classic.html History is: Ancients Middle Ages Early Modern Modern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MomtoCandJ Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 Is there a resource for free maps for dd to color?

duckens Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 For K level Science, I recommend the "Let's Read and Find Out" series. Just print a list from your library and check them out one at a time. I count 42 in our library, and see 102 online. For K level History, look at "Picture Book Biography" by David Adler They are biographies, and not a history sequence, but they touch on many ideas introduced in history: Louis Braille, George Washington Carver, Harry Houdini, plus many of our presidents. I count 14 in our library, and 37 total. These two series are not "have all - be all" of history or science, but the data is good, and the age is appropriate. If I was homeschooling, I would consider a simple (homemade) timeline to add basic events and people for a K level. This would plant the seed that different people did or did not live at the same time. It would also outline specific wars or other major events. Example: WWII: not so long ago. Revolutionary War: not the same as WWII, and quite a bit longer ago. George Washington: same time as Revolutionary War Rosa Parks: not even as old as WWII.
