<br />
I have at least one child who is disturbed by any sort of change in routine midway through the school year. So there is pressure to get it right from the start.<br />
<br />
I think other home schooling parents must have difficulty tailoring curriculum to their students because I see a lot of curriculum with one or two pages completed or in new condition for sale by other parents.<br />
<br />
The other problem of course is that so much curriculum is bought sight unseen from online sources. Being specific in your search for material and critically reading reviews, especially the negative ones, is essential. And still you might end up with curriculum that doesn't quite meet the needs of your school/life or home school. Being 5000 miles away from curriculum suppliers and libraries, we've had to "make do" with what I bought a few times. It can be frustrating and painful for parent and child, but life's like that sometimes.<br />
<br />
Whether you love the curriculum you bought or you're unhappy with it, here's some suggestions for getting the most out of what you bought:<br />
<br />
<b>1.</b> Find the instructions for the teacher. Sometimes this is a big text separate from the book you child will use; sometimes this is a few introductory pages. Read the instructions for the first few lessons. This will tell you how the author thought you would use the content. This is your chance to be the teacher and decide how you will use the content. Reading the teacher's manual will also help you to know in advance what sort of help is available if you or the student struggles.<br />
<br />
One of my children used Saxon math again this year. "Mr. Saxon" thinks that every problem in every chapter should be completed. I don't agree. So my child will complete only a portion of each chapter's questions. Now in case you think my child is a math whiz kid, let me set you straight. Making math lessons as painful and as long as possible will not make my child a math whiz kid. There is already fear and loathing when it comes to math, Every question in every chapter will turn math into a battleground and there is no learning when you are under enemy fire. By carefully choosing which math questions to do, my child has a chance at success. <br />
<br />
This is your chance to change things up and give life to the material. I love workbooks, oh yes I do. I love all those neatly completed pages one after the other; but that's me! I'm not sure that workbooks always are the best way for students to learn information. I still order workbooks, in fact I ordered one from <a href="http://currclick.com/">Currclick.com</a> recently and downloaded it. I used it as a teacher's guide for a set of lessons I did with fractions. My students completed some of the pages and used the manipulatives included in the text, but they will never see the big fat complete book. They will only interact with the material as I guide them through it. <br />
<br />
<b>2.</b> Find the marking guide. It took me most of three years with Math U See curriculum before I realized that the marking guide was in the back of the teacher's manual. That's because I skipped step one. The other reason to find the marking guide is so that your student doesn't succumb to the pressure and use the marking guide as a way to shorten their study time. I've had more than one of my blessings use the guide in the back of the book to "check their answers" before they wrote them down. <br />
<br />
If the marking guide is in the teacher's manual you didn't order because it was thick or expensive, now is a good time to change your mind. The marking guide saves you time and frustration. I bought the teacher's manual for my daughter's grade 10 English course last year and it was an invaluable help not just to me but to her as well. When she missed the mark with an assignment, I could show her from the teacher's manual the suggested answers. This made grading simple and improved her comprehension of the material. This was well worth the extra cost.<br />
<br />
<b>3.</b> Now is a good time to choose pretests, midterms and post tests. I like to use the same math facts quiz (one for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) three times each year. So I make three copies of the quiz I plan to use at the beginning of the year. If they're in my planning binder, I am much more likely to use them.<br />
<br />
<b>4.</b> Review the table of contents. What will your child be learning and in what order? <br />
<br />
Last year when my son was struggling with his science curriculum, we reordered the units. He got to do the ones he was looking forward to first! That way, if for some reason we didn't complete the dreaded curriculum, at least he learned about topics he was interested in.<br />
<br />
If there are subjects in the table of contents that you have already covered or want to leave out for some other reason, pick and choose the areas you wish to study. Don't let the curriculum boss you around.<br />
<br />
It's okay to order and use curriculum which does not suit the learning style of your particular student. Gasp! You can read aloud the passages from a workbook and have your student answer orally. You can turn science into a series of game show quizzes, complete with a bell to ring. You can learn perimeter and area using bathroom tiles or a tape measure and area rugs in your house if there is too much workbook in your math program. Make the curriculum work for you and your student.<br />
<br />
Reviewing the table of contents also gives you an opportunity to order additional material from the public library, find a YouTube video or two to watch along the way or even find some internet/app games to play which will help the content be converted into understanding. If you find and record the information now at the planning stage it can be in your house and ready to use when you need it - even if you have unexpected company, work commitments or the toilet overflows. <br />
<br />
Just a note about games, just because it's "educational" doesn't necessarily mean it's fun to play. Never buy a game you haven't personally played and enjoyed. Yes, I know from personal experience. If it is both educational and fun to play, don't assume that your children will understand why it is relevant. My eldest played <a href="http://www.dragonboxapp.com/">DragonBox</a> and really enjoyed it, but never really understood that it was teaching her how Algebra works. The activities didn't cross over in her mind. Don't assume they understand. Tell them.<br />
<br />
<b>5.</b> Now get out a pen and figure out what will be done when. Get detailed. Write dates on the table of contents, make lists of additional curriculum. Write assignment due dates on the calendar. Look carefully now at when big assignments are due. If the assignment is due the same week as the dance recital, you might want to change the due date now while it's easy. Midterm exams aren't much fun if you have to do them during the family vacation. Take your life, your commitments and your lifestyle into consideration when planning.<br />
<br />
<b>6.</b> Chores. Now is the time to give thought to what daily, weekly, monthly chores each of your children will be doing. Early in my education as a home school parent, I heard a conference speaker say that children should be given work to do as soon as they are physically able to do the task safely. That means that my children do their own laundry and have since they were about 8. The youngest, who is now 13, needed help last year because he wasn't tall enough to hang his clothes on the line to dry. This year that isn't a problem, because he's taller than I am. All our children began in the kitchen as table setters and have graduated to meal makers. The eldest one at home (16) has been making meals independently for a couple of years. This year she worked unsupervised in the kitchen and prepared two evening meals each week and worked with her younger brother one day each week. This year, I worked with the 13 year old and he independently prepared his first complete meals for our family this year. Making the bed, keeping your room tidy (vacuumed and dusted) are all work that even the youngest school age child can accomplish. Get the routines established before you get back to the books.<br />
<br />

Happy Planning!Susanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11106448204787874513noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6964475413957037153.post-42606500694479431082015-03-26T04:39:00.000-07:002015-03-26T04:39:12.754-07:00How Many Subjects?When I was new to home education, I had a long list of "school" subjects. In addition to math, science, social studies, and English; there were Bible, music, foreign language, home economics, art, physical education and the list went on and on and . . . Well you get the idea.<br />
<br />
This was a stressful way to educate, because lesson planning and supervising three children in fifteen different subject areas in the course of year is IMPOSSIBLE. My beloved facilitator finally clued me in. Now there are only four school subjects: math, science, social studies and English. The rest is "life" or "enrichment". So for the four school subjects, I carefully plot, plan and purchase curriculum. (for more on what to do with curriculum see blog post coming soon "I bought the curriculum, now what?") Because we tend to follow a more traditional home education approach, this works well for us.<br />
<br />
For all the other things we do, I provide opportunities to learn and experience. There have been lessons, courses, camps and coops. I report these accomplishments to my school board at the end of the year, but I don't grade them. I find serious answers for serious questions and model where and how to look up answers. Eventually, I say, "I don't know. You should look that up." In this way I hope I am creating life long learners.<br />
<br />
This has lightened the load for my children too. Now there are some activities where they lead the learning. I have seen both my daughters enjoy drawing, painting, sewing, and other crafts. I don't grade their efforts or their output, I just hang their creations on my walls and brag about their progress.<br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Where the Bible is concerned, I have modelled daily Bible reading and also modelled once in a blue moon Bible reading, because I am not perfect and life can be chaotic. We talk about what we read in the Bible, just as we talk about and share everything we read. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">In the area of home economics, my children have been required to plan, shop for and make meals. Not once in a while, but weekly because we all like to eat regularly. They do their own laundry and keep their rooms tidy.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<div>
The areas which aren't graded tend to be those areas which will become life sustaining in their later years. Everybody asks why it's necessary to learn Algebra, nobody questions the need to learn to read and understand a recipe, or why it's good to have rackets or sticks and move a ball around.<br />
<br />
So we homeschool, but we also live.</div>

Write a letter to be delivered later. You can write to your child or they can write to themselves. This free mini lesson guides you through the process:<br />
<br />
Letters to the Future: <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/FREE-Letters-to-the-Future-179923">http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/FREE-Letters-to-the-Future-179923</a><br />
<br />
If you want to you can even send the letter by email at some later date. <br />

<u><b><span style="font-size: large;">Planning:</span></b></u></div>
<br>
1) Each student gets one page with their name and school year as the title.<br>
<br>2) Make five headings: English Language Arts, Science, Social Studies, Math, Other<br>
<br>
3) Under each heading list any curriculum you plan to use. I usually put lots of detail into this list. <br>
<br>
For example at the beginning of the year the list for my 12 year old son's math section looked like this:<br>

<br />
<u>Writing With Skill Level 1</u> by Susan Wise Bauer: Excellent curriculum for Grade 10 English. It teaches the student to research topics and outline papers in a step by step process which is painless for the parent and the student. Be sure to buy both the instructor's manual and the student book. You'll need both these fat fabulous books. The instructor's manual includes information on how to mark the papers, and how to help the student along the way. <br />
<br />
<br />
<u>Mad Minute</u> I first encountered Mad Minutes in a public school classroom nearly 30 years ago. These 30 or 40 question drill pages really forced my students to learn and remember their math facts. I made all of them do them and they all improved speed and and accuracy in all four operations.<br />
<br />
What didn't work: <br />
<br />
<u>Saxon Math</u> Both my high school students are using Saxon,
unfortunately what makes Saxon an easy text for parents also makes it
easy for students to get the right answer without understanding the
concepts. (Each question has a lesson number.) If you can decipher the
curriculum, you don't have to understand the concepts just follow the
examples in every single problem. Coming from Math U See, I also don't
particularly like the seeming random order of the chapters. Not sure
about alternatives for my high schoolers, but my 12 yo might just
continue with Math U See.<br />
<br />
Monarch Online Science This year two of my students tried Monarch's science courses on line. One of my high schoolers did Chemistry and my 12 yo did Science 600. These are dense full year courses. I bought them because I thought they would provide a change from textbook science. Last year I spent a lot of my time trying to find YouTube videos for my son to illustrate scientific ideas. I had the impression that Monarch's lessons, especially Science 600 would include lots of audio and video presentations. I was disappointed. The videos were generally poor quality and done by a man dressed as an eccentric scientist; not really the picture of science I wanted for my son. If you have a student who learns by reading, has taken algebra and is interested in Chemistry, then this is a great course for them. Lots of detail here, but read carefully or you'll miss the clues which will help you answer the questions. I thought this would be user friendly and plug and play, but I spent hours and hours helping both students understand the material and answer the questions. There is no teacher's manual for the parent, so ideally you should pre-read and understand the material before your student does. On the upside, you can change the order of the units; allow your student to skip questions and choose which days are school days. The online part of this course worked flawlessly. You can print informative grade reports for each course and student.

the Yann Martel's purpose? Why did he start sending Stephan Harper
books? Do you think a PM has time for a lot of free reading? Find out
how the arts are funded in Canada? Answer these questions in writing. <br />

failure? What does the word Metis mean
now - and what did it mean in Riel's time? Is Louis Riel a Canadian hero? Treat this as a research project and generate a thorough response in the form of an essay.<br />

<br />
6.) Find statistics for Canada, USA and one other country. What are the latest available numbers on military spending? Can you find a per capita amount so you can compare the countries side by side. It might also be illuminating to look at violent deaths in those three countries. Does military spending correlate in anyway with the number of people who are killed (or injured by guns)? <br />
<br />
7.) In your opinion is peaceful protest a useful way to make changes in society? Why or why not. 500 word7Susanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11106448204787874513noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6964475413957037153.post-23547510056503417902014-02-21T04:14:00.003-08:002014-02-21T04:15:46.412-08:00Art History <b>This is a self directed unit study for my high school age daughter.

<u>Assignment:</u><br />
<br />
1. Write down as many synonyms as you can which might be substituted for "artist" ie painter. Don't use anything more than your own brain as a reference! Create a power point slide using this list. Add to the list as you discover other endeavors which could be included. These additions should be in a different font or colour to differentiate them from the first list.<br />
<br />
<br />
2. Create one power point slide for each artist. Each slide should have the following information: Name, birth/death, nationality, home, art education, preferred medium, preferred subject, style and one representation of their work <br />
<br />
3. There should be a minimum of five Canadian artists and five artists of other nationalities.<br />
<br />
Here are some Canadian artists who are "household names". You can choose a person from this list or any other artist for your assignment.<br />

If you have some historical fiction recommendations for this age level, post the titles as comments. I just discovered a series called "I am Canada" on Amazon. Unfortunately for us the books don't seem to have Kindle editions, but they look excellent and cover a wide range of historical periods. <br />
<br />
<u>General:</u><br />
<br />
My First History of Canada by Donalda Dickie and Rudiger Krause Sam will be reading this independently and we will use the questions and activities in the back as a jumping off point.<br />
<br />
History Tellers*: <a href="http://www.historytellers.com/">www.historytellers.com</a>
(I couldn't get this link to work from Turkey and there seems to be no
recent posting on their FB page.) I bought this curriculum years ago
and used it as a supplement to our studies. This year we'll be finally
using the stickers that came with the kit to build a time line of events
and aide memorization of the events. We'll also be using it to provide a bit of structure to our studies.<br />
<br />
Canada My Country by Donna Ward and Marj Cassidy Used to discuss the difference between political and physical maps. Read aloud Unit 2 Physical Map about each of Canada's regions.<br />
<br />
Map Exercise: <a href="http://www.lesplan.com/files/CanMap_Lev1.pdf">http://www.lesplan.com/files/CanMap_Lev1.pdf</a><br />
<br />
This map of Canada is a nice size for colouring or labeling. <a href="http://www.pm.gc.ca/eng/Colouring-Book"> http://www.pm.gc.ca/eng/Colouring-Book </a><br />
<br />
The Story of Canada by Janet Lunn and Christopher Moore may read parts aloud <br />
<br />
Canada S&S Learning Materials Sam and I used this before. We may put some of the graphics to use if we decide to do a lap book.<br />
<br />
Canada Symbols Kit I got this cool resource from my brother who was a classroom teacher. There's a card for each of the provinces with the coat of arms, flag, floral emblem and some basic information on one side and on the reverse origin of the name of the province, and a short history. Might post these.<br />
<br />
Canada Colouring Book - good line drawings but Sam isn't really into colouring<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Canada: A People's History http://www.cbc.ca/history/ We've viewed the first 5 of these documentaries. My 12 yo son has really enjoyed them. They're about 90 minutes long, but they are organized in short vignettes. It's easy to stop in the middle and pick up where you left off. I've never watched them before now and I highly recommend them. We found them on YouTube, but I think they are worth the purchase price or borrow them from your local library. We also liked seeing some of our favourite actors!<br />
<br />
This very useful PDF breaks each video down into segments and tells where they are on the dvd so it is possible to review certain vignettes and skip others. We'll be using this in the fall. <br />

<br />
1) first overseas conflict in which Canadians served<br />
2) Canadians Sam Steel and John McCrae served (alongside Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Gandhi, Winston Churchill and others)<br />
3) Canadian military reputation<br />
4) Demonstrates the relationship between Britain and Canada and the continuing conflict between French and English Canada. Both of these affect Canada in the century to follow.<br />

I like the suggestion on this website to first check your "state's" graduation requirements. The other thing that can be helpful is to check your Department of Education weighs courses. Is a full year course worth 5 or 6 credits? Is a half year course worth 3 or 1?<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<u><b>Note Taking </b></u></div>
<br />
I used the information below, which I gleaned from this <a href="http://www.dartmouth.edu/~acskills/success/notes.html">website</a>, to teach my middle and high school students about formal note taking.<br />
<br />
Note taking is a useful skill which can help you learn material presented by lecture or in the form of text. Note taking can help you focus, participate as an active learner or listener and retain important information in long term memory. After all, if you're going to spend the time reading the book, listening to the lecture or taking the course you may as well actually learn, understand and retain the information and ideas presented. If you have learned the information, you will be able to recall it accurately and rapidly.<br />

The ability to write neatly and rapidly are important skills for note taking and for life. Strive to improve in these two areas. Although people talk about 100-150 words per minute and we think at 400-500 words per minute, we can only write about 30 words per minute. So practice, practice, practice.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Attending a lecture, listening to a podcast, or watching a video also requires excellent listening skills. Focus on the topic, listen to everything the speaker says before accepting or rejecting ideas. Don't follow rabbit trail thoughts. Listen for verbal cues: there are three kinds of ..., in conclusion, to summarize, emphases tone of voice and gesture Look carefully at anything that is written for the students on a blackboard.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The goal of note taking is not to transcribe what the speaker is saying, but to capture the most important points, arguments, salient details in order to review them and recall them</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The same is true of note taking from text. The idea is to capture the author's main ideas in a condensed format and your own words so you can review and recall the information at a later date.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<u>Notes:</u></div>
<div>
Uniform paper easy to file</div>
<div>
Title the page, use a date or the lecture title</div>
<div>
Be brief</div>
<div>
It's O.K. to use symbols or abbreviations but be consistent</div>
<div>
Be neat. If you can't read it later; it's useless</div>
<div>
Use your own words except for formulas, definitions, and facts.</div>
<div>
Use quotation marks if you're not using your own words.</div>
<div>
Use outline format if this suits the material and the speaker's style.<a href="http://www.google.com.tr/imgres?imgurl=http://wordsworth2.net/images/outline.jpg&imgrefurl=http://wordsworth2.net/writing/outlines.htm&h=707&w=509&sz=76&tbnid=iLchYcYXyDCm8M:&tbnh=90&tbnw=65&zoom=1&usg=__OsLBUzNM6J8LqBKeYaTIg4udKdY=&docid=Oylo4KCfXsSskM&sa=X&ei=EfcyUoS6GsGXtAbii4H4BA&ved=0CCkQ9QEwAA&dur=374">(Show example of outline and discuss parts)</a></div>
<div>
<br />
<u>Cornell Note Taking Method</u>, show page format and tell how it is used.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Review right after lecture or reading make any corrections or additions as necessary. Do you have questions about the material? Write them down or ask them now. 5-10 minutes</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Before the next class review your notes. Condense them, recite the main ideas, and reflect. What's the big picture? 5-10 minutes</div>
<div>

This 5.99 game/app is supposed to a fabulous help for teaching equation solving generally and algebra specifically. There are 2 levels +5 and +12. I bought the +12 level. It is challenging for me. The 11 yo and 14 yo pursued the first few levels and the high school student is making her way through all ten levels. I haven't managed to do all ten levels yet. I am not sure how or if it will really help the Algebra student, but it's fun to play.<br />
