Littles Learning Link Up: April 21st, 2020

   

Each month you will find:

• Posts where I share what I have been up to with my elementary-age children and the preschoolers I work with at our homeschool co-op (including occasional highlight posts where I share how we used ideas that have been linked up here on Littles Learning Link Up).
• The occasional round up post.

Each week, I will host a link up, where you can share either what you have been up to recently, or old posts that may go with the theme.  Feel free to link up more than one post.

Each week I will continue to feature a couple of posts from those that have been linked up. 

I hope you will continue to share your wonderful posts, and I hope you will find something new to try with your child(ren).

It would be great for everyone to stop by and visit the other linked-up posts as well. Check them out, leave some comments, pin those that interest you. Let's make this a real party and socialize with each other.

Here's a peek at what we have been up to in our homeschool.

As I mentioned last week, we haven't really been using our My Father's World curriculum at this time. Tabitha had gotten ahead of us, and I hadn't had time to get to our history readings. 

However, that doesn't mean we haven't been busy. The children get on the computer daily. The girls use CTCMath for their math, while Harold has been using that plus Matific Galaxy. We also added Math Seeds back in because they were offering a month free due to the Coronavirus. Reading Express also is offering free ebook workbooks in both reading comprehension, spelling and math, so I downloaded some of those to use. Hannah and Harold have been working on fractions. 

Tabitha has also been using a Math Essentials book, which is a current review product. 

They have continued using Let's Go Geography during their computer time to learn about countries they are interested in. 

Harold and Hannah are also working on handwriting with an ebook from Everyday Education. Yes, another review product. 

Harold and Hannah have been taking some art lessons with Beyond the Stick Figure. Here's a little look at what they have been doing in the beginning drawing lessons, where the teacher gets the student to focus on seeing and drawing circles, dots, curved lines, and straight lines. 

Mommy's been having fun too:

Unfortunately I have no more co-op lessons to post about.

Here are a couple of things I would like to share with you:

Fishy Under the Sea Literature and Craft Round Up

Butterfly Fun Round Up

Butterfly Metamorphosis/Life Cycle Fun Round Up

Littles Learning Link Up Features

On my last Littles Learning Link Up post, there were 2 wonderful posts linked up. I'm going to feature both of them this week.

Please, don't forget to stop by other posts that are linked up. See what catches your eye, stop by, pin the post to a relevant board, and perhaps leave a comment to let the author of the blog know you have been by for a visit. I know I appreciate others commenting and letting me know they have read my posts, so I am sure others do too.

Join the Party!

I would love to have you join in this week! What sort of activities do you do with your young children? Do you have some favorite activities you would like to share? I invite you to link up below. I will be pinning posts on one of my relevant boards, and I would love to feature some of the activities each week from what is linked up.

Please know I may share a picture from your post and link back to it, along with sharing how we used your idea in our school time. By linking up you are giving me permission to use a picture from your post. I will ALWAYS give credit and link back. Additionally, if you choose to try out any of the ideas with your child, please make sure you give credit where credit is due.

Linky will be open through Monday night, to give me time to check out all the posts and get the Features organized. Please take the time to visit some of the other wonderful posts linked up.

No button currently, and there won't be one until I can figure it out seeing as Photobucket has changed things. Feel free to still share the picture in place of the button. Just link it to my Littles Learning Link Up permalink please.
