Littles Learning Link Up: June 18, 2019

Each month you will find:

• A seasonal round-up (usually toward the beginning of the month)
• 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).

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. 

I don't have much to share this week. We are currently on our short break before our summer session begins. The children are enjoying VBS this week in a nearby town. Though we are technically done for the school year, Hannah and Amelia are finishing up their standardized testing this week. Here in Pennsylvania the children have to take testing in grades 3, 5, and 8. I'm very thankful for the online CAT that Academic Excellence provides. Once the girls finish their tests, I will have their results within a couple of hours (if even that long). Then I can just send the results in to our evaluator as a part of the portfolios. I'm actually putting those together while the children are at VBS, same as I did last year. I love going back and seeing what we've learned all year, seeing where the children have improved and what we may still need to work on. 

I'm actually looking forward to next week, as it will be more of a break for me. Hopefully I have all the paperwork done. Plus, I won't have to be getting the children over to VBS early in the morning. I'd love some time to just sit and read. Of course, we do still have a couple of review products we are working on, but they are not too much work. Debating if we want to receive a couple more. I've still got several hours to decide. 

Speaking of reviews, let's take a look at that review schedule real quick:

Last week I shared my reviews of  Simply Classical Writing from Memoria Press and Lightning Lit Grade 2 from Hewitt Homeschooling Resources.

Next week you will be able to read my review for Matific Galaxy which Harold absolutely loves!

And in July I will share reviews for the Music & Creativity Foundation Course from Simply Music plus the USA Activity Bundle Pack from Crafty Classroom.

Here are some things I would like to share with you:

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.
