Littles Learning Link Up: September 17, 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.

In our history we moved on to read about Charles V, the Spanish Conquistadors, William the Silent from the Netherlands, Mary, Queen of Scots, plus Sir Walter Raleigh. We are working on creating notebook pages and building onto our timeline, plus we have map work.

We still have to make our World Cake. We actually made gluten free brownies and were going to frost them, but the brownies were just calling to us, so they got eaten first. We saw an idea of using rice krispies treats, so we might be doing it that way! Stay tuned. 

In science we are starting with we continued learning about different animals in God's creation. We have been focusing on vertebrates, learning characteristics of vertebrates, plus discovering that their are 5 types of vertebrates. Sadly we couldn't do the little hands on activity of making a backbone with spools of thread, as I have no clue where my thread disappeared to.

And over the weekend we had the opportunity to go to the Corning Museum of Glass. I will be sharing pictures from our field trip in tomorrow's Wordless Wednesday. 

And of course the children are still working on their review materials. 

Let's take a look at that review schedule real quick:

Last week I shared my review of Easy Grammar Plus from Easy Grammar Systems (which Tabitha and Amelia have been using). This week you will find my review of Online Times Alive from City Creek Press, Inc (which Amelia and Hannah have been using). And next week I will share my review for the HiGASFY Art History Video Series.

And then in October I will be bringing you reviews for Elephant Learning Math Academy, the two newest books in the Secret of the Hidden Scrolls series from WorthyKids Books, Fun Family Chess and Wooden Building Planks from Brain Blox, Smartick math subscription, the Drawing Program from Creating a Masterpiece, Excelerate Spanish, plus a multiplication practice book from Channie's Visual Handwriting & Math Workbooks.

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

Apple Fun Round Up- 70+ Apple Themed Ideas

Fall Leaves All Around Round Up

Next week I hope to share an ocean themed round up. Sorry this keeps getting postponed, I've been awfully busy with my new venture, being a Pampered Chef consultant. If you have any posts you would like included, please leave a comment or contact me via the contact information on my About Me page.

Now onto:

Littles Learning Link Up Features

On my last Littles Learning Link Up post, there were no posts linked up. I hope to be able to have posts to feature next week.

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.
