Snails! A Mini-Study!

 Who knew that I would fall head over heels in love with SNAILS?! 

Well, it's happened, and I only have my kids and God to blame. I mean, when you really stop and look at them closely they are beautiful and fascinating. 

You don't think so? 

Then this little mini-study is for you and your kiddos! 

I dare you not to think snails are pretty awesome after learning about them and studying them up close. 

I dare you! 

But seriously... we have had so much fun learning about and studying snails over the last few months so I knew I wanted to put something together to share that love. 

In this free file I've included: 

-book suggestions
-activity suggestions
-a little idiom slide for "a snail's pace"
-several snail poems we love 

My hope is that you will come to love and appreciate snails as much as we do and maybe even collect a few to keep as pets. Yup, we are now the proud owners of FOUR snails we are keeping as pets. HA! 

Simply click on the picture below to grab your copy! (If the link gives you any trouble let me know and I'll send it to you directly)

If you have any snail-related books, activities, or whatever that you love, I would love to know!

Patriotic Songs for Morning Time or Memory Work


It's June and around here that means we are thinking ahead to July 4th and all things America and patriotism. In my opinion, the time between Memorial Day and July 4th is the perfect time to learn some patriotic songs, read some great books, and prepare our minds for the importance of Independence Day. 

We are going to be learning and singing some patriotic songs in morning time and adding the lyrics to our memory work binders, so I just thought I would share! 

June is a great month to focus on patriotism because during the month we remember D-Day, celebrate Flag Day and the birthday of the Army, reflect on the importance of the Magna Carta, learn about bald eagles on National Bald Eagle Day, and celebrate Juneteenth. I'll try to come back and share some of the books or activities for those specific days, but for now, enjoy these patriotic songs! Just click the picture below and it should open the file but if it gives you any trouble let me know and I’ll send it to you directly.💙
