As the temperatures slip below freezing a world of possibilities for snow and ice nature study opens up.

Elementary Astronomy Ideas for Your Homeschool

Begin with NO equipment or special tools! Go outside with your kiddos, especially at nighttime with a full moon or sky of stars, look UP and ask ‘what’s that?’ Astronomy Ideas for Your Homeschool.

I’ve shared before around my own experiences with teaching science in our homeschool. At times I felt quite confident, especially in life science subjects such as plants, weather or animal study. Many other times I wondered if we covered enough of the basics.  Certain topics seemed out of my comfort zone of science knowledge.

We are exploring ionic bonding by customizing a kit from Home Science Tools. If you have ever mistakenly added salt to your iced tea, you know how similar salt and sugar appear.

The Harvest Homeschool: Agricultural Activities for the Classroom

Apples, cucumbers, beets, kohlrabi, pumpkins, and zucchini  – these are just a few of the vegetables that come to mind when I think of the fall harvest season. I grew up in a rural area so access to farm fresh fruits and vegetables has always been relatively convenient. I recall very fondly the heat of the late summer days when my brothers and I would
