We are using Story of the World for History. Because History starts
MUCH further back in time than the book starts we started with a Pre History unit.
*****{To determine if this unit is of interest to you:
This is from an OLD earth creationist perspective. We also acknowledge
that MICRO evolution (within species) is a fact, but not MACRO (between
species) The evolutionary part is easily altered for whatever your perspective is}.*****
I could not really find a great unit
out
there for this. Most everything is either strictly secular evolutionary
process or young earth creationist. Neither of which we adhere to. So I put together
my own Pre History Unit from various sources. We did a
fly over without a lot of detail. This is elementary after all. If you
are also a homeschooling family who is Old Earth Creationist then this
section is for you! Let's share, send me your thoughts and ideas in the comments section. I am
sure we will be doing this again and will need better stuff!
For
this we are using a modified Note booking concept in which we keep
everything in a three ring binder. Each activity is recorded in a
picture or writing or both and placed in the binder. This is organized for elementary age.
Welcome
This blog started out as an exploration of field trips by grade level which a family can take to enrich their child's school curriculum. I originally started this for Charter School families, or any family, wanting to supplement with fun family field trips. Since then we have decided to home school, so the bent and flavor has changed. I will still post field trips, but also home school related posts. We have four kids who span 8 years. Two high school and two elementary. Our elementary kids are home schooled.
