Perfect for scouts, homeschool and church groups, making Friendship Soup or Stone Soup shows what wonderful things can happen when people share. This lesson plans gives teachers a lot of bang for their time investment. "Stone Soup" is easy to make, satisfies everyone and provides some nice pragmatic and esoteric lessons. <a href="http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/5994748/friendship_soup_and_stone_soup_classroom.html?cat=38">Read more...</a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8735098707534768014-2762708169159796674?l=diyhomeschool.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/66iLYiSeKosfkPIL36oaWAMneJI/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/66iLYiSeKosfkPIL36oaWAMneJI/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/66iLYiSeKosfkPIL36oaWAMneJI/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/66iLYiSeKosfkPIL36oaWAMneJI/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:63t7Ie-LG7Y"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?d=63t7Ie-LG7Y" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:4cEx4HpKnUU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:4cEx4HpKnUU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=da7n2syzey4:3Ld6YBhsgxM:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/lEQr/~4/da7n2syzey4" height="1" width="1"/>Marilisa Sachtelebenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00153163314905846386noreply@blogger.com0http://diyhomeschool.blogspot.com/2011/11/friendship-soup-and-stone-soup.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8735098707534768014.post-43851528011021699512011-11-01T16:22:00.001-04:002011-11-01T16:27:47.066-04:002011-11-01T16:27:47.066-04:00<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gXadDvbwo-A/TrBWO_tM75I/AAAAAAAAJOs/oP3x5HKh9Wo/s1600/images.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gXadDvbwo-A/TrBWO_tM75I/AAAAAAAAJOs/oP3x5HKh9Wo/s1600/images.jpg" /></a><a href="http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/2357650/books_and_movies_for_veterans_day.html?cat=37">Books and Movies for Veteran's Day</a> Veteran's Day remembers and celebrates the lives and efforts of soldiers, sailors and airmen the world over and especially those who gave the last full measure. It has been said of World War One that it very nearly obliterated an entire generation. In the wake of this most dreadful time followed prohibition, speakeasies, organized crime, the Jazz Age, the Stock Market crash, the migration of masses from the farm to the city and ultimately the Depression and World War Two. The disillusionment felt after World War One was expressed in literary, music, art, education, theater, financial and political upheavals felt round the world. From a 25 year teacher and homeschool mom, here are the best books to read and movies to watch, to a get a feel for this holiday. <a href="http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/2357650/books_and_movies_for_veterans_day.html?cat=37">Read more...</a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8735098707534768014-4385152801102169951?l=diyhomeschool.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/8foEXqs4b6Nb7-LWYZi_eTf0AWI/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/8foEXqs4b6Nb7-LWYZi_eTf0AWI/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/8foEXqs4b6Nb7-LWYZi_eTf0AWI/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/8foEXqs4b6Nb7-LWYZi_eTf0AWI/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:63t7Ie-LG7Y"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?d=63t7Ie-LG7Y" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:4cEx4HpKnUU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:4cEx4HpKnUU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=qWtpOg4m4wo:WaFsxrA_grQ:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/lEQr/~4/qWtpOg4m4wo" height="1" width="1"/>Marilisa Sachtelebenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00153163314905846386noreply@blogger.com0http://diyhomeschool.blogspot.com/2011/11/books-and-movies-for-veterans-day.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8735098707534768014.post-54190664632867614372011-10-19T19:17:00.001-04:002011-10-19T19:19:26.120-04:002011-10-19T19:19:26.120-04:00<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EWmxrFW4dAQ/Tp9ashTm6YI/AAAAAAAAJL0/8RXzsnj6yHc/s1600/thumbnail.aspx.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EWmxrFW4dAQ/Tp9ashTm6YI/AAAAAAAAJL0/8RXzsnj6yHc/s200/thumbnail.aspx.jpg" width="154" /></a></div><a href="http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/8258947/free_printable_weather_activities_and.html?cat=2">Free Printable Weather Activities and Coloring Pages</a> Speaking as a veteran teacher and homeschooler, I have found that children learn best when they are actively engaged.

Dr. Seuss's <u><b>The Lorax </b></u>is obviously an indictment against corporate waste, pollution and lack of environmentally friendly or green practices. What may be less obvious for teachers is how to use The Lorax in lesson plans. Here are free lessons to use in your classroom and homeschool. Great for earth science, life science, nature study, green, Earth Day, ecology, environmentalism and more! <a href="http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1529967/free_green_lesson_plans_dr_seuss_the.html?cat=4">Click here.</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8735098707534768014-7707111277128929457?l=diyhomeschool.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5AOT32zcT-wbgd3pcGV_vQlKYB8/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5AOT32zcT-wbgd3pcGV_vQlKYB8/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5AOT32zcT-wbgd3pcGV_vQlKYB8/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5AOT32zcT-wbgd3pcGV_vQlKYB8/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:63t7Ie-LG7Y"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?d=63t7Ie-LG7Y" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:4cEx4HpKnUU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:4cEx4HpKnUU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?a=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/blogspot/lEQr?i=X1O019fnmzg:wks6w4uu2A4:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/lEQr/~4/X1O019fnmzg" height="1" width="1"/>Marilisa Sachtelebenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00153163314905846386noreply@blogger.com0http://diyhomeschool.blogspot.com/2011/02/free-dr-seuss-lorax-lesson-plans-for.html
