• Empty two-liter pop bottle
• Exacto knife
• Dirt
• Small shovel
• Sand
• Grass clippings
• Kitchen compost (apple peelings, etc.)
• Worms

Before you let your child loose in the garden, you will need to use the exacto knife to cut off the entire top of the pop bottle.

Help your child create a label for the container that has the child’s name and “worm farm” printed on it. You can make it by hand or on the computer. Tape the label to the front of the container.

Go out to the garden with your child and let he or she shovel a couple of inches of dirt into the plastic container. Pat the dirt down so the next layer of sand won’t filter through. Explain to your child that they need to be careful not to shake or jar the bottle or the sand and dirt will become mixed up.

Add a thin layer of sand, and then continue with a couple of inches of dirt and another thin layer of sand. The top layer should be dirt. Leave an inch or two of space at the top of the bottle.

Next add a few grass clippings on top of the last layer of dirt. The worms will need food, so add a few pieces of fruits or vegetables in with the grass, such as apple or orange peelings.

If you are lucky enough to have worms in your yard, help your child dig for a few worms for his or her worm farm. If you can’t find any, go to your nearest bait shop and buy a small package of night crawlers.

Let your child play with the worms before putting them in the worm farm. Help them make observations about their worms. Check out a book about worms at your local library or search for information online about worms. Talk to your child about how a worm’s job is to eat waste and mix it into our soil to fertilize it.

After your child places a couple of worms into the worm farm, they will be able to see for themselves how worms mix up soil. When the worms dig through the container, they will leave a trail of sand behind them that your child will be able to see mixing into the dirt.

For the most worm activity, place the worm farm in a dark place or tape a piece of paper around the worm farm to keep the light out. Worms do most of their work at night.

Your preschooler will have a lot of fun creating his or her worm farm. From digging in the dirt, to playing with worms… what’s not to like!

They do not learn sequentially so “traditional” teaching methods and curriculum only lead to frustration and poor academic performance.

Visual Spatial Learners:

• Think in pictures
• Recognize faces, objects, shapes, colors, details, and scenes
• Have a good sense of direction
• Need to understand the big picture before getting into the details
• Do not learn sequentially (step-by-step)
• Learn by seeing and observing
• Use visual images to recall information
• Enjoy doodling, drawing, painting, and sculpting
• Often reverse letters when writing
• Do not learn through repetition and drill
• Discover patterns easily
• Doodle while listening

How To Choose Visual Spatial Homeschool Curriculum

Choose curriculum that can be read aloud, has manipulatives, or is experimental in nature. Look for resources that focus on the big picture of a subject, patterns, and relationships rather than facts and sequential steps. Avoid workbooks and textbooks (in most cases).

HISTORY
Reading (and read alouds) allow visualization of the stories. Use videos, computer programs, lapbooks, notebooking, and hands-on projects.

LANGUAGE ARTS

Visual Spatial learners benefit from visual aids when learning new information and for getting their thoughts on paper. Look for resources that utilize flow charts, concept mapping, graphic organizers, and art.

These learners are brilliant with content yet struggle with the mechanics of writing. Remember, best-selling authors have editors! Avoid curriculum that emphasizes spelling, grammar, and capitalization.

LITERATURE

Reading (and read alouds) allow Spatial learners to visualize the stories in their minds.

MATH

Visual/pictorial aids and manipulatives are a necessity in math. Use illustrations and stories to teach facts and processes. Color code steps for solving math problems. Spatial learners excel with concepts but struggle with details and computations.

PHONICS

Visual Spatial learners often struggle with learning to read. Use a phonics and whole word approach to reading. Since they think in pictures, connect letter sounds with pictures. Give them plenty of time with this.

SCIENCE

Use flow charts and graphic organizers for visualizing information. Use reading (and read alouds), videos, computer programs, lapbooks, notebooking, and plenty of hands-on experiments.

Visual Spatial Learning Activities

Visual Spatial learners think in pictures so use graphical and pictorial methods of working with ideas and presenting information. When planning lessons ask yourself…

1. How can the topic be illustrated?
2. How can my child ’show’ me what he has learned?

Teach Lessons Using…

• Visuals – “a picture is worth a thousand words”
• Flow charts to teach processes
• Colored pens to distinguish parts (show parts of speech in a sentence, spelling patterns, divisor/dividend, etc.)
• Videos
• Field trips
• Highlighting, underlining, and drawing images while teaching
• Discovery – capitalize on your child’s pattern-finding strengths
• Reading aloud
• Visuals hung up around the room (i.e. Greek & Latin word parts)
• Unit charts to introduce the big picture

Have Your Visual Spatial Learner…

• Draw while listening to lectures
• Use webbing to brainstorm, organize information for writing (pre-writing), or analyze stories and characters
• Use concept mapping to show knowledge of a subject and its relationships
• Map locations of a story setting, historical events, geographical features
• Work with math manipulatives
• Use graphic organizers for just about everything. Introduce or recap a unit, analyze literature, explain cycles and sequences, pre-writing and brainstorming
  are just a few examples.
• Create storyboards for creative writing and literary analysis
• Dramatize or demonstrate the concept
• Draw pictures of events on a timeline
• Research using websites and videos
• Create picture cards for learning spelling words, math facts, etc.
• Create graphs and charts to show the results of research assignments or to answer workbook questions
• Construct models
• Create collages, posters, and murals of a concept or to summarize a unit
• Use computer software such as Eyewitness Encyclopedia

In my family, we have started out our day with headbands. On the front of the headband we attached a triangle resembling a slice of pizza pie or a circle resembling a whole pie. The kids colored in their favorite pizza or pie. Then wrote the word “Pi”, underneath that “3.14″, then “(the pi symbol).” We wore our headbands for the rest of the day, so that whenever we looked at one another, the “visual” learners had a reminder of Pi throughout the day.

We read a variety of stories involving the use of measuring a circle and all its measurements. At the same time, we happened to be studying ancient Egypt, so that we were reading a book about Archimedes at the time. Here is a list of books that relate to the study of Pi:

• Sir Cumference and Dragon of Pi by Cindy Neuschwander
• Sir Cumference and the Isle of Immeter (diameter of a circle) by Cindy Neuschwander
• Sir Cumference and the First Round Table (circles) by Cindy Neuschwander
• Sir Cumference and the Sword in the Cone (cone’s dimensions) by Cindy Neuschwander
• Archimedes and the Door of Science by Jeanne Bendick (the chapters near the end of the book look at Archimedes’ mathematical studies)
• Piece of Pi: Wit-sharpening, Brain-bruising, Number-Crunching Activities with Pi by Naila Bokhari (activity book)
• The Joy of Pi by David Blatner (middle to high school range)
• A History of Pi by Petr Beckmann (high school) (reference to million years old earth on first page)

Part of our day we read books, writing a notebook page summarizing what we learned about Pi on the bottom half of a notebook page and on the top half, drawing diagrams and examples of using Pi in a formula. My younger son had a worksheet with a table to fill in as he measured the circumference, diameter, and radius of objects around the house. My older son had a similar table to complete, but had an extra column where he had to use Pi to calculate the different dimensions of various circular objects around the house. Some Pi activity worksheets can be found at EnchantedLearning.com and EdHelper.com.

Go to NoteBookingPages.com and obtain different notebooking pages to write your findings of Pi.

Other Pi activities can be found at the following websites:

• www.education-world.com/a_lesson/lesson/lesson335.shtml
• schoolwires.henry.k12.ga.us/1516101031153910823/blank/browse.asp?A=383&BMDRN=2000&BCOB=0&C=68630
• www.mobot.org/education/megsl/pi.html
• www.exploratorium.edu/pi/
• www.teachpi.org/activities.htm

If you want to have your kids do a Pi lapbook, join Live and Learn Press’s Yahoo group and receive a free wonderful lapbook at LiveandLearnpress.com.

Other families have members compete with one another of who can memorize the most digits of Pi and keep a record in the days leading up to March 14th.

You can end your Pi Day celebration like we did, by making a pizza (or ordering one) and taking its measurements using the formula. Enjoy your day making memories no one will forget!

1.) You can blame your child’s behavior and bad habits on his peers: they’re not his siblings.

2.) You can blame his teacher when your child is “behind:” you’re not the teacher.

3.) You would not have to grade papers or keep track of important educational documents or create a transcript.

4.) You would suddenly find yourself having more in common with the people you meet.

5.) You would be relieved of the responsibility to choose the best curriculum for your child.

6.) You could focus on your own personal hobbies or begin to work outside the home.

7.) You would substantially increase the likelihood of having a clean home if no one was in it all day.

8.) You could just complain about your child’s environment, teacher, peers, and curriculum instead of being personally responsible for changing or repairing it.

9.) Your public school tax dollars would finally be at work for your family.

10.) You could stop having to justify or prove that your educational choices could be at least as productive as the public alternative.

11.) You could read books that don’t use the word “education,” “Charlotte Mason,” “Trivium,” or “self-discipline” in them.

12.) You never again have to answer the question “What about socialization?”

• To make home schooling more enjoyable you should be flexible with time.  Remember, one of the main advantages of homeschooling is that your child need not be bound to the normal school schedules. Why ignore this by applying strict rules and schedules?

• Keep a simple lifestyle and make homeschooling a part of it. This way you will not have to worry too much about the timings. But make sure your child is spending the required amount of time on studying.

• Even though you keep your timings flexible, try to follow a routine.

• Consider the temperament of your particular child and how they adapt to new subjects and changes in topics.  Rather than rushing into a new topic, ease into it. Start with giving your child an overview of what they are about to learn.  This will also set their focus to the coming information and increase retention.  Also, spend more time on topics that the child is struggling with.

• Keep your living areas neat. When homeschooling, there is no particular place of study. Any place in the house can be used to study. It may be the kitchen table, the couch or even the bed. Keep them clean and easily accessible at all times.

• It is very important to have a proper mindset when it comes to homeschooling. Both you and your child should have a proper attitude towards this. Set your child up with the recognition that learning and study are important disciplines, as well as a privilege.  Learning need not be formalised, but it should be valued.

• To make learning more fun, first cover the main topic. Then you can spend time enjoying the post sessions with games and talks about the subject. You can incorporate a lot of studies into the extra curricular activities.

• Have all your resources organised. Make sure you can access your resources, such as pencils, papers, crayons, and paint brushes, when you need them. If you are unorganised, your child will spend time looking for something and get distracted form the main topic of study.

• Always have enough time for extra curricular activities like arts and crafts. Children really enjoy this time and you should make sure you are nurturing their creative side.

• Whenever you find time, try to make learning fun. You need to make sure your kids are enjoying their studies. Share in reading aloud and spend time together researching new things. If you saw an article about a spider spend more time researching more about it.

• You need to be prepared for new schedules and new ways of homeschooling as your kid grows. The same methods you used to make learning fun for a 5 year old may not be as effective on a 12 year old. You need to spend enough time with them to make sure you and your kids are on the same page when it comes to homeschooling.

• Finally, don’t lose track of what is being taught. You should be able to spend some time with your children making things fun while at the same time you should keep track of what must be taught next.

If you spend enough time with your kids and have good homeschooling principles learning can be fun. Both you and your child can have a great time homeschooling.

Preschool-aged children should be doing a wider variety of household chores.  In our home, I keep my preschoolers’ chore list short and simple, but they have come a long way in learning to clean up after themselves.

Not too long ago, I was still helping my four-year-olds get dressed in the morning.  That was one of the first tasks to be put on their chore chart!  I thought if I made it a “chore”, and that if doing chores would earn them a special reward, then they would be more motivated to get themselves dressed in the morning, and I was right.

Another chore I have my preschoolers do is put their dishes in the sink after they eat, including scraping their plates into the garbage can first.  The first couple of times I had to remind them to do it after they ate, but very quickly it became a new habit for them and they started doing it without even thinking about it.

Young children have a way of making your home look like a tornado tore through it.  Picking up all their toys day after day gets really tiring, and some days I just want to give up.  I don’t make my boys pick up every single toy laying around the house, but every afternoon I have them do a general cleanup to get most of their toys put away where they belong.  If you label containers for them, this exercise is also a great way for teaching them simple words as they look for the correct container to put away their toys.

At night time my boys put on their own pajamas and brush their own teeth.  There are many rinses available that make brushing teeth fun for kids… who wouldn’t want their teeth to turn blue!? My boys look forward to brushing their teeth every night.

Every night before bed my boys get to choose a small toy from a “treasure” box I put together to reward them for doing their chores.  This box is full of small plastic lizards, frogs, stickers, temporary tattoos, and other small toys.  You would think a child wouldn’t go to all that trouble just for a small temporary tattoo, but you would be surprised.  The novelty still hasn’t worn off for my kids, even after several months. They really look forward to picking out their treasure every night.

My main goal in choosing these simple chores for my children was to have them start doing the things for themselves that I do for them day after day.  It frees up more of my time for other household chores, and they are learning to take more responsibility for taking care of themselves.

Think about your own homeschooling journey. Actually, think about any skill you have today. What was involved in your learning process? Although perhaps being motivated by an inherent interest, need or desire, there’s a good chance someone you admired or felt was successful taught, mentored, or coached you to proficiency!

When I first began homeschooling, I sought out seasoned professionals. Some I consulted primarily for their experience and guidance; some became good friends. In all of them, I found an encouraging voice and a willingness to keep me going through the rough spots. Of course, my husband has always been my biggest cheerleader, but these other folks had the additional tools to help when I didn’t have a clue!

For a variety of reasons, not everyone who has experience is willing or able to offer help or lend a hand. If you’re struggling with “keeping on” in homeschooling, look for someone:

• who is willing to establish a relationship with you,
• who is willing to “shoot straight” with you and tell you the truth,
• who is already familiar with, or knows where to get information on, various homeschool approaches,
• who shares the same or similar ethics or morals as you.

A coach has “been there and done that” and is able and willing to pass on lessons learned so YOU don’t have to make the same mistakes!

So how and where can you find one? My first and biggest piece of advice is to take your time and don’t jump into any commitment. Finding a local support group will undoubtedly provide you with lots of potential candidates. Spend an initial amount of time with the person to see if the chemistry is right: there’s no value to be had in spending time and learning from someone whose approach or ethics you don’t agree with! Do your homework online as well, and look into the plethora of resources – websites, blogs, and articles – that can give you good advice on pre-planning and launching your own homeschool.

A good coach can provide you with a plan and help guide you to selecting a good program. A coach as a friend can also encourage you to be persistent in your endeavors, a necessary trait to develop to homeschooling for the long haul. And lastly, experienced coaches can help you find and use tools you can use, and ways you can use the talents you already have to help create and build the unique learning environment that’s best for you and your children.

Homeschooling is of course first and foremost a family journey. But don’t ignore the help and encouragement that can be yours by finding a good and experienced coach!

Ages Birth to Five

This article is the first of a four part series on how to teach a foreign language to your children (even if you don’t know the language yourself!).  For many children, this age range is the best time to start. Before you spend a lot of money on DVD’s, CD’s, “language learning systems” and masses of extra flash cards, take some time to think about your child and your goals for the language.

“They’re like little sponges.” From ages birth to 5 years old, this commonly heard phrase is extremely relevant when applied to acquiring a second language. You may not hear or see or “feel” like your child is progressing in the target language, but if you’re using steps listed in this article, just know that the introduction and exposure IS getting through, and it IS sticking, whether or not you can squeeze it back out of your little sponge! Motivation is Key You will see this heading in each of my series’ articles. Without motivation (real or imagined!) your child will not succeed in learning the language, and quite possibly could develop a barrier. But that’s the bad news. Read on for the good news!

Enthusiasm is Catching. The momentum from the very first lesson will carry you on, or not. If you are excited about learning new words, and find ways to use them, your child will be too! If you drag out a DVD, hit play, and then wash the dishes, your child will see the value (or lack of) of the language lesson, and will also lack a partner with whom to practice. If you learn the word “thank you” in German and then use it at snack time, with a smile, you may get the perfect response or at the very least a big grin! Either one lets you know progress has been made! You communicated in the target language!

What about Immersion? Most experts agree the best method at this age is complete immersion in the language. I agree, within context. If you just toss a child into the middle of Mexico, he will most likely tune out almost all the Spanish, except for the moment someone is offering him a cookie, or he wants or needs something. However, within context, any single word or phrase will stick with him, as long as it is meaningful. Keep it simple! In general, learn words your child is interested in! Look for curriculum or workbooks (inexpensive ones are fine – just be sure there is phonetic spelling along with the new words, or a CD) that include coloring, drawing, speaking, but few words in each list. Too many will overwhelm you both.

Still wondering?

Follow these steps:

1. Say the new word three times aloud. While you say it DO something – color the picture if it is a noun, or act it out, or touch the item in the room, if possible. Be very clear on the meaning of the word, but without translation.
2. Use the new word(s) again within the day.
3. Reinforce the words with the activity that fits your child best. Many books have pages to color, or suggestions for activities such as flash card games.
4. Move on. If just a word at a time, even if you feel the lesson’s word list hasn’t been completely mastered. Just review regularly by using the words you’ve learned.

Beware of:

• Presenting too many new words at once.
• CD songs or DVD’s without any other form of learning (present the language in as many forms as possible)
• Books without phonetic spellings drilling and memorizing (and then forgetting) anything that seems “hard” for your child. Focus on Fun!

Suzanne Gose (known by her students as Señora Gose) is a homeschooling mother of almost five children – baby number five is due this July. A former public school teacher, she currently teaches over 80 homeschooling students in weekly Spanish classes. She is also the author of the Flip Flop Spanish Workbooks and other language teaching tools. Visit her website at FlipFlopLearning.com.

Why Not Live on Campus During College?

According to Dr. Jeff Myers of Inspired Leadership, spending four impressionable years of life living closely with the world is similar to the immersion method of learning a foreign language. If parents are willing to have their child absorb the good, the bad, and the ugly along with academics, four years in a dorm is the way to go. Most parents feel that older teens still need daily mentoring, stabilizing family relationships, and spiritual answers to the questions that inevitably arise when studying academics presented through a secular filter. According to Anne Miller of the Home Educators Association of Virginia, whose four oldest children were attending college at the time of this writing, living at home keeps young people from developing a self-centered attitude as they continue to serve the family through helping with home chores and interacting with younger siblings.

Earning College Credit in High School

Students who are capable of undertaking challenging work can accumulate a year or more of college credit while still in high school. Traditional-school students take Advanced Placement (AP) classes, followed by an AP test, in order to place out of entry level courses in college, but homeschoolers can go a step farther and earn actual credit by taking a CLEP (College-Level Examination Program) test, rather than the AP exam.

Students can prepare for exams by doing extra study on their own, taking an AP or honors class (online or traditionally), or by participating in an advanced co-op. Advantages of earning college credit while still in high school include:

• Time – One 90-minute CLEP exam covers one or two semesters of a subject, and by taking several carefully selected exams, it is possible to shorten the time it takes to earn an associate’s or bachelor’s degree by a year or more.
• Money – The cost of earning 3-6 credits is about $75.
• Advanced placement – Instead of sitting through a basic class that covers material learned in high school, students can skip directly into more advanced and interesting classes.

Students who plan to use CLEP exams to get a jump start on college need to create a high school curriculum plan that includes advanced-level course material for subjects in which tests will be taken. These subjects will be recorded on the high school transcript as AP or honors courses, and students receive weighted grades (one extra grade point) for each class. College credit is awarded by the college the student attends in the future, and it is based upon a passing score on the CLEP exam. Not all colleges award credit for exams, so it is important to select a school that does.

Dual-credit classes are another way to get a jump start on college. To earn dual-credit, a student studies a subject in a community college class instead of a high school class, and earns both high school and college credit. Mature teens may be ready for the challenge of the classroom atmosphere, and taking dual-credit classes can provide a gradual transition into a more structured learning environment.

College From Home

If you have heard of the Swann family, you know the idea of college from home is not new. Each of the Swann’s many children was homeschooled, not only through college, but also through graduate school, receiving their master’s degrees at an age when most other teens are graduating from high school. This family used traditional correspondence courses for each level of schooling, and this is still possible, but the Internet has dramatically increased the number of options available. Students at home can participate in classes which include a variety of online elements, including virtual labs and real-time discussions. The degree earned at home is just as marketable as a degree earned on-campus, and it often comes with less spiritual risk.

Attending College While Living at Home

This final option is probably the most familiar – students attend a traditional college, but live at home, rather than on-campus. While this option limits the choice of a college to one within reasonable driving distance, it provides several advantages. In addition to being more economical than on-campus living, this option provides students with the familiar, supportive environment of home and family in which to process all the new information they are receiving. Second, they have instant access to spiritual, academic, or personal counseling from someone who knows and loves them, and who shares their spiritual worldview. Third, the presence of other family members of various ages with various needs helps to remind young people that they are not the center of the universe – self-centeredness can be a problem for students whose primary consideration is “my schedule, my classes, my choices.” And finally, this option enables students who are academically ready for college, but younger than traditional college age, to benefit from the home atmosphere while they mature.

Just because our teens are growing up, it isn’t necessary to follow the path of the world in their education. If we don’t want the results we see in the culture around us, we can change the input. The purpose of college is an education, resulting in a degree, and each family has many options for achieving that goal.

An Analogy to Help us Focus

Let’s use a simple analogy to help us see the problem more clearly. Think of yourself as the employer and of the child as the employee. Employees are expected to perform tasks within a time frame. If they do their work well, they keep their jobs and receive benefits. If they don’t, they’re fired. My boss expects me to come to work on time and to work when I get there. She doesn’t call me every half-hour to cheer me on or to remind me that I need to keep working. She doesn’t promise to buy me lunch if I work hard. She doesn’t even threaten that she will fire me if I don’t work. And she doesn’t call me names if I slack off (at least not that I’m aware of) or threaten to call my husband to squeal on me.

Apply the Analogy to Your Situation

Simply apply the analogy to your situation. You are the boss and you have the control. Your kids are expected to perform tasks within a time frame. If they don’t, they should suffer the consequences. Take some time to write out your expectations and some natural consequences for failure to comply. Don’t announce them. Don’t warn and hint. Simply fix them in your mind. The next time they pull a passive-aggressive stunt, let them and don’t say a word. Then, when it is time, follow through with the consequence.

The First Example

For example, Sally is supposed to complete her language arts and math before lunch. By noon, she hasn’t even started her math. What do you do?

You prepare and eat a fantastic, delicious lunch (make it superbly out of the ordinary), but eat it quietly and alone. When she comes to the kitchen, you calmly say, “I’m sorry, Sally. I guess you missed lunch. Your work isn’t done. As soon as you finish, let me know and I’ll make you a snack.”

It’s important that you say this with no accusing tone. It should be a statement of fact, delivered in a loving way. You are genuinely sorry for her. Don’t gloat, and make sure the snack is nutritious but boring. If you think it will be hours before she will be done and you don’t want her going that long without food, then have a pre-made snack ready on a teeny, tiny plate and let her take it to her desk so that she can nibble as she works.

This may sound horrible, but you won’t have to do this more than once or twice. Trust me; it works.

The Second Example

Another example is that you ask Sally to clean her room. She spends the afternoon goofing off and doesn’t begin cleaning. You make a mental note, but say nothing. You go about your business (remember, it is not your problem). Later that day, when it’s time for her to watch her favorite show or go outside, etc, you say, “I’m sorry, Honey, you can’t do that today because you didn’t obey me earlier when I asked you to clean your room. ”

Then follow through—no negotiating, no backing down, not even if she flies to her room and frantically does the job as fast as she can to make up for it. The consequence is not for neglecting to do the job; it’s for not obeying you when you first gave the instructions. A wise person once said that anything less than instant obedience is disobedience. And consequences must follow disobedience every time without fail.

When you start to take back control, expect resistance in the form of whining, accusing and arguing. Whatever you do, DO NOT DISCUSS THE MATTER OR ARGUE WITH YOUR CHILD. This is the fastest way to lose ground. You are above that.

A Second Analogy

Can you imagine being stopped by a police officer and debating the terms of your ticket? How about promising to drive slower to cancel the fine? Can’t you see the cop kicking your tires, screaming or begging you to take the ticket? How about stopping other motorists and whining, “She never wants to take this ticket!” How ridiculous! Police officers are in authority and their calmness and confidence show it.

You are in authority in your home. Be calm and confident. Don’t back down, don’t threaten, warn, discuss, debate and don’t argue. There is something pathetic about an adult arguing with a young child. It demonstrates weakness to the point of helplessness and desperation. Confidence and calm inspire admiration and invite others to follow and obey. Remember, you have complete control of your kids’ lives. Simply follow through and watch the change.

You Will all be Happier

You will be happier and so will your kids when you regain control of your home because your home will become a peaceful place again. None of us is happy with anarchy.
