Connecting Science pre-k, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, grade

Another great CM style resource for science comes from a company called Teacher Created Resources. It’s called Connecting Science. They use literature, picture books to explain a science concept and then list several fun activities to reinforce the concept. Teaching Science concepts never got easier for primary grades pre-K through 5th.

Several book titles and topics to choose from. I really like this book they its very user friendly for both teacher and child. I was struggling with when to start Apologia materials this year or next – then I found my first Connecting Science Book at a book sale. For primary and younger ages these manuals are perfect. The newer versions may not include the literature you would have to check. However they do offer a thematic version for almost all the Magic School Bus series. These books are much better than I originally expected as a homeschooler.

You can find titles for yourself through the link below.

School House Rock 3’s and Zero still lots of Fun.

PharmaOmega Learn is designed for school-aged children who need omega-3 to help them focus and do their best in school.

Music is such a fun way to learn math! Learn anything…

Did you know you can find old and newer school house rock videos on Youtube? It’s not the same as having your own collection but it sure makes you reminisce back to the days of singing these tunes. I am sure once you see some of these, like so many of us you will be hooked and want the whole collection. But if your strapped for fund at least you can be safe viewing these videos from this website.

I don’t recommend you sending your kids to youtube unattended by a parent. Parents should always search first and view first. That’s why I post good videos on my site. Don’t get me wrong, I love Youtube it’s got some awesome videos on it, anything you could possibly want. Yet therein lies the problem. You don’t have to worry about clicking the a video here and having it turn out to have inappropriate content.

School House Rock, Magic number 3:

Learn how to multiply and count by 3’s through songs.

This video is unofficially claimed as the first Schoolhouse rock video.

Find Catholic Curriculum with Free shipping

Looking at Catholic Curriculum for next year. I would like to recommend a company called Sacred Heart Books and Gifts.[singlepic id=17 w=320 h=240 mode=web20 float=right]

I found this company last year when I was looking for Saxon Math 2. I really like them, maybe it was because I have a devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus that drew me to the Sacred Heart Books website or maybe it was where they are located, having come from the Midwest. I recently discovered that they are now carrying materials for Catholic Charlotte Mason users. They also have curriculum supplies available for Mother of Divine Grace and many others. There website is dedicated to families and especially one single income families; they keep their prices low! You can find discount prices on Catholic Curriculum from their website all year long. They offer FREE SHIPPING on orders over $25.00 and less than $5.00 on all orders under $25.00. That is a pretty awesome deal for those concerned with purchasing books yet still having funds enough to cover the sometime high cost of shipping.

Before going to Amazon to buy your books check Sacred Heart Books and Gifts out. Their prices are very reasonable. You know the books are new and the best part is FREE SHIPPING with orders over $25.00. You are also helping a fellow Catholic Servant who is to helping Catholic home schoolers.
