Eat Your Science Homework {Ann McCallum Books Review}

Something good to eat is always a good way to help children solidify their learning.

Recently the Schoolhouse Review Crew were introduced to Ann McCallum Books.  Ann is the author of a nifty set of books in the Eat your ... series and Nathaniel and I have been working our way through Eat Your Science Homework.

There are currently three books in the Eat Your Homework series
  1. Eat Your US History Homework  
  2. Eat Your Science Homework
  3. Eat Your Math Homework.
 Ann also has a blog where she shares recipes and encouragement on how to Eat your way through a variety of topics.

What we received
  • ISBN: 978-1-57091-299-3
  • Published by: Charlesbridge
  • Format: Paperback
  • Copyright Date: 2009, 2014
  • Specifications: Teacher: 48 pages
  • By: Ann McCallum
  • Illustrated by: Leeza Hernandez
  • Awarded: Junior Library Guild Selection 
The book is divided up into:
  • Introduction - Here you will discover all about delicious chemistry in the kitchen.
  • Safety instructions - We learned about safety in our lab. The tricks of the trade list was helpful for Nathaniel. It was good to read these.  I realized that some things I had not actively told him before and had assumed he knew.
  • Six experiments - Each experiment covers a particular topic. We love the creative names for each one: Atomic Popcorn Balls,  Density Dressing and Veggie Sticks, Invisable Ink Snack Pockets, Loop, Whorl and Arch Cookies, Sedimentary Pizza Lasagna and Black Hole Swallow-Ups
    • The topic is introduced and explained carefully.  The jargon is introduced in context and fully explained.
    • Next the recipe is presented.  There is a before you begin section which covers time, oven temperature and difficulty. An ingredients list followed by the step by step method.  The author coaches the student carefully in what to do in each step. 
    • The next page is a conclusion to the topic page.  We enjoyed reading these as they give some relevant information, interesting historical note in relation to the topic and concluding words.
  • Review - This is a summary of what you have learned as you've worked your way through the book.
  • Glossary - A concise list of scientific terms used throughout the book with clear explanations of each word.
  • Index -
How we used it



After reading the introduction page on Density, Dressing and Veggie Sticks chapter it was time to gather our supplies.


This lesson involved no heat so I left Nathaniel up to following the directions in the method.  He enjoyed watching what happened as he added each ingredient to the bottle and surmising what he thought might happen when he added the ingredients.


 We learned some new technical jargon: immiscible, miscible and density. We also did some follow up experiments to solidify the topic of density.  The results were edible and Daddy now has some new blue salad dressing to enjoy!


You can download a fabulous Teachers Guide for Eat Your Science HOMEWORK.


Recommended Age Range
  • 7-10 years old

Over All I thought ...
We've enjoyed working our way through this beautiful book. Every single double page spread is beautifully illustrated and contains thoughtful information.  I appreciated how the author spoke directly to the child and did not assume that the student knew something.  Every concept was clearly explained and scientific terms were presented clearly and concisely.  Each experiment was followed up with a Science Sampler which ranged from finding elements present in our home to interesting information on famous scientists over the ages.

This is a fun book to add to your science routine at home and the best part is you can EAT your experiments!

Math, Science, Biology and History in the High School Years

Welcome to the third edition of this years Homeschool High School Blog Hop. This months topic covers a wide variety of subjects.

We will be looking at Math, Science, Biology and History. I have shared in depth on these topics here over the years so I will be sharing a short introduction to each subject area and linking to my other posts where you will be able to read more about my in depth thoughts on the particular topic at hand.

I will also share some links to FREE curriculum you can access from around the web and links to my posts introducing curriculum from around the web to get you started on your research.

One of the things I realise now in retrospect is that you do not need to change the way you teach when you reach the high school years.  I was under the impression that I needed to change a whole heap of things because my students were now home schoolers and this in turn caused my children stress as well as myself.  Enjoy the journey and allow your students to set the pace for the change.  As they grow and change so will your methods and requirements slowly change along with your relationship.  It is far easier on you and your student to allow this change to naturally occur.

Things to consider before the high school years
  • Research your options while they are in the primary school years so that you have a clear pathway before you.  The high school years arrive far quicker than you realise.  Use the first four to five years of homeschool to research your options and plan ahead.  Without a plan you will end up floundering.
  • Be clear on your expectations. This is imperative for both you and your student. It's important to know what you want completed in order to graduate from high school at home.
  • Have an understanding of the level of maths required to tackle different areas in the high school sciences.
  • Research and save for more expensive items such as a microscope.  Do you have to have a microscope ?  No but it is a great hands on learning tool that makes the sciences come alive in your home.
  • Find out where to purchase the items you need to do the practical labs.
  • Consider the scope and sequence before changing curriculum or you might end up repeating what you have already done.
  • Get to know your student and what their long term study goals are and work towards those. Make it a priority to achieve what they need to accomplish their tertiary goals in the science arena. 
  • Research your State/Country requirement for graduating High School.
 


Math in High School

One of the things I insisted on my children completing was math up to the level of Algebra 1 and Geometry. Needless to say this was one of their biggest complaints!  Why do we have to do that Mom? was a question often heard in our home during the high school years. Math is a subject that is imperative in helping our students develop higher order thinking. 

Math seems to be one of those topics within the homeschool environment that often comes up in conversation. As homeschooling parents we need to be-careful that we do not transmit our personal negative experience of math at school onto our children.  During our high school years I came to realize this with my first two children that as long as we moved at their pace they were able to easily learn what I found to be difficult at school.

In our home I chose to use  Teaching Textbooks during the high school years. It's like having a personal tutor on call 24/7! We would work through the lesson in the book. Answer the questions. Pop in the disk and watch the tutor teach the specific sums we got wrong. I like the fact that they don't assume you know the steps. The tutor breaks down the sum into step by step and explains each step as they go through the complete sum.  

Before we transitioned to TT we used to call on a friend who was a high school math teacher to help us with any sums we became stuck with.

Here on the blog I've shared

For me one of the defining moments of understanding teaching math came after I read the article History and Research on the Teaching of Math I highly recommend you read this article before you make a decision on your math curriculum.

Scope and Sequence
When looking at changing math programs remember to take  scope and sequence into account.

  • Scope refers to the content.  In other words these are the topics covered (A to Z)
  • Sequence is the order in which the scope is taught (IE the order in which things are covered within the program)
It is important to know this about your math product or you might end up redoing math your child is already familiar with or you might end up skipping a whole lot of important content that your child needs in order to succeed at math.

Science & Biology in High School

"Can I teach high school science?  NO. As your student gets older, your role changes from teacher to fellow learner." Dr. Jay L. Wile
Define: Science

  • The word science comes from the Latin "scientia," meaning knowledge especially knowledge based on reproducible data.
  • Science is the systematic knowledge of the physical or material world gained through observation and experimentation. 
From this definition we can see that science is not solely about science labs and microscopes, formulas and chemicals it's all about the world around us. The sciences need not fill you with fear the high school years can be a wonderful time of learning alongside your students and discovering amazing things together.

History in High School

The story of life is one of my passions.  I loved history in high school and I've grown to love it even more especially after studying it for two years chronologically with Timothy and Jane in junior high.  In fact I loved the experience so much I am doing it for a second time with Nathaniel now and am planning a third trip through with more of a Charlotte Mason focus when he is in High School.

his·to·ry noun \ˈhis-t(ə-)rē\

  1. tale, story 
  2. a : a chronological record of significant events (as affecting a nation or institution) often including an explanation of their causes
    b : a treatise presenting systematically related natural phenomena
    c : an account of a patient's medical background
    d : an established record  
  3. a branch of knowledge that records and explains past events
Studying history in the high school years is an adventure in itself.  Students ask interesting questions and it's a time for deeper understanding.  It's a marvelous time for digging deeper and comparing notes and seeing the cause and effect more clearly of the different things that are happening concurrently in the world.

There is no need to change the method you use to teach history.  Keep using whatever is working well for you.  Once again watch for the scope and sequence if you want to change curriculum.  The source texts become a little more complex but generally speaking history is an adventure in discovery!

Science Unit Studies For Homeschoolers and Teachers {Review}

Hands on experiments have never been my thing.  I'm one of those students that is happy to sit at the back of the class and observe.  I don't need to touch to learn.  I'm happy to read about an experiment in a book and watch someone else do the practical. Nathaniel on the other hand loves to try new things and look and touch to learn.

Enter in Funtastic Unit Studies the creator of  Science Unit Studies For Homeschoolers and Teachers. This A4 size book is a treasure trove for homeschool mothers like me out there.  It's 200 pages of science from home goodness. Science is best learned with plenty of hands on application and in this book Susan Kilbride has provided 20 chapters of hands on learning and explanation set out in an easy to teach format. 


What we received
How we used it
This book is easy to use.  The table of contents is divided by topic followed by the recommended age for the topic and the page number.
A friend of mine has this neat molecule set that I've been itching to play with so when I discovered that Chapter 13 was all about Atoms and Molecules I decided we could jump in there.

You do NOT need a fancy molecule set to work on this unit.  Susan recommends marshmallows and toothpicks!  Shhh don't tell Nathaniel he missed out on consuming delicious marshmallows ...

After a one paragraph introduction on what molecules were we had a look at the supplied periodic table and then built some water molecules (one red and two white balls), Carbon Dioxide (One black and two red balls), Methane (One black and four white) and Carbon Tetrachloride (One Black and four Chlorine ball).  It was so much fun.


Next we explored microscopes and how they work in Chapter 14. This was so much fun rediscovering the world around us through magnification.  It's been a few years since we used this microscope so we've had to blow the dust off of it and find the slides but it's been so good to use again.

We also took a little detour in Chapter 15 Chemistry is Fun! and learned a little about polymers.  The instruction was to build a paperclip chain.  (I couldn't find the box of paper clips so we improvised with these clips).  Here Nathaniel is holding a chain of 10 clips.  Each clip represents a glucose molecule and the ten clipped together represent starch.


For the Parent
  • Each chapter begins with a materials needed for this unit list. 98% of the items were everyday items found in and around our home and the kitchen. 
  • If there were any items a little out of the norm Susan has noted where to purchase the items from.
  • If there is a form or pattern required for an activity these are supplied in the chapter for you to photocopy and use within your homeschool.

Recommended Age Range
  • 4 to 13

Over All I thought ...
This is one of those great resource books to have on hand. I love the simplicity and hands on uncomplicated experiments that are presented in the book.  I like the fact that Science Unit Studies For Homeschoolers and Teachers is written in easy to understand conversation with includes the use of the correct scientific jargon along with understandable definitions.  We're enjoying exploring the world around us through this short science unit studies.

Visual Learning Systems {Review}

Over the last year I have been aiming at a delight directed approach in our home education journey.  One of the things I have discovered is that Nathaniel loves all manner of visual media both in our homeschool and leisure time at home.  His second passion is science.

Recently Visual Learning Systems blessed our home school with Digital Science Online: Elementary Edition (Grades K-5). We have been really enjoying all they have to offer us. The best part is that the lessons are both visual and practical in nature.

Visual Learning Systems offer digital video science subscriptions for primary, elementary and and high school levels covering a range of scientific subjects in the areas of  biology, earth, life, physical and health. You're able to access the video lessons on multiple platforms including your iPad and smart TV.

What we received

What happens when you log in
Student Interface - Video Tab
Student Log-in Page
In the primary level we had access to:
  1. Physical - 21 lessons
  2. Earth - 22 lessons
  3. Life - 18 lessons
  4. Health - 3 lessons
In the elementary level we had access to:
  1. Physical - 20 lessons
  2. Earth - 17 lessons
  3. Life - 25 lessons
You can view a comprehensive breakdown of each unit study on the Visual Learning Elementary Edition page.  Click on any of the units of study and you will be taken to a separate page with a breakdown of that lesson along with a sample of the video lesson. 

In the student area you are also able to print off the following for each lesson:
  1. Pre Tests
  2. Post Tests
  3. Video Review
  4. Vocabulary
  5. Exercises 
Teacher Interface - Teacher Guides Tab
Teachers Log-in Page
Teachers have a separate log in area which has the same interface as the student log in with a few extra support materials in the teachers guide section.   You have the option of downloading the full guides and printing them or just using them online on your own digital device.  The guides are divided into four areas:
  1. Introducing the video
  2. Student activities
  3. Learning Objectives 
  4. Video Script
How we used it
Navigating Visual Learning Systems was really easy and therefore one of the reasons I enjoy using the program.  At the beginning of the week I would log in to the teachers area, look through the topics available and select one that I wanted to pursue for the week.

We have been using Apologia Exploring Creation with Astronomy, so our first port of call was Earth's Nearest Neighbours.

In the teachers area you can look at each of the four areas separately via a short-cut link or download the instructors guide. The guide is in PDF format containing all the objectives, worksheets, answer keys, practical hands on activities and a video script.

As a teacher you can choose how many or few worksheets you would like your students to do.  For students who really enjoy worksheets there are plenty to choose from.  In this unit we started off with the pre-test. The purpose of the pre-tests is for your student to discover how much they know before watching the video.


We then watched the lesson. Each lesson is presented in a highly visual format with beautiful graphics, video animations and camera work from around the globe.
Student Interface - Images Tab
You have the option of printing and using a Video Review form with the students along with the video.  Each time there is a 'You decided ...' question during the video there is a space in the form for the student to fill in.   The video's were in high definition and we were able to view them in full screen mode.

After each presentation we used the post-test sheets as a recap and narration opportunity to reinforce the learning we had just completed.  Some days we did it straight after the video lesson and sometimes we used it the next day.

There were two hands on activities for this particular unit. The first one was really interesting. We made a to scale Solar System model. This involved using play dough and modeling each planet and the sun. We then went outside and lay the planets out according to the distances on the sheet. The distance from the Sun to Neptune was 90 meters. It was a great visual about the vastness of our solar system. Each of the planets were to scale too and varied in mm from .10 to 2.9 and the sun was 2.8 cm. We also did a hands on activity about the Shape of an Orbit.




There was also a vocabulary and writing activity available for this unit but I decided that Nathaniel had done enough writing.

Cost of Visual Learning Systems
Visual Science is available as an annual subscription for homeschooling families. These prices are for up to 8 students per family.
  • Elementary edition (grades K-5): $99.00
  • Secondary edition (grades 6-12): $99.00 
  • FREE trials are available on request.
Recommended Age Range
  • Grades K-5
  • Grades 6-12

Nathaniel and I are both enjoying the twaddle free science lessons presented by Visual Learning Systems.  The detailed visually enhanced lessons are a pleasure to use and to watch. The longer we use Visual Learning the more I appreciate the meaty content supplied.  All the work is done for me.  I don't need to go looking for YouTube clips or Notebooking pages they are all supplied.  All the work is done for me.  The program can be used as a stand alone program or as a supplemental course to enhance your student's scientific course of study.  I highly recommend that you apply for a FREE trial today and try out the course for yourself.

I also loved the fact that I haven't needed any specialised equipment to do any of the hands on science activities.

Year 4 Curriculum {NBTS}


It's week 2 of the Not Back to School blog hop being hosted here and at Our Worldwide Classroom.  This week we are sharing our proposed curriculum for 2015.  Don't forget to meet some of our amazing homeschool blogging families in Australia.

Our plan is to take 12 - 18 months with the following books.

Sonlight Core B

This year my aim with Nathaniel is to add in some more Charlotte Mason educational principles.  This is a learning journey for both of us as in the past I have followed Sonlight and the Well Trained Mind.  I really enjoy teaching / learning history chronologically so my aim is to complete Sonlight Core B this year and flow into Core C.


Readers
Read Alouds
Last year we did not get to most of our read alouds due to taking the scenic route and reading aloud a whole raft of other books so this year we plan on doing two read aloud periods a day.  In the morning doing Core B and afternoon Core C


 Fine Arts
  • We will continue using The World's Greatest Composers by Confessions of a Homeschooler.
  • The Classical Kids Collection Vol 1 & 2. These are produced by The Children's Group and cover the lives of eight famous composers.
  • Classical Composers Monthly as a supplement to whichever composer we are studying.
  • We will continue with The World's Greatest Artists Vol 1.  We have already studied Claude Monet {FREE Resource List} and will continue and learn about the other seven artists in the unit.
  • We did Shipwrecked earlier in the year and really enjoyed it so we will work our way through Bible Stories by See the Light
  • In an ideal world I would love to do some Hymn study too.  I have not settled on anything.  I think we might alternate Composer Study with Hymn Study.
  • We will be meeting up with a family each week where we will continue to learn to play the recorder as well as work our way through drawing lessons from the Drawing Textbook.
  • I am also in the process of reseaching the Charlotte Mason philosophy on the Fine Arts.
  • This year we also intend on attending a few MSO concerts and a ballet concert.
Sonlight Core C

History
This year we will continue reading Story of The World Volume One and using the Activity Guide which goes alongside it.  Core B and C also do History chronologically so I will be consulting my manuals and using the recommended read alouds and spines from Sonlight.

Geography
 I haven't decided yet upon a resource to use.  Here are a few I'm contemplating using

 I think we may continue using Expedition Earth: A Journey through God's World.

I would like to also complete  Trail Guide to World Geography  This particular package is my all time favourite.

I saw a review on Wonder Maps and really like the look of this program.  Have any of you used it or seen it ?

Math


Logic

Science

For science we will choose books from our very well stocked home library this year and will be working through Exploring Creation with Astronomy from Apologia.  We will be using the Astronomy Junior Notebooking Journal.  Once we have completed this we will begin Exploring Creation with Botany.

For hands on Science we shall continue with Science Activities, Vol. 1 
Language Arts
Composition
We will be continuing with WriteShop Primary this year.  This program is an excellent way to introduce composition to reluctant writers and primary school aged students.



Spelling
Last year I began using Logic of English with Sir N and was really impressed with his progress.  This year we will continue our lessons with the goal of completing the program.


Vocabulary
This is not synonymous with spelling. We will continue to work though Spelling Workout starting with book B this year. I am also compiling a list of classical books we will be using as read alouds throughout the year ahead.

Grammar
I haven't yet settled on a grammar program.  I have two books I'm considering.  The first being English for The Thoughtful Child by Mary Hyde OR Karen Andreola's Simply Grammar: An Illustrated Primer.

Narration
This is something I want to focus more on this year with Sir N.  There are so many incredible benefits to the student in developing this skill.

Second Language
This year we will begin studying two other languages: Latin and French
For Latin I will be using two programs Prima Latina and  Getting Started with Latin
For French we will begin using  Rosetta Stone

No doubt due to our eclectic tendencies and as I learn more about applying a Charlotte Mason approach to our home education this will change.  I will update this list as I make changes to suit our learning.

Blessings
Chareen
This list is current as of 9 February 2015


It's your turn.
Looking forward to reading your plans for the year ahead.

Science at Home {Poppins Book Nook}

This months theme for the Poppins Book Nook is To the Laboratory!

I don't know about you but when I see the word laboratory I see lots of dollar signs and dead things to dissect ...  I do NOT like dissecting things (I am very grateful for a husband who is willing to step in and help me do this ) and as a single income family dollars are very precious.

Today I would like to share with you some of the books we use to explore science at home.

Books we enjoy
As you can see from this list we really enjoy using Usborne science books here.  They are twaddle free and the illustrations serve to enhance our learning.

Sonlight has produced a fun DVD ( Discover & Do Level 1 DVD ) which Nathaniel really enjoys watching and I find useful for the days when I really don't want to get hands on science in my kitchen.

Magic Schoolbus books are a wonderful addition to your science book library. Join Miss Frizzle for many fun filled scientific journeys.

We have also enjoyed The Berenstain Bears' Big Book of Science and Nature
Topics covered
On the WWW
On YouTube
Our Microscope
You do not NEED a microscope to enjoy science at home but if you are able to save up and purchase one it opens up a whole new world for you and your children to enjoy.    A few years back I spent a long time researching microscope options and settled on the Sonlight's Variable Voltage Microscope. You can read all about it's technical specifications and watch a YouTube walk through.

If you are living in Australia you can not order in science specimens they will not be allowed past customs.  If you are wanting to purchase dissection specimens you can order them from Southern Biological in Melbourne.  They also stock a full range of items for science use at home and they also ship to New Zealand.

In the USA I highly recommend Sonlight's science resources and the resource kits from Rainbow Resources.

If you are looking for something to keep in your handbag then have a look at the Discovery Scope.

FREE for You
Jill from over at Enchanted Homeschooling Mom has made this FREE Poppins Book Nook pack for you To The Laboratory Theme.

  • An official interactive Poppins Book Nook bookmark for this month’s theme
  • This month’s Passport pages to add to your lapbook
  • Several lapbook elements centered around The Laboratory.
  • Reading response writing prompt

We have enjoyed the company of our science resources this month.  You are invited to blog and share one of your book adventures on the theme of To the Laboratirt! and join in our link up below.

Looking forward to reading your adventures
Blessings
