He ...ah Jeanne! Ron's looking after that dept:)<br />He is / will be reading "selected" stories and poems from "Henry Lawson an illustrated treasury" illustrated by Dee Huxley. You are right, the language is rough / coarse in a lot of his stuff so Ron will probably only read a very small amount from this.Joyfulmumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01888086629467112175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-10772765520545712632010-08-13T08:15:39.884+10:002010-08-13T08:15:39.884+10:00What book of Henry Lawson are you using, Rosemary?...What book of Henry Lawson are you using, Rosemary?

If I had any further children to homeschool, I would definitely look at this one. Lauren and I loved 'living' books for history etc when she homeschooled and I like the way this curriculum is set out. I noticed it only goes up to Grade 8. At least you have a few years until you need to find something else! lol.Amandahttp://www.amandassecretgarden.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-55945310568354595572010-08-12T21:38:20.192+10:002010-08-12T21:38:20.192+10:00Isn't it fabulous that you all can share ideas...Isn't it fabulous that you all can share ideas in regards to home schooling:)Finding Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09882774610725490491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-70225430881925574172010-08-12T15:23:35.908+10:002010-08-12T15:23:35.908+10:00Clara, yes, I was thinking of you when I did this ...Clara, yes, I was thinking of you when I did this post:)Joyfulmumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01888086629467112175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-14857481425580935292010-08-11T20:40:59.334+10:002010-08-11T20:40:59.334+10:00Thanks for posting about this, Rosemary - I'd ...Thanks for posting about this, Rosemary - I'd been wondering what you're doing for your homeschooling. It was interesting to see what you're doing - some of your resources sound very interesting. We're doing a totally different program, but I'm taking it as I go and might try some other products as the years pass... :) Might even get some ideas from your curriculum!! :)Clarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14304537325454972400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-46669379328351375642010-08-11T19:36:12.377+10:002010-08-11T19:36:12.377+10:00Jo, I just came back on here to "edit" m...Jo, I just came back on here to "edit" my post as oops, I forgot to include maths and Bible! (embarassed smile here). Maths does not come with this curriculum so I am using Singapore Maths and we are doing a devotional that came with this curriculum and another one of our own. I will edit this post to reflect that:)<br />Ganeida, yes, we are truly enjoying home schooling (both her and I)!<br />Amanda, I didn't realise you only home schooled for one year. That was interesting to hear!Joyfulmumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01888086629467112175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-14474999269377856842010-08-11T19:09:16.032+10:002010-08-11T19:09:16.032+10:00This sounds very interesting - just one question,...This sounds very interesting - just one question, I didn't see any maths, is this taught as part of other subjects?Finding Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09882774610725490491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-65487984326640085912010-08-11T18:43:59.814+10:002010-08-11T18:43:59.814+10:00How exciting for you!
