Thanks!

Very thourough. I found the information useful and it helped me prepare the content of my lessons. It was not accessible for 1st grade students, however.

Dear Natgy, thank you for the useful feedback. I do try to make a point of mentioning that the majority of my unit can be adapted to older or younger learners. This makes it more cost-effective for families with children of varying ages, and of course it saves time for me when compiling the unit to throw in something for everyone :)

Just as an aside.... At the time of sourcing information and creating this unit, I was working with Aiden, who was 5 at the time. He is now 7 and much more able to work independently. He is stronger in some areas than others, for example his reading, comprehension and word recognition is very advanced, whereas his writing still looks like something the kitten played with :)

This book was extremely thorough. I was looking for a cute book on dragonflies and it was a bit too heavy for my needs. It is a great resource for a higher grade level.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Grades Taught:

Pre-K, Kindergarten, First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Homeschooler

Subject Area:

English Language Arts, Social Studies - History, Other (Specialty)

No formal Teacher Training, I work in social media, am a webmaster with a number of websites and blogs, and have a background and extensive experience in criminal and civil law, which I have recently returned to after a 5 year absence. I am a homeschooling mom who opted for homeschooling as a result of circumstances in our country. I have not looked back. I have attended many online courses to assist me in my educational journey. My materials are utilized through countries of Africa as an alternative to formal educational publications which are prohibitively expensive! I am fond of compiling unit studies and thematic units which I am able to adapt and use for each of the three children, now 6, 11 and 13 respectively. I make extensive use of public domain resources and include references to reputable websites for extension exercises and lesson plans. I am a published author.
