Pumpkin Patches & Educational Tours

9/26/2017

0 Comments

 
It might be warm and there aren't many trees changing colors here on island, but autumn is here and the holidays will be here before we know it! 

There are two farms that I'm aware of that offer pumpkin patches for the fall here on Oahu: Waimanalo Country Farms and Aloun Farms!  Both of these farms have educational tour (a.k.a. field trips) opportunities as well!

Waimanalo Country Farms is a smaller scale, family owned and operated farm on the Windward side. In addition to the pumpkins, they have a sunflower maze (currently blooming as of this post, so I hear), hayrides, homemade lemonade, and more.
​
Aloun Farms is a larger farm located in Kapolei with a popular annual "pumpkin patch festival". There are hayrides, pony rides, food, picture booths, sweet corn, sunflowers, string beans, and more. Last I read, you can donate two trash bags of gently used clothing and you can get free entry and a chance to win Wet 'n Wild tickets. Donate to Hawaii Food Bank and get a free mini mix pumpkin!

Review: Carole P. Roman (books)

9/12/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
The ravenous readers in my household could live in a library or bookstore, if only given the chance. They adore books of all kinds and educational fiction (like historical fiction or strong moral, ethical, or lesson-based fiction) is one of the most effective ways for them to learn and remember something, particularly with my oldest. Non-fiction books are great, too, but books that make something humorous, personal, and/or relatable are the ones that remain the most memorable. 

Some books that we've recently received for review have been: Oh Susannah: It's in the Bag, If You Were Me and Lived in... Colonial America, and If You Were Me and Lived in... Ancient Greece, all of which were written by Carole P. Roman.

About the Books & Our Experience

​Carole P. Roman is an award-winning, independent author who has written over fifty books for kids. She has penned several different series, including some with historical and/or cultural topics and books at nursery/preschool or early reader levels.

It's worth noting that the author's website has a link to "worksheets & resources", which are mostly links to lists of questions for kids to answer after reading some of the books. She has them in a blog post and they can be highlighted and printed that way. 

The "If You Were Me and Lived In... ____" books which we received were bursting at the seams with colorful illustrations, all kinds of relevant facts and details, and a glossary of terms. They are paperback but seem relatively solid with somewhat thick, glossy pages. Both Big Sis and Lil' Sis read along with me as we explored, compared, and contrasted the two time periods.
​
Picture
Picture
Our history focus right now is early American through modern times, so the If You Were Me and Lived in... Colonial America book covers just the right time frame to supplement our studies. However, with the amount of information that is packed into this little book, this might actually make a decent base or reference for a unit study as well.

This is not just a quick, light-hearted picture book style story, though it does, indeed, appear that way at first glance. It's not a long story, but I wouldn't necessarily call it a quick read either because we felt it was a lot to take in all at once. While it does not lay out a multitude of dates or pile on a myriad of specific names (though the author does include a short list with brief bios of certain key figures - which is nice), it attempts to paint a picture of the time period by sharing about life, experiences, and people in general. It touches on major events, challenges, and work, and describes even what some might consider to be minor aspects like food, chores, and clothing. We felt that it did a good job at this, but I also felt it had an edge that made it more facts and less story. This means you get a lot of bang for your educational buck, but less entertainment along the way. Still, the author has a decent balance of the two, especially considering the purpose of the book.

The illustrations are a bit quirky, or even slightly crude, at times. It could be argued that this actually suits the time period and adds to the feeling of being there. The text was white printed on a very dark background, which felt awkward and strained my eyes. This bothered me as I found it to be distracting from time to time (even if my daughter didn't notice).

The story has the reader imagine they are a child of parents in London and explains that people felt they needed to move to seek freedom to practice religion and life as they desired. It follows the child to the Netherlands and then aboard the ship sailing to America, the harsh, difficult times of getting a village established, what it was like growing up there, connections with Native Americans, and the colony growing and taking root. 

Picture
We also received If You Were Me and Lived in... Ancient Greece, which does not match up with our current history study time period, but we have covered it and will again, so we went ahead and looked through the whole book. (I couldn't, for the life of me, get the image of this one to show up here, but you can see it in the group book photo at the top of this post.)

The text in this book was dark on a light background, which my eyes appreciated after reading the other one. I also liked the illustrations even more; the pictures were well designed, interesting, and did a well at complementing the story.

The story begins with a mention of geography and Greece today, then moves into imagining you lived in 350 BC. It is comprehensive in the many aspects of life and experience, just as the Colonial America book. It talks about government, housing, schooling, military service, city-states, slaves, food, clothing, jewelry, gender roles, markets, trade, and more. Most pages have a couple of sentences about a God or Goddess that usually at least partly relates to a topic discussed on that page. There is also a reference section near the end of the book, before the glossary, where the author lists and describes the various Greek Gods and Goddesses.  

Picture

The third book we were generously provided, Oh Susannah: It's in the Bag, was a fun, easy, paperback chapter book with a solid life lessons about talking to people who love you, asking for help rather than carrying worries and stress around with you, and dealing with thing before they get out of hand. The comparison it makes to carrying around a heavy, filled backpack is a cute idea! I did not personally read this book, but my daughter did and I skimmed it. Our consensus is that this story is engaging and something kids reading it can certainly relate to and understand, especially since Susannah goes through a lot of situations that many young girls encounter in their own lives. Her day is filled with  problems with homework, tests, social challenges, and nightmares, but the story ends with positive, loving assistance from her parents.

​
Picture

Final Thoughts

Good books!  Not perfect, not our absolute favorites, but a solid choice nonetheless. If You Were Me and Lived in... Colonial America, and If You Were Me and Lived in... Ancient Greece, along with the other similarly titled books in the series, could certainly be a solid addition to geography, culture, or history studies. And Oh Susannah: It's in the Bag is a sweet, charming story for a young child as well. 

You can visit the author on her website or on social media at Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Good Reads. you can also find her books on Amazon.

Review: Progeny Press

9/11/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
Now that Lil' Sis (2nd grade) has a solid foundation with being able to read well, we've started to place more emphasis on digging deeper into books, reading comprehension, and critical thinking and evaluation of what's she's read. With that goal in mind, we decided to try The Bears on Hemlock Mountain E-Guide from Progeny Press.
​

About Progeny Press

Progeny Press is a company with a solid, clear statement of Christian faith. They offer study guides with a Christian perspective for a wide variety of quality literature. These guides come in three versions: download, CD/PDF, or paper, book-bound format. They also sell the coordinating books (to go with the study guides) and offer some audio books and teacher resources, including a reading log, Bible, mystery box, and even a few theatrical scripts and medieval props.  
​
They have products for students of all ages, from lower and upper elementary through middle and high school. Some examples include: 
  • ​The Bears on Hemlock Mountain E-Guide (Grades 1-3)
  • Charlotte’s Web E-Guide (Grades 4-6)
  • The Silver Chair E-Guide (Grades 5-7)
  • Macbeth E-Guide (Grades 9-12)
    ​

About The Bears on Hemlock Mountain (book)

The Bears on Hemlock Mountain book is about Jonathon, who is sent on an errand by his mother, over Hemlock "Mountain" to borrow a large pot from his aunt. He is concerned he might encounter bears, though he is told there are none, and attempts to be brave along the way. He finds himself distracted with yummy cookies and falls asleep, causing him to rush out the door after waking. Realizing that he left his aunt's house without what he came for, he had to go back for it, making his journey home even later in the evening. Chanting to himself that there are no bears and focusing on the beauty of nature around him to bolster his courage, he finds himself in an encounter with bears nonetheless! He tips the pot upside down and hides underneath, finding himself stuck there as the bears sniff around right outside. His father comes to the rescue and they head home, with a few life lessons learned in the process about bravery, telling the truth, and being responsible. 
Picture

Our Experience & The Bears on Hemlock Mountain E-Guide

​We received The Bears on Hemlock Mountain E-Guide (download format). Before we got started, I printed the study guide and simply stapled it together. I had initially considered putting it in a three-ring binder, as we do with many printed school materials, but this didn't seem to warrant that since it wasn't very thick (about 34 pages and I printed on both sides of the paper).
​
As I flipped through and got an overview of the study guide, my initial reaction was that I liked what I saw. It looked clean, clear, and easy to follow/understand, with plenty of space to write when indicated. My daughter writes a bit large sometimes still (handwriting is something we are still working on) and the lines seemed to have good spacing as well.

I noticed some added touches that imparted even more value to the guide, such as the synopsis, info about the author, background information (The Bears on Hemlock Mountain comes from a folk tale shared with the author in 1952), activity ideas for both before and after you read the book (including a sugar cookie recipe), and suggestions for further reading. They also had notes next to the suggested reading that indicated the target ages/grades for each book. Minor detail, I know, but sometimes it's the little things that get my attention, because I feel that if the creator does well with small aspects, then the overall product is likely to be quality as well.
​
Picture
Picture
There is a bit of variety in the study guide; not all of the writing tasks are the same type, which I like. Some questions ask for a specific answer and others seek slightly more in-depth responses or ask for personal opinion and experience. There was a matching activity, vocabulary terms to be looked up and defined, quoted Scripture and discussion, and a mystery word activity near the end. Of course, there is also an Answer Key at the end, which would come in handy for a parent or teacher that did not read the story with their child.  

The before and after activity ideas were fun! We didn't do them all, but they have some good suggestions to suit your individual preferences, time, age and number or kids, and situation. The before-you-read activities involved simple things like defining and comparing a mountain and hill, or more complex ones like creating a hospitality bulletin board. The after-you-read activities included a creative writing project, dramatic play acting (oh my goodness, my kids love this kind of thing!), and baking cookies! Personally, I felt that the activities actually enhanced the study even more when interspersed throughout the study experience. For example, baking the cookies and munching on them while reading about Jonathon eating the cookies his Aunt Emma gave him. Or listening to a recording of birds and forest sounds during the related parts of the book. 

You can order The Bears on Hemlock Mountain book from the Progeny Press website if you don't already own it, which makes it easy to get everything you need all at once. We just used our Kindle version of the book along with our guide, which worked rather well for us even though Lil' Sis usually prefers a physical paper-and-cover book in her hands when reading. The ebook allowed us to highlight vocab words, passages, or points of interest, as well as sentences that she were designated as copywork, which aided her in staying focused. That, subsequently, allowed me to be slightly more hands off and attend to Baby Sis, who has become quite the daredevil and explorer already!  


Final Thoughts

My daughter enjoyed The Bears on Hemlock Mountain E-Guide and I believe it was well designed and executed, helping my daughter to better understand what she read, build her vocabulary, and show what she learned. I think it is entirely possible to accomplish reading comprehension and evaluation of literature without a study guide such as this, but feel this makes things so much easier, and as a busy homeschool mom with a toddler along for the ride, it's nice to have things thoughtfully laid out in advance (less that I have to plan and prep for - yay)!  We will be using more e-guides from Progeny Press in the future.

Review: A Journey Through Learning Lapbooks

8/28/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
My family is participating in a Classical Conversations community this year. While very little is needed to supplement the curriculum, I still find myself interested in anything that is available to enhance, solidify, and/or reinforce what we are learning. It is nice to have options to support my children's learning styles as we go through the memory work. Since Big Sis is particularly fond of taking notes, we've been trying out the Classical Conversations Cycle 3 Activity Book from A Journey Through Learning Lapbooks for the past couple of weeks.

About A Journey Through Learning Lapbooks

Picture
A Journey Through Learning Lapbooks is a small business run by a couple of homeschool moms/families and their team. While they have lapbooks as a large focus (as their name implies), ​they also make and offer a number of activity books, unit studies, copywork, and notebooking products on a variety of topics in subjects such as history, geography, science, Bible, 4H, music, literature, and more.  

Some of the curricula for which they offer supplemental materials include: Jay Wile's Science, Jeannie Fulbright/Apologia, Classical Conversations (all three cycles), TruthQuest, Geography Matters, A History of Us, and Diana Waring History Revealed.

​

About the Classical Conversations Cycle 3 Activity Book

The product we have been using is actually more of an activity book akin to notebooking, which is a lot like journaling and note-taking with fun graphics and little twists throughout, to make things a bit more interesting instead of simply using a blank page. The Classical Conversations Cycle 3 Activity Book is designed for use by children in grades 3-6 who are participating in the Classical Conversations Cycle 3 program. This is an independently created supplement and does not include any official materials from Classical Conversations, so you'd still need the Foundations guide. 

The activity book comes in two forms: an "instant download" and a "printed and bound" option. It consists of 124 pages that have space to practice the memory work for all 24 weeks. (Remember, it doesn't actually include the memory work, but is, rather, a place to write it and take notes about it.) Each week has pages for each area of memorization for the week - including history sentence, science, arts, geography, latin, etc. I didn't notice a place for math, other than the open-ended lined sections. It was recommended by the author that students use a page protector over the pages and write with dry erase markers to practice throughout the week. Then, a final draft of the memory work is to be written into the activity book at the end of the week. 
​

Our Experience

Picture
We received the digital product in the form of a downloadable PDF, so I printed it up and used a three-hole-punch to prepare it for use in a 1/2" three-ring binder. I added a few sheet protectors to the front as well. It worked great this way because it was easy to remove the week's pages and slip them into the sheet protectors for repeated use with dry erase markers, then take them back out to write in pencil at the end of the week. 

We've only gone through two weeks of CC (Classical Conversations) so far this school year, but between using this activity book for a couple of weeks and looking over the rest of it, I feel that I have a good grasp of what it's all about.  

My daughter liked that the pages have shapes, designs, or creatively chosen "boxes" or other artwork in which to write her notes. I think she could have easily done her own "decorating" of the pages of a blank/plain notebook of our own instead, but it was nice to have each subject and week already laid out for us. Plus, doing it this way saved time and kept the focus to the notes instead of on doodling and design. Since my daughter is easily distracted, this is a big plus for me... it keeps her from veering off and helps her stay on task better. 
​
We chose to do things a bit differently than intended in some areas. For example, my daughter likes the illustrations and graphics on the notebooking pages, so that is where she chose to write her final draft (in pencil) instead of on the "copywork" page (which is mostly just a lined page)... and I was okay with that.

We didn't care for the blank "draw your map" geography page; I felt it needed to have the outline of the country or states already on the page - something the child could label but not have to draw out the whole country or state themselves. However, this repeated drawing of the outlines of the states could be better for memory and retention!

Picture
Big Sis, who has been enjoying writing and note-taking these days, liked filling the pages out with her memory work. She also liked doing additional research on the science topic of the week, which was great for her to learn more and better understand the material covered.

I liked how using this activity book is creating a record of what we've been working on and is yet another way for my daughter to practice her memory work at the same time.
Picture

Final Thoughts

Though we liked certain aspects of the product, my family felt largely indifferent about the Classical Conversations Cycle 3 Activity Book, but I can see that it could be a nice addition to some families' homeschool days. For those who do a lot of notebooking, this activity book provides a good framework to include Classical Conversations memory work in that written format. Plus, for those that require or desire to have a written record or portfolio of what they've been working on throughout the year, this could be the ideal supplement to fill that role.

Our Experience... 

While we have not attended their Farm Festival, I've heard good things about it. My family has, however, been to Kahumana Farms on a number of occasions now and we think they are great! The cafe has always had yummy food, the farm is doing a lot for the community, and we've had the privilege to participate in a couple of homeschool group field trips. The following pictures are not from the festival, but they are from the farm during our visits there (these happen to be from years ago though).  

Even if you don't attend the festival event, I highly recommend stopping by their farm and/or cafe if you are ever in Waianae and have the opportunity. Be sure to check their hours ahead of time, though!
