Tapestry of Grace Year 2 Cover Pages and List of Resources

I received a request from homeschool mom, Chrissy, to create cover pages for Tapestry of Grace Year 2. I created them in standard and landscape styles. There are 4 choices for each unit in both styles - some with and some without places for your child's name. While the cover pages are the unit names for TOG, they of course will work for any history study for these time periods.

If you have a request, please feel free to contact me here.

I've created many resources to go along with these time periods. I'll list the free resource first and then the titles I have for sale at Currclick.com.

Freebie - Shang Dynasty Notebooking Pages

Well, it's that time of year again! Planning, planning, and more planning!!!

We're starting from the beginning again (Creation) and I know I have lots of free pages for the Ancients in my Freebies section but there are a few more I need to make for my son. So I'll be adding those over the next weeks and months. I also realized that we haven't studied the ancient periods since our house burned down a few years ago. Thank goodness for Heritage History, because I have absolutely no books to go along with our History spine this year. We are using Mystery of History 1 (2nd edition) again. I will need to purchase some books but I'll be supplementing with Heritage History for the most part.

With all the being said, here are the Shang Dynasty Notebooking Pages - there are 5 pages in this set all using basic lines. If any of you would like primary lines, just let me know and I'd be happy to do that. It doesn't take but a minute or two :)

I've had a couple requests for a table of contents for my title Famous People and Events of the Middle Ages.  I'm unable to add it to the original file because of a house fire several years ago.  I lost all my originals.  So I'm going to add it here on my blog.

This lapbook was created to go along with an American Revolutionary War unit study put together by my daughter, Ali.  This unit study was a learning service project for one of her history classes (she's a senior and history major at Souther Utah University).  Please leave her a comment if you are so inclined.  She would love to read your feed-back, whether it is good or bad.  We both hope you enjoy this study!

Book List for History

I usually have my book lists for the year all made up by the time we start school, along with tons of resources and notebooking pages all made up. But this summer was so extremely busy that I've only made up a small part of my book list and nothing else. However, I do have lots of books in mind. We are studying American History this year, picking up where we left off last year. We will begin with the French and Indian Wars.

We typically spend 1 to 2 weeks on each section. I'm hoping to get through a lot this year, but that's always my goal ;) Life has a way of getting in the way most of the time! As I decide on more books, I'll add it to this post, along with links to other resources I find to go along.

Our spine for history this year is All American History Volume 1... we started in Unit 3. Although, we will also be using parts of A New World of Adventure, as well.

Well, that's all I've got so far... like I said I still have a long way to go. But, I'm getting there and with a little luck, I'll have it all figured out soon!

By the way, my kids are posting most of their assignments on their school blogs this year. As I mentioned earlier I've been busy and looking for resources and making them is something I just don't have time for right now. They are basically adding narrations to their blogs and we have group discussion as well. It's working really well so far. Plus, the great thing about blogs is that it's like keeping a portfolio of all their work online, where it can't get lost.

Anyway... this post is UNDER CONSTRUCTION! More to come soon, I hope!!!
