| Homeschool With Index Cards Not Just for Flashcards Anymore! |
| A 20-page guide created to help implement index cards into your homeschooling. It gives you ideas on how to use index cards, and also gives specifics on what information to place on the cards. $4.95 (Guide Only) |
| I. Introduction Gives a quick intro to supplies and storage suggestions for using the index cards. II. Informational and Flashcards Broken down into subjects: Bible, Math, Language Arts, History/Geography, Science, Foreign Language, Art & Music This section is packed full of information. For example, the Math section alone includes over 50 terms with definitions, 5 Mathematical Properties, Roman Numerals info, Measurement Conversions, and more. The Language Arts section includes a list of phonemes, Dolch sight words through level 3, grammar terms and definitions, lists of the personal pronouns, a list of prepositions, and more. This is just a small sampling of the information you will find in this section. The Informational and Flashcard section also gives instructions on creating subject specific Handbooks. (See more info on the Handbooks.) III. Timeline Chest A "hands-on" timeline We have never had much success in using a book timeline. We do not have the space for a wall timeline. As I was browsing Homeschool in the Woods website, they had an example of an index card timeline. (See it here.) I have slightly adapted that idea by color coding the cards based on the subject the timeline character would best represent. (This idea used with permission.) IV. Games and Activities Games and activities using index cards and a generic file folder game board. Also included are a few ideas on creating other activities that would be review items for the student which are self-correcting. V. Home Maintenance Includes several ideas using index cards that I have implemented into our home. It contains meal plans & Mom's chore system. This also includes the index card chore organizer my kids have been using successfully for over a year. (Kid Chore Organizer Cards now available!) |
