We decided to try the Answers in Genesis science curriculum. Our first day was a success. We were learning how to know if something was alive or not. The kids had to go around the house and pick an item and ask certain questions about that item to see if the item was alive. They all wanted to go alone instead of with partners but Alison & I went together. After we found our 6 items and answered the questions we came back together to share with each other our results. Here are a few pics:
We also had a fun time with history. The kids love it. That is another subject I don't like teaching. Thankfully we have great books that make it interesting even for me. :) These pics are of map work.

We actually have one of the Answers science books too, and I LOVE it! It came with our My Father's World stuff this year. It's fantastic! Lukas likes it better than any of the other stuff we do, and I like that it is easy to teach because science is my least favorite thing to teach. We have Properties of Ecosystems. Which one do you have?
It sounds fun. I'm glad you found some better cirriculum. I like to listen to what you say as advice for myself in the future if I decide to homeschool. Your kids are blessed to have you as their mom and teacher!

YEAH! Make it fun and everyone will have a good time exploring, learning, and realizing it is all about HIM!
I'm using some of their older curriculum for Joshua, and I really like it as well.
