A Season of Promise and Hope!



The season of spring is here, and we are just about to begin a very special week of celebration, discovery, and gratitude. We are able to set aside this special time to remember God's ultimate gift to us: eternity! From Palm Sunday to Ascension Day, introduce your child to the events that changed our world forever and gave us promise and HOPE.


This holiday provides the perfect opportunity to teach our children about the promise of Easter--God's promise through His son, Jesus. From meeting the disciples, to learning about Passover, studying the Last Supper, and learning about what happened at Gethsemane, your child is about to begin a fascinating exploration of the real meaning of Easter. From curiosity to wonder to understanding, your child will begin to grasp the real
Easter Promise



After Easter, continue the learning with Expedition Israel--take them on a learning adventure and virtually visit the Jordan River, the Sea of Galilee, and other biblical places where Jesus walked and talked and performed so many miracles. Help them to understand that these are real places, not just places on a map in the back of their Bibles. Israel is a beautiful country, full of history and so much more.


Another great adventure awaits with Bountiful Bread. Just the smell of this wonderful food can get the immediate attention of most people. So many fun and memorable childhood events include memories of bread making and baking. From holiday favorites (including Easter and Passover!) to daily breads, this food item dates way back to biblical times and still plays an important role in our lives.

These studies will help you engage your children like never before. Make this an unforgettable season of learning for the whole family!  Save on these memorable Download N Go Studies now through 4/7/12 - Just $4 each.

Blessings,
Amanda B.

Easter HOPE - Tuesday Titles

Welcome to Week 2 of more great book suggestions for you and your family to enjoy during the Easter HOPE Co-op.   If you have some family Easter favorites, we'd love to have you share them!



General Interest-

Daily Life in the Time of Jesus
by Miriam F. Vamosh / Abingdon Press

What did Jesus see when he woke up each morning? What were the city streets like? What did people wear? What did they eat? In Daily Life at the Time of Jesus, Miriam Vamosh guides pilgrims of all ages on an unforgettable tour of the Holy Land 2,000 years ago. Lavish illustrations complement down-to-earth commentary on Jesus' cultural environment, as illuminated by 50 years of archaeological research.

Benjamin's Box: A Resurrection
by Melody Carlson / Zonderkidz

This tale of a child following Jesus during Biblical times to find out who He is will teach your children lessons from the Bible. What are the treasures in Benjamin's Box? Come along with Benjamin and see. Like all boys and girls, Benjamin is very, very curious. Unlike children of today, however, Benjamin lives during the days of Christ! When Jesus comes to Jerusalem, Benjamin decides to follow Him and find out who He really is. At first, he thinks Jesus is a teacher, then a king. At last, Benjamin learns the good news--news that every child (and grown-up!) will want to share. Recommended for ages 5 to 10.

Jr/Sr High Students -




The Greatest Story Ever Told
by Fulton Oursler / Random House
 
First published in 1949, this classic has been read by millions. Now it's back! Oursler's account of Jesus' life---the greatest life ever lived, from incarnation to resurrection---is powerfully but simply written, and set against an accurate historical background. This is an excellent, non-threatening way to introduce the Gospel to folks who aren't yet willing to tackle the New Testament.


Don't forget to stop by and visit us each day on Facebook.  We are enjoying this Easter HOPE journey together, how about you?

Celebrating Spring's Arrival!



Spring is here! The daffodils are making pockets of yellow sunbursts on our country roads, and farmers are busy preparing fields and garden beds. After growing up in Florida where the season changes were very subtle, I appreciate the big and colorful changes. They seem to keep everyone here looking forward to the next season with anticipation.

The coming of spring also brings around softball, baseball and soccer signups. As a parent, I know just what it is like to have children who are sports-oriented, as well as those who are not into sports. I have also realized that there are seasons of interest in sports that vary for each child, just like their interests in so many other things. While they may love sports this year, next year might be a year of interest in cars or quilts or horses. Be flexible and let them explore THEIR interests. This is their childhood, never to be experienced again. Let them enjoy it.

And now, time for true confessions. I have been at it again – shopping for seeds! I can’t resist picking a few packets when I walk by those colorful displays and see all kinds of colorful flowers, vegetables and fruit, just waiting to be planted. From the local dollar stores to the grocery store and the farmers’ cooperative – I am surrounded with packages of promise, and it is beautiful. I must admit that I do miss the days when the children were small, and things like a Pizza Garden or Green Bean Teepees were so exciting. Check out our Gardens Board on Pinterest for some inspiration. Enjoy these days with your family – they will disappear before you know it.

With the approach of the season where we observe the ultimate sacrifice of our Lord and celebrate His victory over death, consider this a season of thanksgiving for the eternal gift of HOPE from the Creator. Share your thanksgiving with you family and friends and complete strangers. We are blessed, indeed.


Blessings,

Amanda B.
P.S. - I'm at the Southeast Homeschool Convention in Greenville, SC -  3/22 -  3/24, stop in and say hello!  It is always great fun to meet so many of you. From hearing about your own unit study adventures, to listening to stories about your children, it reminds me of a family reunion – listening, talking, sharing, and bragging, of course. You all inspire my creativity with your stories and trials. Thanks so much for taking the time to share and care.

Tuesday Titles to Share

Tuesday Titles are back for our Easter Co-op 2012!


Some of our greatest moments are made reading to our children.  Each week during our Easter Co-op, we will showcase a couple of Easter book titles that you can share with your families.  It's time to get busy making memories!


General Interest -

by Martha Zimmerman. Published by Bethany House Publishers.


The word "holiday" means "a special day set apart for a spiritual purpose," and most of the holidays originated to affirm our faith. Through them we can communicate what we believe. Holidays invite us to participate with God's people through the centuries in historic events that have affected all of time, including the present, and prepare us for the future! They "replay" decisive religious events, reminding us of God's marvelous works.


What a wonderful reason to celebrate and give praise to God! With thoughtful planning, holidays can provide time for families to love each other, have fun together, build family memories, and truly celebrate the traditional Christian holidays.


Family Read Aloud -


Amon's Adventure: A Family Story for Easter
by Arnold Ytreeide / Kregel Publications

With short, exciting chapters, reflections for family devotions, and advice for making Lent a meaningful experience, Amon’s Adventure will help families discover anew the spiritual power of the resurrection story.

 Thirteen-year-old Amon, struggles to divide his time between his friends and his duties to family and faith. But when his father, Jotham, is falsely accused of a terrible crime, Amon willingly sacrifices his childhood ways in order to save his father’s life. Along the way, he sees the jubilant crowds that gathered on Palm Sunday, outwits the Roman soldiers that planned to kill both his father and Jesus, hears the Messiah address the angry crowds, is present during the daring betrayal of Judas Iscariot, and witnesses the ultimate sacrifice made on Good Friday.  Highly Recommended!


Elementary Reading -

Welcome to our Easter Co-op 2012!

Thanks so much for joining us as we begin this Easter walk to learn more about our Lord, His ministry and disciples, and the last days of His life before His crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension to heaven. We will be using the Easter Unit Study Adventure as our guide through the coming four weeks, and pray that the learning is potent and that the message of His hope is as clear as a bright new day.


 The message of Easter is the most important lesson that your children will ever learn, and I hope that the Easter study and co-op can cement this message in their hearts and minds. They need to know and understand the depth of God’s love and His ultimate sacrifice for the promise of eternity—His one and only Son.

 I carefully choose one word for the theme of each USAB Facebook co-op, and the word for the 2012 Easter co-op is HOPE! My choice comes primarily from this passage:


“But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.”

(1 Peter 3:15, NIV)

I’m looking forward to sharing and learning in the weeks ahead, and thankful for this opportunity to help your children learn more about the hope that Jesus represents to each and every one of us.

During Week One - we will be exploring these Learning Objectives together:


Develop an understanding of who Jesus is – the Son of God, our Savior,
and much more. 

Learn about the time and places that He lived and traveled. 

Become familiar with the Old Testament prophecies that were about the
Savior.

Study the years between His birth and early ministry.


See you soon,

Amanda B.

Fantastic Friday goes Wild!

Spring brings gusto for life with all its fascinations—God's natural world is wild!

I don't know about you, but I'm ready to open up the house and let the clean fresh air inside.  We have had some really wild weather with snow flurries, plenty of rain, and hail like we haven't had before. As tornado season touches down, our Fantastic Friday giveaway will help you expand your homeschool horizon with Twisting Tornadoes Download N Go!



Amidst spring's beautiful changes and warmer climate lurk the coiling wind and stormy weather. While most adults cringe at even the mention of "tornado," most children are naturally curious, wanting to learn all they can.

Remember a child's intrigue with the vortex created from a draining bathtub? Ever make your own tornado in a bottle? Wow! Kids just love experimenting with the formations of nature, wanting to understand the way things work!

From dust devils to "snow-nadoes," these exciting weather events will keep children learning and happily investigating the world and weather of the seasons.

Here's what one mom had to say:

“Sometimes the best cure for fear is information, and Twisting Tornadoes provides plenty of that to satisfy curious kids . . . This unit study covers the science of vortexes and the hands-on experiments to demonstrate a twister in action. It also covers the geography and vocabulary of tornadoes. Most importantly, it provides Scriptures and prayers to alleviate fears and remind children of God’s loving protection . . . My daughter is always happy to work on a lapbook to display the knowledge she’s gained—and to have something to show off to Grandma and Grandpa! We love unit studies and lapbooks at our house, and we definitely look forward to each installment of Download N Go™. We have not been disappointed yet!”

Let's take an Expedition to Ireland (the Emerald Isle!)



It’s usually the shamrocks and leprechauns that children ask about when you start talking about Ireland.

As we head off on our expedition to learn about Ireland, we will be studying these things and having a trip to remember!


With Download N Go unit studies, you are about to begin a new kind of learning experience. Each study is one week in length, having five daily lessons with lapbook components for each day. The name, Download N Go comes from the concept that these studies are ready to use as soon as you have downloaded them. No preparation or waiting time or other expensive resources are required.

Put a "Spring" in your step!

Happy spring!

It's almost here, at long last. What a breath of fresh air, and all of the flowers and new green leaves are absolutely a sight for sore eyes! After spending so many years of my life in Florida, I thoroughly enjoy the change of seasons and the anticipation of the next season.

This is a good time of year to relax a bit and get outside to enjoy some real "natural" learning--walking, observing, collecting and sketching. Try to stand in the same spot every day and take a picture of a neighborhood tree as the new leaves emerge, then print them off on card stock and let the children cut them apart and make a "flip" book out of the pictures. They can watch the tree get spring leaves instantly. This is fun for kids and grownups of all ages!






To keep the March fun going as the weather warms we're offering great savings on the Expedition Ireland ($4), Passport United Kingdom ($5 for Scout or Explorer, just $9 for the Combo!), and Spring Surprises ($4) studies this week. Now is the perfect time to put a "spring" in your step with a new and exciting learning adventure!

Blessings,

Adventures in Bravery, Courage, and Honesty . . .Heroes for Today!



Who were your heroes when you were a child? I had all kinds of heroes--biblical heroes like Daniel, Esther, Joseph, and others, as well as more modern heroes like Daniel Boone, Neil Armstrong, Amelia Earhart, and more. They were important to me because they were real people who had lived extraordinary lives.   

While raising our children, I noticed that they didn't have the same kinds of heroes I had.  Their heroes came in plastic shell packages from the store, wearing different colored capes and not connected with anyone who had lived a life of real adventure and challenges. That bothered me, so I set out to help them discover "real" heroes.  

This new series, Heroes for Today, contains stories from long ago which I have updated for the next generation. These stories capture the imagination, while reinforcing important character traits--courage, ambition, perseverance, humility, caring for others, responsibility, faith, conviction, and more.  



Let your children meet these people, savor their stories, and learn and grow from their adventures, trials, and tribulations!

Take advantage of the special, low introductory prices -$7 each (reg. $10.95) or the Heroes collection - 5 titles for $30 (reg. $40) good through 3/13/12.

Speak Up!



“Speak up!” Didn't you hear that often enough in your formative years from adults trying to encourage you to say what is on your mind and let others be aware of your ideas? I know firsthand that as a parent, it is one of the things that we encourage in our own children. As American citizens, we also need to speak up in our government and raise our opinions clearly through elections as well as other outlets. As these children of ours grow up and become adults in our communities, they need to be aware and informed of the election process, the workings of American government, and ways that they can impact the process.

When studying elections, your family can learn so much, including:

· the history of elections
· the basic structure of representative government
· the voting and election process
· participating in a campaign
· the basics of statistics and how they are used in campaigns and elections

· facts about presidents, their families, and their opponents

As this generation matures, they need to be fully aware of their own capabilities and responsibilities within the framework of our American government. This unit study can open the doors to further learning and understanding in these areas, while getting the whole family involved in elections and politics. As parents, we need to be aware of issues that affect us in our efforts. Students need to understand that they, too, will need to stay involved in the process to protect and maintain these constitutional freedoms.

Make learning about this great country a wonderful and interesting adventure. Instead of learning about elections and government from a dried up textbook, enjoy the process using real books. Discover exciting elections and unpredictable outcomes, and read biographies of various presidents and their own family lives.

Elections 2012 Unit Study Adventure offers all of this and more. Starting with the younger students, you can delve into some fun history about the Constitution and learn more about presidents such as George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. The older students can study the Constitution and its origins, and from this get a better understanding of the basic structure of our government. They can go into greater detail in their study of the election process and past and present candidates. Pursue this study on a regular basis throughout your child's education, covering different sections each time while providing a solid knowledge base in history and government, and strengthening their understanding of their rights and responsibilities.

Here are a few activities to consider when studying Elections:
1.      As you delve into the history of elections, have the students select one of the actual elections and candidates that they are interested in studying in-depth. Using the library, your home book collection, the Internet, and other resources, help them investigate the event and the people. On the Internet, you can even find each inaugural address!

2.      Issues—what issues are important to your family in the upcoming elections? Have your students determine the issues that are important to them, and explain why they are important. Consider having them interview family members about the issues that they are most concerned with during the upcoming elections. The students can summarize their findings in a written report, possibly in a family newsletter format.

3.      During election years, there are usually public sessions, debates, and "meet the candidate" get-togethers. Find out when these are scheduled and try to take your students along to watch the political process at the grassroots level.

Use this study to inform and empower the next generation! Enjoy the adventure as well as the election!

Blessings,
Amanda B.
