The Homeschool Daily

With spring, comes all sorts of hands-on science opportunities! Whether you are stuck inside because of April showers, or you are out exploring the spring flowers, there is much to investigate! On April 22, you might find our Christian Earth Day Printables helpful to teach yours about taking care of Earth. Have your students ever dissected a bean seed or ventured into the various assortments of fruits and vegetables? What about a nature scavenger hunt to encourage the young explorers to find hidden natural treasure? Dirt prone kids will love to learn about earthworms and create an earthworm habitat. Be sure to check out our full collection of bird resources including our owl pellet dissection lab sheets. For those looking for a sweet lab, check out our assortment of M & M labs or Starburst lab sheets. If you are interested in brushing up on the scientific method, our airplane lab is a great choice. You can spend the day outside with that one! Aluminum foil boats can be constructed for indoor STEM or try out an ice boat in that spring heat. No matter what spring science activity you are looking for, we are sure to have something that sparks your interest! FREE Science Resources!

Matter Unit Study

The Matter Unit Study has been a work in progress for some time. My students and I worked through this unit in the fall, but I have been unable to get everything uploaded until now. The study of matter can not be covered in one week successfully. So, you will find as you scroll through the Matter Unit Study that it has been broken into parts including: Introduction to Matter, Properties of MatterStates of Matter, and Changing States of Matter. With so many FREE resources including slideshows, printable graphic organizers, tables, labs, videos, and more… teaching matter to your students will be easy! Matter Unit Study here you come!

Days of Creation Journal

Draw and write sheets are an excellent tool to use with budding writers. They encourage comprehension, writing structure, and retention of learned information. Students also find them less intimidating than a blank sheet of paper. In this particular set, your student will create a Days of Creation Journal complete with cover sheet. Walk your student through the days of creation reading appropriate scripture and discussing what God created on each day. Your student will draw and write each day constructing a memorable Days of Creation Journal! Be sure to check out our whole collection of creation printables and activities here!

Free Educational Slideshows

Looking to supplement your homeschool or try something new? We offer over 50 educational slideshows. Some are geared for our youngest learners teaching numbers & counting. Other slideshows focus on preschool skills teaching letter and beginning sounds. Many of our educational slideshows are science based and still others are for enrichment studies. These are an excellent FREE educational tool to pull out when you aren’t sure of the day’s schedule or when you are waiting around doing nothing at the doctor’s office!

Starburst Rock Cycle Lab Sheets

With any unit study we attempt, I try really hard to find a hands-on activity to go with the reading and notebook questions. The Starburst Rock Cycle Lab is an awesome way to visually act out the processes that rock undergo in the rock cycle. From erosion and weathering to heat and pressure, this lab helps students grasp the natural processes that occur on and in the crust. The FREE Lab Sheets help your students to solidify learned information. There is a rock cycle diagram worksheet too that helps kids practice using a diagram. Have fun and go make some Starburst rocks and magma!

Distribution of Earth's Water Demonstration

The Distribution of Earth’s Water Demonstration is easy to implement in your classroom or homeschool. It requires very little preparation and a minimal materials list. This demonstration pairs wonderfully with our  Distribution of Earth’s Water Unit. In any unit study, it is always a bonus if you can incorporate hands-on activities and visuals. Read more to find out how you can implement this easy demo using only cups and a bottle of water! Check out Distribution of Water Demonstration here!

Hi! My name is Marie. I am a Christian wife and mother to six children.  I used to work in the public school system as a middle school science teacher. Honestly, I never thought that I would homeschool my children. Little did I know what God had planned! The Homeschool Daily is where I post slideshows, activities, tips, and ideas! I hope you find encouragement and teaching resources while you are here! Look around and stay awhile!
