This is all the work that the girls have completed over the last four weeks. In general things went really well. Becca in particular feels that the balance of academic with less academic is good.

Göbekli Tepe Lesson
Göbekli Tepe (‘Tepe’ = mound) has fascinated archeologists since Klaus Schmidt realised its importance in 1995.

As time has gone by and Göbekli Tepe reveals her secrets, it is now known to be so much more than a… Continue reading Göbekli Tepe Lesson

This post explores what it might be like Working in Zero-Gravity conditions. Introduction to Working in Zero-Gravity On earth we are used to working with a gravitational force which keeps us centred and steady.

Plans for the Littles {2017-2018}
I have been in a quandary as far as teaching my little ones goes. I always thought I would simply teach them in the same way as I taught my older ones, by working our way through the history of mankind. In fact we did start with a Dinosaur Unit Study followed by a Mesopotamia… Continue reading Plans for the Littles {2017-2018}
Weekly Schedule: Term 1, Week 3

T12’s Electives For the 2014-15 school Year
T12 is by far my most studious child. Whilst he hates writing with a passion he truly loves to learn, and because of this is highly self motivated. He would love to unschool and I suspect would thrive quite well learning independently anything that caught his interest. However, he is certain he wants to go… Continue reading T12’s Electives For the 2014-15 school Year
