United States Nomenclature Montessori Cards FREE

Hi there!

We have started our 2nd year of CC and our 3rd year of homeschooling! We are now a family of 6 as well lol so life has been very interesting, not a dull moment…and if I ever find myself bored…actually, no, I never find myself bored…but if I ever did…then something might be wrong…anyhows if you see the picture above, i've created nomenclature cards that helps the children associate where in the US the states are… I looked many places for something like this…but only found cards that had each state separate…so here you go! I also included the state capital and abbreviations…. if anyone here knows where cards like this are then please do share! lol It will save me a lot of time in the future…until then, I will slowly be creating more and more for each week. 

**Week 2&3 contains the state matching game…and includes the location of the state capitals…so far we have played it like a memory game, if you make up any other fun ways to play then please share in the comments below! Thanks

Biomes Nomenclature Cards for FREE :)

I surf the internet day and night for free stuff. I have downloaded so many activities from so many nice bloggers out there, so I have made something I would like to share with you all...well the very few of you all...if any at all? lol (also in case my computer crashes I can always find this file here! lol)

Our family has just joined Classical Conversations and we are super excited to have our daughter start her first grade year with other like minded families.

For our first week memory work I have tried putting together activities that are Classical and Montessori combined. There isn't a whole lot of stuff from the internet that I have found...yet. I could not find a set of Biome nomenclature cards that matched the memory work. I came across two websites that had something similar to what I needed (here and on montessori for everyone ...but it wasn't exactly what I was looking for. So I decided to stay up late and make my own....so here it is, and it is yours to use as well! Enjoy! If you are not sure how to use nomenclature cards, don't worry it is super easy...here is a link that explains simply how to teach a three period lesson...and so on, enjoy! (Montessori print shop has a whole bunch of free cards as well!)

Here is a nice and simple video on the background and the directions for giving a three period lesson when introducing new material.

P.S. If there is any typos, SORRY! Let me know and I will fix them :)

UPDATE: I JUST REALIZED THE ORIGINAL FILE WAS A PAGE FILE FOR MAC, SO I MADE IT A PDF

Road Trip Activities Completed :)

Okay so here are pics of many of the activities that have been prepared. A lot of them were things that I have downloaded (which I probably provided the links to in the previous post). Many items are from my local dollar tree, target and acmoore.

The green Christmas bag is a whole bunch of $1 items that are wrapped up and will be given through out the trip, if they behave. >=)

When I get a chance I will update and provide more information! I have to finish packing now! Good night!

Leave a comment if you have any questions! :)
