Over the last couple of years I have come across certain blogs that have been a huge help to me in our Homeschool. So, I thought I would pass them on to anyone interested.
Higher Up and Further In, is full of information on the Charlotte Mason method of Homeschooling. She gives sample schedules and answers many questions regarding the How To's.

The following two blogs are by the same person. They are amazing helps if you are using, The Handbook of Nature Study by Anna Botsford Comstock, or Drawing With Children by Mona Brooks. If you are not using either of these books you will find plenty of ideas for Nature Walks along with weekly challenges to get outdoors. On the second link you will find art tutorials and weekly assignments for "Sketch Tuesday." I highly recommend both blogs.

The following blog is full of seasonal ideas and organization plans. She has, for each month, a Plans and Themes page. I find this helpful in thinking about all the possibilities for the month. She also has a "tea and craft" time where she teaches her children about Catholic saints. I am not Catholic, but this is a great idea for teaching Church History or about special Christians with whom you want your children to be familiar.
