These are ideas that were inspired by your creativity. We are definitely crafting a lot more now. =)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10630559905679646842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6010432260379354191.post-77974867676642082452013-01-25T19:12:30.019-05:002013-01-25T19:12:30.019-05:00I should have said flags and labels (not maps and ...I should have said flags and labels (not maps and labels) sorry. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00871313717286589761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6010432260379354191.post-66533521374639557202013-01-25T19:09:38.453-05:002013-01-25T19:09:38.453-05:00Suzi - We LOVE our pin maps.

They are looking very cool. :) On my Teaching Plan I had maps and labels for all the Cycle 1 locations and then you cut them and put them on T pins to pin for each week's geography. The maps are the ones from the Foundation's Guide for Cycle 1 blackline maps. We had engineering copies made at Staples for $3 and then Walmart had the perfect size famed cork boards that we mounted them on after laminating them (which does or doesn't have to be done - I like it laminated but it's not necessary). I believe the boards were about $8-9 each. My daughter and I love pinning the locations together each week and she likes to see her map building as we add to it each week. It is a GREAT visual for teaching the geography each week.

Did you just take the hard-laminated version from CC to an office supply store and have that scanned/blown-up for framing? Or is there somewhere else you were able to purchase those? My daughter's favorite part of CC is the Geography so I look forward to adding THOSE to our study room. THANKS for the GREAT idea. =)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10630559905679646842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6010432260379354191.post-10228724001847802032013-01-24T09:17:36.834-05:002013-01-24T09:17:36.834-05:00Love your ideas!!

You can see more on her webpage about it. We fill them in each week for our new grammar. I made up the Mountains project (I do with most of my projects). I just googled online to find maps that seemed easy for the kids to understand for each of the continent's mountains and then copied them into a document and added my own information to coincide with CC's Memory work they were learning regarding it - that is what they cut out and pasted underneath their mountains they made. Regarding resources in general for the projects - I use my Teaching Plan that I already researched and compiled on each week's memory work and then I usually use various books that I get at our homeschooling store used and at a local bookstore that often has educational books on that week's topic (I'm not much for making it to the Library and when I have, I often can't find the books I want because lots of folks are doing CC near me!). Hope that helps. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00871313717286589761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6010432260379354191.post-1986172884185281672013-01-18T13:28:38.998-05:002013-01-18T13:28:38.998-05:00Really loved this Project.

Sarah - ...I appreciate the encouragement everyone. Sarah - Wonderful Wednesday's are explained in detail on my Teaching Plan once it's purchased. To summarize - we meet in order to lapbook the current week's memory work (wisdomandrighteousness lapbooks are used), we do a project or two on some aspect of that weeks memory work, then we play review games. Some weeks we fellowship afterwords and have lunch depending on everyone's schedules. It began to help the families that I tutor see how you can make CC your core curriculum and build out the memory work each week to teach. I know some of the Moms do their Math etc before we meet and others do it in the afternoon afterwards. It's a great way to build a stronger knit Community and class as well as provide social opportunities for the kids. I hope that helps you.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00871313717286589761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6010432260379354191.post-68131709767492204832013-01-13T00:27:32.748-05:002013-01-13T00:27:32.748-05:00I just stumbled across your blog and am so blessed...I just stumbled across your blog and am so blessed to have found it. I am wondering if you would mind doing a post explaining what exactly Wonderful Wednesdays are a little bit more. Who comes? What do you cover? Do you do your math curriculum or any other subjects on that day? Thank you so much!
