Hi everyone! Just in time for the back-to-school season, EasyFunSchool.com is back up and running. This has taken me longer than I could have predicted due to phone line problems and learning new programming. Oh well ... you live, you learn. You'll see a slightly different format at the website that accomodates the new hosting system. You'll also notice that the old and slow "article archive" is gone. Its being replaced by a subject index that better reflects the needs of site users. Right now the subject index is limited, but will expand a great deal in the next couple of weeks as I become more familiar with the new coding system, etc. In addition to the new timeline feature that I have going (http://www.easyfunschool.com/timeline.html) I have four addtional articles for you: Suggested Reading For History http://www.easyfunschool.com/SRHistory.html This is a list of suggested reading and resources divided up by approximate historical period. This list will be updated and modified on a regular basis. Books on this list include commentaries, "living books," biographies, autobiographies, videos, audiotapes, resources, and some pieces of historical fiction that I've found useful in my own family's studies. Louisiana -- A State Unit Study http://www.easyfunschool.com/Louisiana.html This mini unit on LOUISIANA uses the cross curricular approach to education. There are several activities from different academic subjects for you to choose from. One of the most important things is to have fun! Keeping Wild Things Wild (nature studies) http://www.easyfunschool.com/WildThingsWild.html Not everyone will agree with me on this, but .... One of the first things we have to understand is that wild animals are just that . WILD! They aren't meant to be pets, no matter how cute some of them might be. People sometimes try and save a baby animal that they find by raising them as pets. This is definitely not a good idea. Fun Food: French Toast Breakfast Muffins http://www.easyfunschool.com/funfoodFTBM.html My kids and I made these muffins just because they sounded fun. Wow! Cooking them wasn't the only fun part, they were delicious!! The cinnamon sugar topping flavors them perfectly. Thanks to everyone for being such troopers through all of this. I can't tell you how much I've appreciated the personal emails of encouragement.
