Friday Five is my weekly roundup for fun homeschooling ideas. All week, I come across resource finds from around the web. (Follow me on Facebook and Pinterest for real time updates.) I cull my discoveries down on Friday for my weekly top five picks.
Homeschooling ideas this week: 50 Quotes to Inspire Your Homeschool; Teacher Planning Kits from PBS LearningMedia; Virtual Nisqually Watershed Festival on 9/26; Hispanic Heritage Month activities plus a quote from Walt Disney.
1. 50 Quotes to Inspire Your Homeschool
I like quotes. They inspire, they encourage and often show up when you need them the most. I have collected the following quotes over the years. Not all of them are specific to homeschooling, but they have inspired our home education journey over these last several years. I hope that they inspire you. Check out my list of 50 quotes.
2. Teacher Planning Kits for New School Routines – Elections and Civic Participation
The PBS Teacher Planning Kit for New School routines is an eight-week planning kit designed for PreK-12 teachers everywhere to help navigate this year’s new and changing school routines. Check them out here.
3. Nisqually Watershed Festival (Virtual)
See their livestream event featuring crafts, science, music, and sights from around the Nisqually Watershed — with old favorites and new behind-the-scenes content about the wildlife, ecosystems, and cultures that make the Nisqually a uniquely special place, from Mountain to Sound. Event details.
4. Hispanic Heritage Month activities from grades 3-5
Hispanic Heritage Month is September 15 to October 15. Check out these lessons and activities from Wide Open School.
5. Education Quote of the Week
“Our greatest natural resource is the minds of our children.”
— Walt Disney
