The Hey Mama! Homeschool Planner for 2019/20 Year is a great planner to have on hand. As you can see from the pictures, it's absolutely beautiful. The planner features calming artwork on the cover, with a wire comb style binding for easy turning. When opened, the planner will lay open flat to make adding notes or plans easy.

Math Mammoth REVIEW!!!!!

Math is one of those subjects that is hard for me to choose a particular curriculum, or style. Mr. B likes to use the computer for his work, and I also like the benefits of worksheets or printables. It's hard to find something to fit both of our needs, that is affordable, and good quality. Insert Math Mammoth. I had never even heard of Math Mammoth before it came up for review, and after checking it out I was so very excited to try out the Light Blue Series for 5th grade.

This math curriculum is mastery based and utilizes conceptual learning. I'm sure you're probably wonder what in the world that means, right? Please say yes, because I know I was certainly wondering!

GOLDENDOODLE PUPPIES

It has been a great educational and homeschool experience raising these puppies, and researching all about them BEFORE breeding. Would you believe the one there on the bottom left is actually PLATINUM under that fur coat she has?! It's TRUE! Mr. B has had a lot of fun researching the taxonomy of dogs, and cats, looking into the genetics of dogs, why some shed and some do not (ours do not!) etc. It's really been a great experience for us! These are lessons he will carry with him forever because they're real life, happening now in our home, kind of lessons. All of the dogs (Mom, pups, papa bear) are all raised in our home-Even though the picture of mom shows her in the snow HA! I just love …
