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.

Masterbooks Elementary Zoology REVIEW

We have had the amazing opportunity to review the Elementary Zoology Curriculum Set for Masterbooks.com. This set, geared for the 3rd to 6th grade levels, includes a weekly lesson schedule, consumable student worksheets and workbook, tests, quizzes, and an answer key.
