I’ve got some fun stuff to share with you. Here is a penmanship program called New American Cursive. There are three books in the series. It is a Palmer handwriting that was created to remove unnecessary strokes. It reminds me of the simplicity of Handwriting Without Tears but retains a more traditional letter shape. The curlicues have been removed, and the books are bound at the top to give lefties equal access!

Next up are several products to accompany the Apologia science curricula. These are lapbooks that have been created to go with any of the elementary or secondary Apologia Exploring Creation science books. They come in CD format or already printed out. Interestingly, for the secondary level you can even choose between first and second edition, in case you are working from an older book. I have an Exploring Creation with Physical Science (2nd ed) Lapbook Journal in stock to look at. I can order any of the others or the CDs if you are interested. The journal is several inches thick with hundreds of pages and contains a vast array of material to help reinforce the concepts learned in the course. This would be ideal for kids who need to do more than just read to learn the material. (Please read the description under each picture)
This book of pages is literally fatter than my phone book–it is huge! The retail price is $75, but I will be charging $60 as an introductory price for the next month. The CD format is about half the price, but I am not sure how much savings there is after you pay (in time and money) for printing out all the pages you will need. They recommend using a 3″ binder to store all the papers.

This is another product that goes with the Apologia secondary science curriculum: Vocabulary Cards. Again, I have the Physical Science in stock but can order any of them.

And to end with something fun…. these cute math story books came in on consignment.
The four Sir Cumference titles are:
They are for sale individually at $4.17 each.
