NOTICE ON PICS - All pics on this blog (unless otherwise stated) are my personal work. DO NOT take pics from this blog without seeking my permission first! Bless you.

Welcome to my blog. It is updated weekly with pictures and projects from our homeschool - maybe you can find something to inspire you :) I have a (no longer updated) materials page elsewhere on my website and will, occasionally, post my homemade materials in this blog.

I'm married to Tim (delivery driver and gorgeous musician), have 2 daughters, live on the south coast of the UK and have 1 aging cat (Hemmingway or Hemmy for short). I love reading, yoga, crafts, baking, daft old comedies, music and teaching.

NOTE ON PICTURES: This shouldn't be necessary but I have, sadly, noticed growing cases. Please DO NOT link directly to pictures on this website - it steals my bandwidth and is BAD! I CAN trace you if you do and I will take action.

Pictures from our day and a file :)

We are having a fun Halloween/Autumn theme to our work at the moment. April did pumpkin addition - she had to glue the right number of small pumpkins on the large pumpkin worksheet I made her. Then she had to add them up and write the answer in:

 

 

She's also been doing some leaf rubbing with the set I made her the other day and sorting the leaf shapes - I made ours from craft foam :)

I've been introducing Rosie to the idea of algebra ... sloooowwly! We've been looking at function machines and I came up with a rather cute Halloween version of this - creepy spider web functions!

The file I made for this game is below - instructions are provided and you will need to have some dice handy. It's a nice idea (although not essential as you can just think up rules as you go along) to have some "rule cards" made up in advance, you can just write some by hand or (as I did) print some off at Mathwire.
