Horse Notebooking Pages

Posted in Homeschooling

Project 365 – #263 Munchkin is looking forward to her upcoming horse (equine) study.  Part of my preparation involves getting some notebooking pages done for her.  She really enjoys using notebooking pages rather than just plain paper.  I decided to make both black & white pages as well as full color photo pages. Both Horses Notebooking Pages sets are now part of the Marine Corps Nomads Homeschool Resource Library. They’re still free, but they’re now hosted right here. All of the free homeschool resources are available in one easy-access location. You can sign up for free access to the resource…

Today, we were just experimenting with some of the different features and programs that came with it.  We played a game, tested out the note taking tools, had fun doing a little drawing, and playing with some of the picture features.  There was a good bit of laughter and “this is so cool” going on…

Project 365 – #261 Have Thine Own Way, Lord written by Adelaide A. Pollard Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way! Thou art the potter, I am the clay: Mould me and make me after Thy will, While I am waiting, yielded and still. Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way! Search me and try me, Master today! Whiter than snow, Lord, wash me just now, As in Thy presence, humbly I bow. Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way! Wounded and weary, help me I pray! Power, all power, surely is Thine, Touch…
