Oh, how I agree with your comment when if ever did we cover this in school LOL Teddy and Time book will be part of our history studies for next year. I really enjoyed your post, the quotes you selected and your thoughts on them. Thank you for sharing the notebook pages too! You’re the best! – Marstar

I wish I knew about all these great resources when I was teaching history! It’ll be a few years before my preschoolers are ready for a President Unit

@Laura -- The printable can be found HERE. I had to play with the print settings quite a bit to finally get it to print on one sheet of paper. So just be aware.

I was reading on another blog from Australia that the government is planning on implementing a filter to block certain internet websites for security reasons for children, etc. and that alot of blogs from American would be blocked. She also mentioned that China did the same thing. Do you have trouble viewing blogs from America?

Thank you for sharing all that you do with your homeschooling, Jimmie.

I saw a photo of the mini office you did that had a list of presidents with their photos, etc. Do you by chance have the link to the so that I may print it off for my children’s mini office?

I think our history classes focus so much on pre-Civil War that by the time it gets past it there’s not enough time to really study the rest, so we fly through the last half of our history.

My oldest son loves good old Teddy. He quotes him often. I was a “good student” too and never learned most of this stuff until I was homeschooling my kiddos. I did pick up some more interesting stuff in college. It is a sad tale to tell.

Indeed, no week passes without asking the same questions…’What did I learn in school?’ and ‘How come I can not remember even one schoolbook?’ I like to second the remarks on the importance of spending time outdoors by stating that I do remember the backyards in detail of all the houses I have lived in as a child, but I can not remember how the schoolrooms looked.
