Accelerated Studies in Physics and Chemistry Program was a helpful part of our learning during a quiet afternoon session. It helped with writing down questions to explore later. For us, the value was in returning to it regularly.
A Pageant of History: Ancient Times was a helpful part of our learning as part of our home learning routine. It helped with asking whose perspective we were reading. We liked the direction it gave us while leaving room to add our own ideas.
Collins Geography - Our planet – 2 was a helpful part of our learning when we wanted a change of pace. It helped with talking about places beyond our own community. We would keep it in our regular rotation.
Canadian Creative Colouring: Animals was a helpful part of our learning on the days we learned together. It helped with trying an idea without worrying about perfection. It gave us a useful starting point, and we adapted the pace.
Famous Female Musicians Non Fiction Reading was a helpful part of our learning during a shorter school week. It helped with listening closely before trying something ourselves. We would use it again alongside the resources we already enjoy.
Aesop Manuscript was a helpful part of our learning in a small learning space. It helped with talking through a thought before writing it down. It worked best when we kept sessions short and consistent.
Collins CAPE Economics - CAPE Economics was a helpful part of our learning at the kitchen table. It helped with making time to practise a useful skill. A useful resource, though we needed to adapt more than we expected.
Canadian French Geography and Mapping Skills was a helpful part of our learning between our library visits. It helped with revisiting useful words in short sessions. We made room for extra discussion rather than trying to finish quickly.
2GS SET – New Zealand was a helpful part of our learning in our morning learning block. It helped with talking through how we reached an answer. It was a welcome addition, though we still adjusted it to suit our week.
All About Reading was a helpful part of our learning alongside a weekly co-op. It helped with returning to familiar sounds with confidence. We would recommend looking at the publisher’s sample before deciding.
