Ancient History Term 1 Morning Time Plans

Description

We took all the hard work out of planning Morning Time!

The plans include fourteen weeks of Morning Time activities based on the Ancient times. These are perfect for families who are studying the Ancients in a four-year history cycle.

This is a digital product. Nothing will be mailed.

Designed for grades 1-6 the plans can easily be adapted to include preschool to teens. We believe this can be a complete education for younger elementary students (through grade 3) — just add phonics, math, and handwriting.

Topics and subjects included in these plans are:

• Prayer – Prayers from the Old Testament
• Memorization – Passages from Isaiah, an Old Testament book in the Bible. These passages all point to the coming Messiah.
• Geography – Asia and the Middle East
• Poetry – Shakespeare
• Music appreciation – The orchestra and Carnival of the Animals
• Math – The Warlord Series
• Picture study – Selections from the era
• Art – Drawing Ancient subjects
• Nature Study – Nature walks, earthworms, birds in winter
• Reading Suggestions – Fabulous selections to accompany the subject areas
• Read Alouds – Four great chapter books scheduled for you to choose between

The lesson plans are designed for ease-of-use for new Morning Time Moms and veterans alike. They feature:

• Intro material with tips and instructions for doing all the subjects
• A blank weekly grid for you to schedule each subject daily or add resources to the plan
• OR a loop schedule laying out all the subjects and activities to be done — just do the next thing(s) each day
• Printable booklist to take to the library
• Copies of poems, prayers, and memorization to print for your family
• An easy-to-use web page with links to all the videos and tutorials in the plans, as well as links to the books and art supplies for your convenience

* Note: In order to complete some of the subjects as written you will need to purchase the following:

• Exploring Nature with Children
• Warlord Bundle from Math Geek Mama and the Warlord book series (Books can be borrowed from the library.)
• Books can be purchased or borrowed from your library. We encourage appropriate substitutions.

If you do not wish to purchase any of the above resources those subjects can be omitted from the study or you can adapt the lesson plans.
