Description
We took all the hard work out of planning Morning Time!
The plans include fourteen weeks of Morning Time activities based on the Early Modern era. These are perfect for families who are studying the Early Modern Era in a four-year history cycle. (Note: These plans do have a North American focus and term one spans the time period from the Revolutionary War and late 1700s to the early 1800s and westward expansion. They end before the Civil War.)

Designed for grades 1-6 the plans can easily be adapted to include preschool to adult age groups. 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:
- Memorization – Preamble to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights
- Poetry – Oliver Wendell Holmes and others
- Music appreciation – Custom-written lesson plans authored by Genie Shaw of Barefoot Abbey based on the music of the Early Modern Era. These are truly unique and not available anywhere else.
- Picture study – Come Look With Me: Art in Early America
- Nature Study – Using Exploring Nature with Children and Handbook of Nature Study we will take a look at lichen, evergreens, caterpillars, ants, butterflies, and rocks and minerals.
- Art – American history themed art tutorials
- Math – Bedtime Math and other appropriate history-themed math activities
- 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
