Free Topics of the Week  December 9 – 16

Free Homeschooling Resources

Here is our weekly digest of free topics which we can use in our Homeschooling class. I went through the resources with Charlie. I asked Charlie which resource he would like to study the most. Charlie let me know it’s the The Bill of Rights. I let Charlie know I thought The Bill of Rights would be fun to study. Although I couldn’t wait to check into Racing to the South Pole.

Mountains of the World

Mountains of the World

Mountains stand on every continent on Earth—and even between some continents, far under the ocean. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is a mountain range on the floor of the Atlantic. It stretches from north of Iceland almost all the way south to Antarctica.

Light and Heat Energy

Light and Heat Energy

A ball of gas 93 million miles away—the Sun—sends energy to us in the form of light and heat. Without it, we’d be nowhere. But what exactly is light? What exactly is heat? What can they do?

A Splash of Colors

Do you enjoy eating a chocolate bar or drinking a cup of cocoa? You can say thank you to Mexico. If you ever whacked a pinata at a birthday party, ate a tortilla or burrito, or if you like cowboys and rodeos, again, you can thank Mexico. Our neighbor is easy to visit. Just head south.

Racing to the South Pole

The Bill of Rights

The Bill of Rights

Some states insisted that a bill of rights be added to the Constitution. They proposed more than 200 amendments. In 1791, they became the first ten amendments to the Constitution. They are called the Bill of Rights.
