Review: Thinking Like an Engineer

By 4 Comments

Do you like it when your children and students ask questions, and have interest light up their eyes?  I would not have thought of my lad as being an engineer….but for the past few weeks he’s been designing,creating and asking questions as we work through Thinking Like an Engineer by Innovators Tribe. It has been fascinating watching his mind at work and his delight that genetic engineering is considered ENGINEERING!!!

So what can I tell you about Thinking Like an Engineer?


I can tell you that my son loves this program.  He doesn’t fight the learning but eagerly approaches his lessons, and when he tries a project he keeps at it, making sure to follow the rules laid out for him.  It’s a self-paced, STEM program that focuses on engineering, using hands on challenges to motivate the student.  Students can work through the program at their own speed, and they can go back and watch lessons again if they want to. It’s a very user friendly program, easily operated by a 12 year old.   The only thing he needed help with was downloading the software program.

When you login you come to this page, which shows you how far you are through the program.  Right now my lad is about 8% through the course, working at it three days per week, which occasional extra time on Friday.   We have missed the odd day due to the start of “cold” season, overall he’s been pretty consistent.

From there, you’ll find yourself on a page like this.   Where you are in the course on one side, the video on the other. That green arrow advances you in the lesson.

Sometimes in the lesson you will see a picture of Mr. Koeplin as he teaches, other times you see a variety of slides. 

The challenges were spelled out clearly, which was great for my precise lad.  He managed to make a tower about 6 feet tall, that would stand longer than 10 seconds as long as there was no wind at all.   Wind, even a very gentle breeze would cause it to topple over.

My lad was wondering what he’ll send up doing with the software, so I showed him the course outline.  Can you imagine his delight when he learned that he’ll be making a rollercoaster and a bridge!  🙂   So good to see excitement in a young fellow.

The book stack surprised me.  I expected maybe forty books all told.   But that lad ended up with much more than that.  I unfortunately walked in on him as he was putting a book on top …without it being centered (my bad!) and the books toppled over.  He did his best to recreate it for the pic but it just didn’t work the same.   

  
My Thoughts:
As I virtually had nothing with the program beyond setting it up and asking my lad where he was and what he needed to be doing… my thoughts are based on what I saw and heard.   Oh… and taking some video and pictures.  🙂

LOTS of questions and conversation.  “Mom, did you know…..”  “Mom, this was fun to do.”  “Mom, come see what I did!!” 

Some frustration “But mom, they said if it fell over at all I had to start over completely”… which led to me asking “Well, can you tell me why it fell down?”  His response: “A wind made it fall cause I moved.  I followed up with:  “So is that the fault of what you built or circumstances upon your control?”   Learning happened, understanding dawned, and he learned all the different factors that engineers have to take into account.   I think it would be good to build those questions into the program, to help the students work through potential issues they run into, and perhaps they have, but I haven’t listened to the entire program.   If they did, my son doesn’t remember them doing so.

 My Son’s Thoughts:
My overall opinion: “They did a good job.  I liked it.” 
Specifics: “They did a good job explaining all of the stuff.  They were really good at explaining how to do the 123d software.”  
Didn’t like: “It would be nice if their full screen would actually become full screen, cause their screen is kinda small.”
Recommendation:  “Get this program, because if you are at all interested in engineering of any kind, they will teach you about it.”

Canada Book: Symbols of Canada

By 2 Comments

This is a fantastic book if you want to learn about the symbols of Canada.  Learn the history of our country as well as the provinces as you see each of the symbols laid out clearly. They are clearly textually and visually spelled out. 

This book is fantastic.  


 From the pull out clearly showing all the symbols, (one side english, the other french)

I thoroughly appreciated the good mix of text and image.  This book isn’t just about showing you the symbols, but also about teaching you about the provinces and country they represent and why.

The first 20 pages are dedicated to Canada as a country.   Talking about her history, the gradual change in her flag, how our land grew, initial flags of different areas as well as the symbols Canada holds to today.

Each province is given a two page spread showing you the location of the province, the history, coat of arms, flag and other symbols.  It does a thorough job of walking the reader through each province and it’s identity.

My Thoughts: 
If you can’t already tell.. this is a fantastic resource for anyone in the course of learning about Canada. An excellent resource for digging deeper into the whys of our symbols, how flags have changed over the course of time, and just watching the development of this beloved land of mine.

Review: Flashes of Genius Series

By 2 Comments

Today I have for you four books in the Flashes of Genius Series by Luca Novelli. They are Darwin and the True Story of Dinosaurs, Einstein and the Time Machine, Leonardo da Vinci and the Pen that Drew the Future, and Newton and the Antigravity Formula. 

Quirky, that’s what I want to call these four little books.   None of them are very long, between 112-128 pages, making for a quick read, especially since most pages have at least one drawing on them.

Each book follows the life of one famous person from the past, telling their story in the first person, told in a very expressive fashion.   In Darwin’s case, he explains that he was accused of saying man comes from monkeys “even though I never said that”.

There are numerous pages of facts, delineated by a grey outline around the page.   The print on these pages was smaller than in the rest of the book, making them very easy to discern.  These pages gave facts not otherwise talked about in the rest of the book.  For instance, I learned the Newton “one time, he fixed one ee on the sun until he nearly ruined his eyesight“, and in Einstein’s book “small amounts of matter can be turned into large amounts of energy“.   The facts all differed, but where very interesting.

I have to admit, I am not really sure what I think of these books.  I’m put off by the story in the first person, I find myself wanting to dismiss what it says, and I’m not entirely sure why.  Each book closes with a glossary on the scientist involved, explaining some terms relevant to the topic.  This section also included black and white photos. 

I thoroughly appreciated that Darwin’s theory of evolution was indeed presented at a theory, though at other points the book pointed to it being a fact.  Which I don’t believe.  Evolution hasn’t been completely proven, and should be seen as a theory not a fact. 

Do I think these four books are worth looking at?
Yes.   You can be amused at the line drawings as you learn real facts about the scientists life and the work they engaged in.  There is some solid material in these books and that should not be discarded. 

With Leonardo we learn about how he was the greatest thinker of the Renaissance, he had his hand in so many pies and he kept thinking and learning.
Einstein and how he learned about light and put together his Theory of Relativity.
Newton with his laws of motion, developing calculus and laws about gravity.
Darwin and his theory of evolution and his journey around the world. 

All fascinating topics that every student should learn about.

Review: Canadian History-Based Writing Lessons

By 2 Comments

 Here I am today showing you an outstanding language arts curriculum produced by the great IEW people with Canadian History Content!!!!!    How wonderful is that eh?  It is called the Canadian History-based Writing Lessons. 

Okay, so I’ve heard it said that you can’t use IEW writing lessons unless you have a good grounding in how their system works. In fact their website will tell you this:  These lessons are designed to be used by an instructor who has been through the Teaching Writing: Structure and Style seminar.  In practice I have learned this fundamental fact, if you take your time and you follow the lesson plan, your students will learn.  That said, will they learn as much as if you took the time to do the lessons and fully understand their system?   I don’t know.  I do know that my son is learning and I sorta took the seminar but haven’t really retained the information.  I find the IEW people have been nothing less than helpful whenever I’ve called upon them for help as well.. so don’t let the instructor training part freak you out…really, don’t let it.


Trust your instincts and your ability to follow instructions and you will do just fine. 


Now that that, is out of the way, let’s talk about what you get.  For this review I received the teacher’s manual…wow…ever so helpful, and the student book…. lots of space to write even for my space hungry boy.

The particulars.
The student book sets out the scope and sequence of the course nicely.  Letting you know the history topic to be covered as well as the writing lessons: style, vocabulary and structure.   Very clearly laid out so you know what you are working towards.

The teacher’s manual contains copies of each of the pages, so that you know you and your student are working off the same page and lesson.

Instructions are very clearly laid out for your use.  You don’t have to guess what you are to do next.  Answers are provided.   Allowing you to guide your children if necessary and to check their work easily.

As I mentioned earlier, there is lots of space for the student to write (you’ll need one for each student).  My space hungry boy doesn’t complain about needing more room.  I’m not showing you pages of completed work as my lad is (the older he becomes) less inclined to let anyone potentially see his less than perfect handwriting or work!

My son, even though he tends NOT to be a fan of writing curriculum, has been delighted to learn about Canadian history while improving his ability to write well. It solves the “but why do I have to learn THIS” struggle as all I have to say is “good to learn more about Canada eh?” He automatically agrees.  🙂  Win win eh?



Now along with these two books you get downloads from IEW.  
The Student Resource Packet and Lesson Checklists.   The Student Resource Packet is an invaluable part of the program and shouldn’t be neglected.  Don’t forget to download it!  Printing it off and getting it bound would be a great way to keep it all together easily. 

The checklist is helpful to make sure you’ve covered everything you are supposed to in a given lesson.  If you are inclined to grade the work, a grading system is included.

What do we think?
It’s a great curriculum to use, we’ll be putting it aside to use as our language arts program next year.  It’s a lovely middle school program that will serve our needs well after we finish the writing program we are currently using.

Review: Marine Science for Kids

By 2 Comments

Marine Science for Kids is part of the for kids series put out by Chicago press. These books are fantastic resource for helping children explore a particular topic, in this case Marine Science.

In this book you will find career highlights, 21 different activities, clear well-developed images that show the vast variety of fauna and flora in the underwater environment.  Did you know there was such an animal as a tripod fish?   I had no clue a fish could use it’s tail for balance… did you?

Explore careers such as whale researcher, an aquarium director and others.  I really appreciated the human element they showed in these career highlights, giving the path the individuals took to get there, and what inspired them along the way. 

Walk with me as I show you how great a resource this is for your classroom whether you are in a public school or in-home school. The myriad of activities include writing assignments, hands on science experiments, art and many more.  There are 21 activities to expand your learning and cement it in well.

Seven chapters highlight our journey through Marine Science, with lots of pictures, readable text that draws you into the Marine environment.

The table of contents spells out the activities contained with the chapter making it easy to choose which one you want to work with.  Geared for a variety of ages making this book a delight to use with multiple students.

The clearly written activities spell out well the items you need to complete the activity as well as step by step walking you through what you need to do for successful completion.

I had a firm appreciation for all the images found throughout, breaking up the text nicely and adding sight to what words can’t fully convey.

My 12 year had little difficulty reading the passage that I had him test out, but I don’t know if he would be able to read the whole book and understand it all.   The text is definitely geared for middle school and up.   The well written headings, and good chapter outlines would make it easy for him to find the information he was looking for though.   The glossary and index at the close of the book would definitely be of aid as well. 

I am sure that you will be delighted with this book as much as I am.  I am looking forward to using this book with my lad, probably in grade 8 or 9 to teach him marine science.

Review: Journey Through Learning Lapbooks

By 2 Comments

The Greatest Inventors has been a delight to us to use over the past few weeks. We’ve laughed, we’ve talked, and we’ve discovered so much thanks to A Journey through Learning Lapbooks.  Let me tell you all about it!

Now I do need to tell you this… we haven’t gotten as far into this lapbook as we wanted to.  You know what happened?  First we had vacation, then I got a NASTY migraine that wiped me out for a week, so we’ve only worked through the first six or seven inventors.
But it’s been such a delightful process of discovery… we are looking forward to finishing this lapbook up!  

A Journey through Learning Lapbooks is owned by Paula and Nancy.  They started their company with a desire to provide fun and educational studies for homeschooled students to engage with. They know have a team of six individuals that they work with.  They provide good quality lapbooks to supplement various other programs as well.

The Greatest Inventors lapbook dives us into the worlds of 18 different inventors. An Inventor is someone who thinks of new ways to solves problems. As my son commented “Like when Ant-man learned that ants will live in plastic ant homes that he made!”  

 You get a biography for each inventor that touches on the highlights of their life and their notable Invention(s).  Each inventor has a lapbook element to put together.  Some include writing in point form, others longer sections, I found each element was unique to that inventor.   

How we used it.

I printed off the book.  It’s not too bad.  I chose to print off the biography pages though I could have chosen to just read them off the computer, but that just gets complicated sometimes (as I don’t like putting PDF’s on the tablet).  🙂  The lad and I took turns reading the pages and deciding what was important to pull out.  

Occasionally we’d find an invention we didn’t know about.  Like.. swimming fins!  So we would stop and look them and up learn more about them.

One of the inventors I most connected with was John Deere.   Growing up in a farming community I could talk to my lad about the importance of not having clay stick to your digging implements.  This made sense to my lad and he immediately connected that with how hard it is to dig in our clay soil when the clay sticks to our shovels.   It was great to reread our John Deere book. And to reminisce  with my lad about how he used to love the Johnny Deere books and to make our John Deere slide puzzles.    It was great!  🙂

I am looking forward to learning about : Guglielmo Marconi, Louis Braille, Eli Whitney, Robert Fulton, Thomas Jefferson, George Stevenson, Thomas Edison, Jonas Salk, George Washington Carver, and Alexander Graham Bell among others.

Generally speaking the reading level I’d put around grade 3/4.  But at the end of the book there are ways to expand your studies, with additional books you can read, biography pages and more.

I love the conversations generated between the lad and I.  It’s fun to learn about different people and the activities that shaped their inventions.  How different it was from how we live now.  Where we fly without even thinking about it, and how others risked their lives just to get up off the ground.  Flying a kit to learn about electricity, which again, we don’t even have to think about using, how easy it makes our lives… from heating hot water, to helping us get around at night, and letting us have computers. 

I also liked helping my lad learn to listen to an oral presentation and then learn how to take down notes from that presentation.  He’s got more to learn in this regard but he’s well on his way.  It’s an excellent skill to learn and not one that I anticipated doing this study.   We started him off just using the biographies provided, but then added listening to videos to increase his understanding. 

We liked this lapbook about the Greatest Inventors, and have a desire to keep learning about innovators from around the world. It’s rather fascinating what people can come up with isn’t it?

In case you think you need to make a lapbook with a lapbook study (and dislike the idea of figuring out how to fold your file folders .. despite AJTL’s excellent instructions), you could do what the lad and I do.  We make it into a scrapbook (in essence).  This means we can organize the lapbook elements in the way we want, add extra notebooking or biography pages easily, and put them into a three ring binder for easy storage.  it’s a method that works well for us.   We just paste the elements onto cardstock and we’re done. 🙂   It makes it work for eh?

Review: Everyday Homemaking with Everyday Cooking

By 6 Comments

Want to try a new cookbook?   Well, Everyday Homemaking provided me with a collection of tried-and-true recipes in their book Everyday Cooking.  Included in this cookbook are numerous hints to make your cooking journey simpler, while emphasizing whole foods.  

When you open this cookbook (choosing from either a red or blue cover), you will find a great table of contents clearly breaking the book into sections for cooking, and for hints.

You can tell she comes from a large family cooking standpoint as she has a variety of ways she tells us about in order to save a goodly amount of time in the kitchen.   From handly convenience foods, to make your own cream soups along with how to do batch cooking.

She takes her time and talks like you are sitting with her in the kitchen, chatting over how to make a meal or save time to do other things with your family. 

There is such a plethora of recipes to choose from AND Vicki tries to make it easy by offering different ways to make the same recipe (so if you don’t have a pressure cooker, make it as a casserole, or cook it on the stove top).   If you want the step by step way of making bread she’ll give the long way, or the short way.  

Here’s one I want to try with my lad yet.

HINTS!   Oh my the hints included.  Scattered throughout the book.  Just lovely helpful things that make it easier to be a good homemaker and cook.

We made a whole variety of meals, such as bread, muffins, pork chops, deviled eggs and more.  We worked on trying recipes from different sections of the cookbooks.

My lad was impressed that he was able to make deviled eggs.  Though he did suggest it would be helpful to draw a picture showing which way was length wise on an egg.  🙂

What are the things that I appreciated:

  • Equivalency lists! Did you that 3.5 cups of almonds is equal to a pound?  Great to know eh?
  • How to make sauces and extracts and things that you use ALL THE TIME when you are cooking.  Did I get around to trying any of them?  No.. but time will come. 🙂
  • For those that are into low-carb or gluten free, suggestions are made. 
  • Her desire to help people eat healthier.
  • her mini food and nutrition unit for students was a good read through and something I can work on with my lad this year. 🙂 
  • a well done index, being able to find what you need easily is a wonderful thing. 
  • Clear description (along with pictures) of good kitchen items.
  • Clear description (along with pictures) of the different grains/wheats one can use in their cooking. 

Recipes we tried and our thoughts on them:
The muffins… we discovered that they taste great with a slab of homemade jam on them.  🙂  They turned out more biscuity than muffiny though.

The bread….the lads devoured it, again with homemade jam.  Though we didn’t use the odd ingredients as we don’t have them in the house and I wasn’t buying them for two loaves of bread. 
Deviled eggs.  This is a recipe my lad made.  Mixed reviews.  I thought them better than some I tried but not as good as the ones we’ve most recently had.
Pork Chop Casserole…I liked this, hubby found it bland, the lad dug into the pork chops and ignored the rice.  (Typical of him to do that though)
Chops in Herbs and Wine.  I liked the taste of this recipe. The lad liked the meat, hubby didn’t touch it… as he was in the mood for spaghetti and meatballs so did that instead.  
Chicken and Noodle Casserole.  I used her basic recipe but changed it up a bit…using rabbit instead of chicken, and cooking the noodles with the rabbit as a casserole and adding a few more herbs.   This was excellent and would happily make again.

Things I would love to see improved:

Vicki mentioned that this cookbook was used to help her children learn how to cook, as such I thought it would be a great book to help my lad improve his repertoire.  We did not find this the case as all ingredients were in imperial measure (not in grams or metric).  Occasionally items such as a stick of butter were used…this one really had him wondering and we asked a friend who lives stateside what a stick of butter was equivalent too.   YEAH for friends!  Adding in worldwide equivalency measurements would easily resolve this issue.  I later found this explained near the end of the cookbook, adding it to the recipe would make it easier.

Adding a glossary would be really nice, it would give a ready answer to questions like “Mom, what is sponging?”  Instead of having mom give a completely blank look.  I know how to cook, I just don’t always know the right terminology at the moment!  🙂

End result:
There is much in this cookbook that I like, the tips and helps and lessons.. GOOD STUFF!   As I’ve gone through this review, I discovered that I think of this cookbook more as a “way to cook naturally” rather than a whole foods cookbook. Why? Many recipes used ground grains and my hubby’s whole food cookbooks will use the grains whole (like his red wheat shepherd’s pie which is really good).  This book teaches you use natural foods instead of the overly processed foods.  Which is a great thing to do!

Thing is.. I’m a good cook. I like trying new recipes as long as they don’t ask for ingredients that I don’t have regularly in the house.  My initial understanding (that this would be a book to help my lad increase his repertoire of things to cook) didn’t pan out, once my lad hit one too many ingredient that I didn’t know what it was he just shut down and said “can I use “x” cookbook instead?”  Therefore, I tried out a few recipes, some that worked  others that didn’t.  It’s a decent cookbook.. the hints and ideas found within the pages are a .. for serious.. treasure trove of helpfulness to people learning to cook a more natural diet.  If you want to cook better this book will help you!
