This Is How We Put Together Our Evaluation Portfolio for Year 1.

How to Organize Your Evaluation Portfolio
​I can’t tell you how excited I am to be at the end of the year. I don’t know about you, but I’m in need of a break.

A break from the routine, a break to enjoy a slower pace, a break to enjoy some leisure time and a break to hopefully muster up the impetus to start planning for next year.

Geography Year 1 Books and Curriculum for Homeschool
Geography? For First Grade?
