One must learn by doing the thing. For though you think you know it,
you have no certainty until you try.

    ece-learningresources (Learning Resources for toddlers - 8 yo) - Find educational resources for toddlers through 8 years old. Please feel free to post: themes, ideas, recipes, educational links or anything that will help a child have fun as s/he is learning.

    To Subscribe, visit Learning Resources.



    Elementary-Lesson-Share (Elementary Lesson Plans, Ideas, Links... ) - Elementary-Lesson-Share (E-L-S) was originally created so that teachers and student-teachers could share their lesson plans and units. Over time it has evolved to be a broader forum for exchanging classroom tips, resources, and ideas. It also has sister mailrings/sites that focus on specific grade levels, e.g., third-grade-teachers.

    (A complete list of these grade level support groups names url addresses is included in the links section).

    Be sure to check out our group's archives where you can view the links, files, past messages. etc. Join in the collective exchange of information as soon as you feel comfortable with the process.

    EnchantingInk_HomeschoolCo-Op (Sci-Fi/Fiction/Fantasy& Myth Lover's HS) - A diverse Homeschooling Cooperative for those families that love all things Fiction: Science Fiction (Especially Star Wars!!!), Fantasy, Magic & Myths,Time Travel, Animal heroes, plus those Fiction serials that we all love... like the Series of Unfortunate Events, Harry Potter, and so on all the way to The Dragon Slayers' Academy, & the Magic Tree House books.

    These are the stories that capture our minds & hearts and deserve a place in our Homeschooing Curriculums. This site is for parents to swap ideas on how to use these topics in homeschooling making "school"fun for all of us. We will be creating a collective pool of information to pull from and creating a unique group of friends.

    We broke the "topics" out into other Yahoo Groups because the files/links got overwhelming. This will make it much easier to locate topics of interest. This is our main chat page, the other sites have topic based discussions & info: ex. mysteries or fantasy, to history or math/science/magic trick oriented pages. E.I.'s other Yahoo Groups are listed in the files area.

    Local members(near Andrew's Air Force Base,MD -Southern MD, DC & Upper VA is close) can get together for occasional fieldtrips/playdates, while the non-local (virtual) members can link up for online discussions of topics as well. I would like to do online book chats eventually for parents & kids. Books & downloads can be posted & a discussion time set -either by email threads on the topic or live chat. Kids can read/be read to/audio books -whatever helps to be prepared. Help in setting these up would be highly appreciated. Also online scavenger hunts.

    We'd love Craft Project ideas,Dioramas pics/ideas, share Recipe/Party ideas that go with our fave Fictional themes, fave book & authors lists (for kids & adults), plus fave movies + reviews, gaming (board/card/video), Anime, Animation, comic books, graphic novels, & cartoons.

    We see a big gap in the homeschooling community in utilizing Science Fiction & Fantasy as a legitimate theme for homeschooling curriculums. Please feel free to add to all of our sites.

    entrepreneursathome (Entrepreneurs at Home) - If you are an entrepreneur and are ready to do something big with your life, boy, have we got a group for you!

    Entrepreneurs of all ages have been sharing their philosophies, project ideas, successes, and questions on this list since 2002. We've written an ebook, created an annual international conference (http://www.EntrepreneurDays.com)and have seen several members launch successful Internet careers.

    We love to talk about selling on eBay, investing in real estate and learning to market on the Internet.

    And now we have once again made history by turning this very group into a product you can offer and earn a 50% affiliate commission on. We recently moved to a real site hosted by Sharyn Law-Davis of Australia!

    Entrepreneurs At Home is where we continue to share in a private forum and we'd love to have you join us!.

    Our new site even has an affiliate program so you can invite your friends to join and earn passive residual income as long as they are members!

    Many of the regular posters here are Guest Experts at the new site and have posted wonderful articles.

    This quote sent in by Elizabeth, one of our members, characterizes who we are:
    "I hope you never again think of faithfully serving God as merely not sinning a lot, doing 'business as usual,' or just not quitting. True faithfulness as a steward is much closer to extraordinary entrepreneurial excellence!"
    ~~Bruce Wilkinson in A Life God Rewards

    If you are ready to change your life and do something meaningful while working toward financial freedom, join us at our new location: Entrepreneurs At Home.

    It may just change your life, too! Rhea! Owner

    A member said it so well, "It works for us, but most everyone I know thinks we're nuts and "wasting the whole day" when we sleep until 10:30 or 11. I think they are "wasting the whole night" when they go to bed at 9! Nice to meet all of you. Wendy
