I appreciate your interest and hope to be of service to you and your family this year!

Here is a vocabulary workbook to meet 4th grade standards. Your child will continue to use a dictionary, learn new homophones and homographs, while learning Latin and Greek root words. Because of the nature of root words, they will actually be learning ways to decode any new word they come across in the future. You will probably learn a whole new set of vocabulary with them, so plan to give them time and encouragement as they work their way through 4th grade.

Climb aboard the virtual homeschool bus as we travel to Virginia.  Our destination… Arlington National Cemetery. 

Just like a real fieldtrip, you will need to set aside one school day to complete this virtual fieldtrip. 

Purchase a folder with three brads for the notebooking pages.

Complete the activities in any order, but we suggest beginning with a formal learning time as you go over the Background Information and then gathering around the computer for the Off We Go, Virtual Tour.  Next, visit the Museum and read the Fun Facts.  Complete the Notebooking Pages and then have a Lunch Break.  Complete the Activities and Crafts after lunch.

At the end of this fieldtrip we hope that you feel like you’ve actually visited Arlington National Cemetery! 

Buckle up!

Universal Orlando Resort has a reputation for cutting-edge attractions and entertainment. Inside its two theme parks, Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, your family will experience the latest in ride technology.

You'll love Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, Shrek 4-D, The Incredible Hulk Coaster, Men In Black: Alien Attack, and The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man. Many of the rides at Universal Orlando Resort combine 3-D film with live action and special effects. You're going to have a great time. Use this guide, written specifically for 8-12 year-olds, to plan your vacation and make a list of the things you want to see first!

Both Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure are covered in this book.

Click around throughout these pages for Universal fun facts, trivia, and links to more information about the rides, shows, and characters you'll see inside the theme parks. CityWalk and the three Universal resort hotels are also covered. Finally, take note of some useful symbols. These will appear throughout the book as attractions are mentioned.

S = Scary
D = Dark
A = Awesome: don't miss this attraction
T = Thrilling: think roller coasters
W = Wet: you might get soaked

Want to meet some characters? No problem. Look for information throughout this book on where to find them in Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. A summary of the top character hang-outs is included at the end of each theme park section.

Sometimes you only have one day (or less) to see everything a park has to offer. The tips page at the end of each theme park section gives you a plan for seeing as many top attractions in the shortest amount of time possible. Keep in mind these plans are ambitious. You might need to take some breaks during the day to give your parents a rest!

Many Universal Orlando Resort attractions have height requirements. When this is the case, there will be a number after the ride listing that looks like this: 40". That means you have to be at least 40 inches tall to ride. Many of the attractions require riders who are less than 48 inches tall to ride with an adult.

Are you hungry? Of course you are. Running around the theme parks takes a lot of energy, and that requires a lot of snacks. At the end of each section, look for a short description of the restaurants and food available in that part of the theme park.

Universal Orlando Resort 2012: A Planet Explorers Travel Guide for Kids is the only guidebook you'll need to plan a great trip. Have fun!

Don't miss the other titles in the exciting Planet Explorers series for 8-12 year-old travelers. There's Planet Explorers Walt Disney 2012, Planet Explorers Disneyland, Planet Explorers Disneyland Paris Resort, Planet Explorers New York City 2012, Planet Explorers Chicago, Planet Explorers Philadelphia, Planet Explorers Las Vegas, Walt Disney World Character Finder 2012, Planet Explorers Disney Cruise Line, Universal Orlando Resort, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter 2012, and LEGOLAND Florida 2012. Have fun!

Please note: this guidebook DOES cover The Wizarding World of Harry Potter inside Islands of Adventure. However, there is also a more detailed book about this part of the park in our series. It is called The Wizarding World of Harry Potter 2012: A Planet Explorers Travel Guide for Kids. Enjoy!

Algebra 1A

Fall Semester

Are you looking for a way to educate your student in math yet it is your worst subject or you have younger children who require more of your time and you need to free up your schedule?  Welcome to Rebecca Peterson’s Algebra 1A Class on Currclick LIVE.  This class is a full year long replacement class when both Algebra 1A and Algebra 1B are taken.  The class is designed to help parents by taking the load off of them for mathematics.  Students will take the online LIVE classes which meet 3 times per week.  Homework will be assigned, quizzes and tests given, and assessments sent at 9 week intervals as well as end of semester and year end final grades.  All grading and assessing will be done by Rebecca Peterson.    

This class meets or exceeds your state’s standards and will be acceptable on transcripts for your students future education.**

No books to purchase!  The teacher provides all sheets needed for your student’s education.  The paperwork is available on the teacher’s Currclick LIVE page for easy downloading and printing.  These pages include the teacher’s notes from class, all homework, quizzes, tests, and worked problems.

Mrs. Peterson will conduct 3 weekly classes (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday).  Each class will be 1&frac;12; hours in length.  Homework will be assigned and reviewed at the beginning of each class.  Extra help tutoring sessions are also included in this class.  If your student needs extra help, Mrs. Peterson is a quick email away and a LIVE tutoring session will be set up. 

All quizzes and tests will be reviewed and all problems worked so the student understands mistakes made.  This class is designed to be a positive environment with everyone learning and succeeding. 

All classes will be recorded with links sent out following the class meeting.  This provides several benefits, 1) students may review the class, if needed and 2) if a student needs to miss a class, the class is there for them to watch so they may stay on track.

This is the simple version of the "Sharing Shakespeare" series for those who want to get right to reading another Shakespeare play…Particularly for those who already have another “Sharing Shakespeare” play, so they don’t need the information on “How to Study Shakespeare” or another copy of the Timeline of Shakespeare’s Life, and all the other goodies that are in the nine original “Sharing” e-books I’ve already done. These lite versions will contain just the overview of a particular play, and the two versions of the Character-Line Chart (and a timeline if it’s a history play). This will allow me to put the other individual plays out quicker. 

Of course, if you find you will be doing quite a few plays, you may eventually find yourself just needing to get the complete Sharing Shakespeare with Students. But in the meantime, “the play’s the thing!” Add books and readers and you're ready to experience one of Shakespeare's classic plays.

See my small booklet, Why Share Shakespeare,  for more information on Why Shakespeare is important, and the larger book, Sharing Shakespeare, for information on teaching all 38 plays.
