course runs from early Jan to mid-May, progressing through the key points of a hive’s lifecycle. The sessions start in the winter when new beekeepers learn basic information about the bees themselves, the proper equipment they will need, & how to assemble their hives. As the season progresses, new beekeepers learn how to introduce bees to their new hives, how to monitor the progress of their bees, when to add new components to their hives, & so on to pest control & finally harvesting the honey!

I love this science curriculum. It approaches "big" subjects in a fun, very age appropriate way. This first book is great for a crystal unit study.

reserve a coner of chalboard for the daily almanac - students check the newspaper to record the weather conditions. Other ideas: Chart the high and low temperatures. Chart the difference between the high and low at different times of the year. Calculate the ratio of sunny days to cloudy days — weekly, monthly, yearly. Create a bar graph of the number of minutes of daylight in each day. Keep track of how often the weatherman was correct. Create a pie chart of the weather conditions — monthly, yearly.

Amy Miller I LOVE this recipe! We call it beefy noodles. I add a can of mushrooms to it to make it extra hearty. Happy cooking!

Cheri Newman this recipe was SO yummy! I actually used a chuck roast rather than stew meat. I think a chuck is much more tender and tasty! I cute it into pieces the size of "large stew meat" -- it was a huge hit! Can't say that it's low cal, but sure is a comfort food.

Top 5 Must-Have Waldorf Toys totally agree with this list. Some might seem strange like the silks but my kids LOVED them both sexes. These are such open ended toys the kids can imagine so many things with them.

The problem we all live with — by Norman Rockwell (1894–1978), depicting an incident in the American Civil Rights struggle of the early 1960s, when Ruby Bridges entered first grade on the first day of court-ordered desegregation of New Orleans, Louisiana, public schools (November 14, 1960). Originally published in Look magazine. The painting is currently displayed in the West Wing of the White House, just outside President Obama's Oval Office.
